Discover how you can streamline your workflow and get to answers faster using extraction-free PCR. In this session, our trusted expert Erik Wendlandt walks you through data demonstrating how Integrated DNA Technologies’ one-step master mix enables you to move directly from sample collection to PCR—eliminating time-consuming extraction steps without sacrificing accuracy. You’ll see performance across challenging sample types, including urine, saliva, nasopharyngeal swabs, stool, leaf punches, and cell cultures, so you can quickly evaluate whether direct amplification can simplify your processes, reduce variability, and accelerate your research outcomes.
