CSI PCR in 60 seconds: BS
Its astonishing how a process that can take a full day of work or more is made to look like a 60 second step.

Hahahah.
Awesome!
Where can I get that kit and equipment?
WTF???
I can barely thaw the Taq buffer that fast!!
Maybe if it was my sister in the toll booth
Obviously they have learned how to manipulate the time-space continuum…
its very true , we cannot even thaw our reagents so quick. Well the funny part is that it takes atleast 2 hours to extract DNA from Buccal swabs.And wow that was way too fast. If this could happen in reality I would finish my research in a year or less. Funnnyy hahhaha….
I want this equipament and techniques !!! NOW !!! kkkkkkkkk
Come on, CSI has always been that way. 99% of their techniques are totally bogus.
Wow. I want this technology.
lol … last time i did a PCR it took me a few hours. had a good laugh with this video
lol 60 seconds. think of the we could save.
why not make a commercial like the Geico ones. “I just saved 6 hrs on my PCR”
I konw why its so fast:
Can’t believe that I all the time thought that the best way to be more efficient is to use a multi-channel pipette.
they don’t use primers, DNTPs, buffers or taq, and they don’t do temperature cycling either. Let’s all do like CSI and cut out those cumbersome bits
By the way guys, you don’t always need to do extractions, with clones and mtDNA I just stick my sample in and boil at 95 for 5 minutes, just before PCRing, and that works just fine.
at least thats a good ad. for Applied Biosystem!
Haha. Ik weet wat je bedoelt Angelco.
Hahahaha amazing!!! I’d like to know the brand of the cycler they are using….I wonder if they have a fast protocol for chromatin IPs as well ….lol
It would make a super entertaining show if every episode was like, we would tell you who the killer was, but we have to wait until next week for our STR profiles! Yeah, there’s a reason for time cheating. Everyone knows TV is not real life.
It’s even funnier than that. Cycle sequencing takes about 3 hours. They put bucchal swabs directly in an ABI377… no prep, no cleanup. That 377 is toast. Someone will have to purge the capillaries and refill them.
You think it doesn’t matter, but this is what the public thinks of DNA sequencing… that they can do it from a Q-tip in 15 seconds. I’ve been to lots of CSI labs… the budget for this show could probably fund every CSI lab in the country.
hahahahahahahahahahahhahahha very good joke:d
it normally takes few hours:d
and THAT is why prosecutions have a hard time with convictions. “CSI Effect” is a real problem…
i want to buy this PCR-System!!! xD
Pozdrowiam ze Suchej Beskidzkiej Polska (Poland)… Semik!!!
Muszę powiedzieć o tym na swojej uczelni bo to całkiem ciakwe. Czemu na uczelni studenci siedzą i robią to 2-4 godziny, a w CSI zajmuje im to 60s? Jazda:)
well… at least they didn’t put it in a centrifuge (without contraweight) this time ^^
