Melting curve analysis
text:
Melting curve analysis is an assessment of the dissociation characteristics of double-stranded DNA during heating. As the temperature is raised, the double strand begins to dissociate leading to a rise in the absorbance intensity, hyperchromicity. The temperature at which 50% of DNA is denatured is known as the melting temperature. Measurement of melting temperature can help us predict species by just studying the melting temperature. This is because every organism has a specific melting curve.
