What is the difference between a one-step and a two-step real-time PCR reaction?

In a one-step reaction the reverse transcription reaction and the real-time PCR reaction are done in one tube, making this a closed tube assay, so contamination can be avoided. It saves pipeting steps and time, and is easy in handling, making it ideal for high throughput screening. In a two-step reaction the reverse transcription reaction and the real-time PCR reaction are done in separate tubes.

It gives a more flexible way of working in that the cDNA can be used for more than one real-time PCR reaction and can be archived, eliminating the need to continually isolate RNA. For convenience Bioline sells the cDNA Synthesis Kit (BIO-65025) separately if you wish to take a two-step approach. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
