What differs in this reaction from a traditional pcr | Free AI Content | Essay Helper

You are doing a PCR that requires 1.6ng of DNA in 2uL of sample. You have 100uL of stock DNA with a concentration of 4ng/ul. Using reasonable pipetting volumes (ex. don’t use too much of your sample but don’t pipette an unreasonably small volume), how would you dilute your stock DNA sample to meet this criteria? Use the procedure in Exercise #3; show all formulae, variables, units and calculations.
