to clarify the doubts most people have in the comment section, the first set of primers are added along with the dntps ,buffer , taq polymerase first , then after the first round of amplification, the product from the first PCR reaction is used as the template for the second reaction, where the second set of primers are added.

Perhaps a silly question, but do you combine both sets of primers in a singular master mix? Or do you add the result after a first PCR run with the second primerset seperately for a second run?
Excellent video, but I don't really understand why having two sets of primers minimizes the probability that the second set of primers will bind non-specifically to other regions...
So it involves 2 PCR reactions right. The first PCR product is technically a template for the 2nd PCR. That increases specificity. The mastermix that you design should have outer and nested PCR mix. Outer PCR amplifies a larger region and nested 2nd uses first as template targeting a smaller, internal region of the original sequence. Hope this makes sense
Primers are short sequences of nucleotides that bind to a specific site on the DNA, initiating the replication process. They direct the DNA polymerase to start synthesizing new DNA, but they only amplify the region between the primer binding sites, not the entire molecule. Therefore, only the specific segment flanked by the primers is amplified.i hope this helps
@shashpalsidhu2420 i think that i lack imagination 😂 since this probably doesn't happen immediately as the video shows ,they first amplify the first region by many cycles until they obtain it and then use the second set of primers and proceed the same way
Could you please help me by sharing my contents with your friends group/ college group. I put huge efforts in making these videos but unfortunately not a lot of people are watching this.
The first set of primers (green ones) are used to shorten the region which has our targeted segment. As both the red and green ones are non specific , so 1st the green ones are used to shorten part of the DNA which has the target region (produce both the specific which carries the target segment and non specific region). Then in the 2nd round the red ones binds with only that region which has the target segment ,free from non specific segments.
Because we have to shorten the region first by amplifying a smaller region that contains the sequence of interest from the bigger sequence so the chances of amplification of our desired sequence is higher don't forget that sometimes we can amplify directly from a chromosome and that quite huge the primers might bind to another region
We do nested PCR when we have a large size of template and we want to amplify a small portion of it. To avoid non specific amplification, we separate our gene of interest from the rest of the sequence and then amplify it on the basis of its specificity.

it's a pcr ception 😨

Its used as a mastermix
It's added sequentially. One after the other. First set added, procucts taken, then the second set added to the products
what if we design specific primer for specific region(that RED region in your video)??
Excellent video, but I don't really understand why having two sets of primers minimizes the probability that the second set of primers will bind non-specifically to other regions...

Will the two sets of primers have slightly different annealing temperatures?
Yes both two sets of primers will have diff annealing temperatures according to their nucleotide seq and gene compositions @@hariprasath3955
I still don't understand because i thought a Primer amplifies everything from the binding site to the end of the molecule?
Primers are short sequences of nucleotides that bind to a specific site on the DNA, initiating the replication process. They direct the DNA polymerase to start synthesizing new DNA, but they only amplify the region between the primer binding sites, not the entire molecule. Therefore, only the specific segment flanked by the primers is amplified.i hope this helps

Oo my god tq so much @@shashpalsidhu2420
Your the best sir👌
Good work sir
am i to understand that the green primer set is depleted relative to red set of primers leading to more specificity of amplicons?
Thank you so much!

What ia the rationale of nested PCR?
Excellent

Do you need to isolate your pcr priduct after first run before you run 2nd pcr? Or do it in same reaction?
Nope
are you saying the first primer set, the green pair, acts independent of the 2nd pair? otherwise how are you eliminating nonspecific apmlicons?
The first set of primers (green ones) are used to shorten the region which has our targeted segment. As both the red and green ones are non specific , so 1st the green ones are used to shorten part of the DNA which has the target region (produce both the specific which carries the target segment and non specific region).

I already follow your playlist...
@@karabikalita6321 Oh that's really nice.....good to hear about that.
please make a video on tailed PCR. thank u.
Sure I will upload a video regarding that
Make a video on loop mediated pcr
I will try
What not we use 2nd set of primers first ?
Because we have to shorten the region first by amplifying a smaller region that contains the sequence of interest from the bigger sequence so the chances of amplification of our desired sequence is higher don't forget that sometimes we can amplify directly from a chromosome and that quite huge the primers might bind to another region
Why don't we use secondary primer(specific primer) in the first place?
Same question 😅
We do nested PCR when we have a large size of template and we want to amplify a small portion of it. To avoid non specific amplification, we separate our gene of interest from the rest of the sequence and then amplify it on the basis of its specificity.
