In this video tutorial, I will show you how to create real-time PCR primers by using NCBI's Primer-BLAST free online software.

The Primer-BLAST software is great since it uses the Primer3 algorithm to design optimal primers, while simultaneously blasting these sequences on the genome. This ensures the primers will not amplify off-target regions.
