Optimizing Taq polymerase concentration for improved signal-to-noise in the broad range detection of low abundance bacteria.

BACKGROUND:PCR in principle can detect a single target molecule in a reaction mixture. Contaminating bacterial DNA in reagents creates a practical limit on the use of PCR to detect dilute bacterial DNA in environmental or public health samples. The most pernicious source of contamination is microbia...
