Kinds of primers
Primer
Types of Primer
1. Single primer/ Probes
Used to amplify and label DNA fragment for sequencing reactions
Probes for southern hybridization
2. Primer pair (F/R)
Primer pair limits the range of DNA amplified during reaction
Error rate one in 100 base pairs
3. Degenerate primers
