FAQ
Extension Time Extensions are normally performed at 68°C. As a general rule, use extension times of one minute per 1000 base pairs (e.g. 3 minutes for a 3 kb product) For products less than 1 kb, use 45-60 seconds. Products greater than 3 kb, or reactions using more than 30 cycles, may require longer extensions.

Duration of extension will be dependent upon amplicon size (30 sec per 1 kb). The period of elongation depends upon the desired length of the amplicon and the enzyme used. Since qPCR amplicons are short, this is typically 5–30 sec.
Extension is achieved by using the loosened nucleotides of each base to grow the complementary DNA strand. The end result is two double-stranded products of DNA. The temperature that is used during the extension phase is dependent on the DNA polymerase that is used.
Extension: The recommended extension temperature is 72°C. Extension times are generally 20–30 seconds per kb for complex, genomic samples, but can be reduced to 10 seconds per kb for simple templates (plasmid, E.
The extension rate of Pfu DNA Polymerase is lower than that of Taq DNA Polymerase. Therefore, during the extension step, allow approximately 2 minutes for every 1kb to be amplified (minimum extension time of 1 minute).
What does it mean to say that extension by DNA polymerase III proceeds 5'→3' ? DNA polymerase opens the replication bubble starting at the 5' end of the DNA molecule. DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to a growing strand, moving in the 5'→3' direction.
A typical primer is about five to ten nucleotides long. The primer primes DNA synthesis, i.e., gets it started. Once the RNA primer is in place, DNA polymerase "extends" it, adding nucleotides one by one to make a new DNA strand that's complementary to the template strand.
An extension time that is too short may fail to produce any amplification products or may result in non- specific, short products, while overly long extension times can causes diffusely smeared electrophoresis bands.
The third step in a PCR cycle is the extension step. The extension step, also referred to as the elongation step, is the PCR step in which Taq polymerase adds nucleotides to the annealed primer. The process of repeating the denaturation, annealing and extension steps of PCR is known as PCR cycling.
