Abstract

In competitive PCR, which is used to quantify target DNA an internal standard is needed. Here we present a simple method to construct homologous competitive standards. The method, which is based upon deletion of a portion of the target DNA, does not require any additional primers. This is the simplest method developed thus far to construct a competitive standard. The whole procedure. from construction of a competitive standard to quantitation by PCR, can be completed within a single day.
