DNA amplification by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is schematically outlined in the diagram to the left. There are 3 general steps to the process that are repeated for a number of cycles to exponentially increase the number of copies of a specific target region.

PCR is a method for amplifying segments of DNA, by generating multiple copies using DNA polymerase enzymes under controlled conditions. As little as a single copy of the DNA segment or gene can be cloned into millions of copies, allowing detection using dyes and other visualization techniques.
