What is PCR Test?

What is PCR Test?PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is defined as a common name given to the reactions applied to enzymatically amplify a unique region between two segments of known sequence in DNA.

PCR is known as a diagnostic test and shows the RNA of the virus in coronavirus. In other words, the PCR test is a test performed during the coronavirus process to show the identity of the virus in the body. PCR, which is also used for different diseases, can detect even a very small number of microbes in the body. The PCR test can also be called a molecular diagnostic test. The test can detect the presence of the virus in the body, as well as the antibodies the body produces in response to infection.
