Which of the following is not an application of PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction)?

  1. A
    Purification of isolated protein
  2. B
    Detection of gene mutation
  3. C
    Molecular diagnosis
  4. D
    Gene amplification

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

PCR is used for amplifying specific DNA sequences. Applications include detecting gene mutations (like in cancer or genetic disorders), molecular diagnosis (like COVID-19 or HIV detection), and gene amplification for cloning. Purification of protein is a downstream process involving chromatography and centrifugation, not PCR.
