Has anyone made PCR from tissue or cell samples without extracting DNA by phenol-chlorophorm precipitations And how were the results like if you compared them to those PCR results done by extracted DNA material? I have tried to make PCR from cervical swabs samples to find HPV DNA. But there has been some difficulties Yours Raimo Pollanen(M.Sc.) Pollanen@CSC.FI
