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.

Step : 3 Extension Generally, the reaction mixture is heated to a temperature intermediate between denaturation and annealing at this stage. 72°C is the ideal temperature for Taq polymerase. The polymerase extends the primers from 5' to 3'.
The extension time of PCR depends upon the synthesis rate of DNA polymerase and the length of target DNA. The typical extension time for Taq DNA Polymerase is 1 min/kb, whereas that of Pfu DNA polymerase is 2 min/kb.
How to Calculate PCR Test Hours? First, determine the total number of tests (T). Next, determine the time per test (t) in hours. Next, determine the number of testing machines (M). Finally, calculate the PCR test hours using the formula H = (T t) / M.
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.
Primer extension PCR The extension time depends on the target sequence's length and is typically 30 seconds to a few minutes. The three steps are repeated for multiple cycles, with each cycle doubling the amount of DNA in the sample.
A typical PCR cycle includes an extension step at 72°C after denaturation of double-stranded DNA and annealing of oligonucleotide primers. At this temperature the thermostable poly-merase replicates the DNA at an optimal rate that depends on the buffer and nature of the DNA template ( 1 ).
Use 20–35 cycles. Use fewer cycles when template concentration is high, and use more cycles when template concentration is low. If the extension time is too short, there will be insufficient time for complete replication of the target. Generally, use an extension time of 1 min/kb.
