  • The Use Of PCR Test In The Medical Community
  •  The PCR test for genetic diseases is one of the
    most commonly used tests for genetic diseases
    around the world. Polymerase chain reactions is a
    technique widely used to quickly generate
    millions of copies of a particular DNA sample,
    enabling researchers to take a small sample of
    DNA from a person's cells and amplify it into a
    large enough quantity to study in more detail.
    Although sequencing and analyzing the DNA of
    living organisms is extremely complex and
    expensive, the same process can be used to
    produce genetic material from living cells in a
    lab. By using different methods the researcher is
    able to examine how the DNA of a person who has a
    certain disease works and functions.
  • An example of the PCR test for genetic material
    is typing the HIV virus. In this case the
    researcher takes a sample of the person's HIV
    viral RNA called qPCR. This DNA is then treated
    with an enzyme that reads the qPCR. Once the qPCR
    has been translated into a real file that can be
    studied in a laboratory, the researcher is left
    with the raw data representing the genetic
    material of the individual that tested positive
    for HIV. This file will have information such as
    the person's age, gender, height, weight and
    health history.Visit PCR test

  • A similar type of testing called paternity
    testing looks at whether or not a child actually
    is the biological father of a particular child.
    This is also done through PCR testing. In a DNA
    paternity test the researcher takes a sample of
    the person's blood and uses it to amplify any DNA
    patterns that might be present. After the
    duplication of the DNA the analysis can determine
    whether or not the person is the biological
    father.
  • Another type of fast and sensitive genetic
    analysis is known as the covid-19 tests. This
    involves the use of an immune system stimulating
    protein. This unique protein is known to be
    extremely sensitive to changes in the genetic
    material. It can be used to look at changes in
    DNA double helix patterns. A positive result for
    this particular test, when compared to a normal
    DNA test will give an indication of whether or
    not the patient has a condition known as
    Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Have a look at
    Antibody tests to get more info on this.

  • A rapid antiviral PCR test for the purposes of
    diagnosis comes in the form of a nasal swab.
    Through this method a health care provider can
    determine if a person has an upper respiratory
    tract infection or a cold. This can be done by
    taking a sample of the persons nasal mucus and
    using the amplified products to find any
    abnormalities. This particular test is usually a
    gold standard in the clinical world when it comes
    to illness detection.
  • Polymerase chain reactions or PCRs are a part of
    many DNA tests. This is the process of turning an
    unknown DNA sequence into a specific one. The
    different methods of polymerization include both
    complementary and non-conventional DNA processes.
    The rapid testing of PCR products and polymerase
    chain reactions provide patients with the
    same-day results, which makes them a popular
    choice for many medical professionals.

  • Summary
  • ClearMD, located on the Upper West Side of
    Manhattan, is a medical clinic specializing in
    COVID-19 testing that offers both in-house rapid
    testing and gold-standard 24-hour RT-PCR COVID-19
    testing. ClearMD collaborates with one of the
    nations premier COVID-19 robotics laboratories
    to ensure that thousands of people in need of
    access can be tested for COVID-19 daily. ClearMD
    specializes in RT-PCR testing that is both highly
    accurate and uses next-generation viral genome
    sequencing to detect even the newest COVID-19
    variants.
