RPC and Real-Time PCR for Lyme Disease Detection

RPC has over 25 years of molecular analysis experience. Included in their expertise is Real-Time PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction), a powerful tool used to detect DNA sequences. This same technique plays a vital role in addressing the escalating tick population—a consequence thought to be a result of climate change. In this article, we explore how Real-Time PCR aids RPC scientists in identifying the causative agents of Lyme disease.
