Finding the Right Primers: Using NCBI for RT-PCR Primer Design

Specializing in the design and troubleshooting of qPCR, mutagenesis, and cloning experiments at IDT, Scientific Applications Specialist, Adam Clore PhD, speaks about the intelligent selection of PCR primers. Topics include identifying transcript variants for your target of interest and selecting primers that amplify only specific transcripts. Adam also discusses the growing SNP database and the potential impact of SNPs on qPCR data, how to locate any SNPs that fall in your target amplicon, and the use of free NCBI and IDT tools to help you avoid them.

Hi
I need to know that how to save primers sequence after making primers from "Pre-design qPCR library"?
