Various authors recommend DMSO and glycerol to improve amplification efficiency (higher amount of product) and specificity (no unspecific products) of PCR, when used in concentrations varying between 5-10% (v/v). In the multiplex reaction, however, these adjuvants gave conflicting results. For example, 5% DMSO (Fig. 42) improved the amplification of some products, decreased the amount of others whereas some loci were not influenced at all. Similar results were obtained with 5% glycerol (data not shown). Therefore, the usefulness of these adjuvants needs to be tested in each case.
BSA, in concentrations of up to 0.8 (higher than previously described) appeared to increase the efficiency of the PCR reaction much more than either DMSO or glycerol. It should be noted that BSA did not have an inhibitory effect on any of the loci amplified (data not shown).
