BEAMingĀ 


BEAMingĀ search for term

A process of cloning on beads in which a library of clones is grown on beads through the use of compartmentalized emulsion PCR. DNA and beads are diluted such that, on average, only a single bead and a single target molecule cooccupy a single compartment. PCR amplification grows a clonal population of molecules on the bead starting from the single target sequence. (Fan 2006)
