'''PCR Protocol'''
 
1.) Get 3 replicate DNA samples each from two patients and one positive control and negative control sample for a total of 8 samples. Mix each of your samples with Taq DNA polymerase, MgCl2, dNTP's, forward primer and reverse primer. Each sample should be about 50 micro liters.
2.)Label 8 empty PCR tube with unique labels that correspond to their respective DNA samples. 
3.)Using one pipette per sample, to avoid contamination, transfer the PCR reaction mix to PCR tubes.
4.)Then place the samples into the PCR machine
5.)Set the PCR program to three stages. Stage one: 1 cycle, 95 degree Celsius for 3 minutes. Stage 2: 35 cycles, 95 degrees Celsius for 30 seconds, 57 degrees Celsius for 30 seconds, 72 degrees Celsius. Stage three: 72 degrees Celsius for 3 minutes and then hold at 4 degree Celsius
