🧬 What Is PCR? Understanding Polymerase Chain Reaction in Avian DNA Testing Overview Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)  is a cornerstone of modern molecular biology. Originally developed by Dr. Kary Mullis in 1983 , PCR enables scientists and diagnostic laboratories to amplify specific regions of DNA  from even the smallest trace samples. This amplification makes genetic material visible and measurable, allowing accurate detection of pathogens, genetic traits, and sex-specific

Last Update: 11/6/2025 ABOUT DNA TESTING – FAQ- Frequently Asked Questions Question: What methodology do you use to perform your testing? Answer: Affordable Avian utilizes industry-standard molecular biology techniques to ensure precise, reliable DNA detection and analysis. Depending on the specific test, we employ PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) , qPCR (Quantitative or Real-Time PCR) , and occasionally Lateral Flow Assays (LFA)  for verification. PCR (Polymerase Chain Reacti
