May I know the tools or software to design the random primer for PCR?
Thanks in advance.
If you are talking about random primers, why the random primer we use for RT-PCR can't be used? You can simply buy them.
Why do you need random primers? As negative control?
you can use any irrelevant primer set and NCBI blast to see if it binds your DNA.
the important requirements is template strand , nucleotides , enzymes
You can check with NCBI Primer3 or UCSC Genome Browser.
Could you suggest what are the steps to overcome of primer dimer during PCR?
