The PCR song by Scientists for Better PCR

[evilgenius2003]

Brilliant!

[Guitarristandgoats]

Well, this is epic

[bentalwady]

really its amazingggggggggggggggggggggggg­gggggggg i like itt

[TheCaptainOfLife]

They played this in my Genetics lecture yesterday :)

[alexanderdhaenens]

PCR is a way of life

[boringtree]

xD this is totally my sense of humour

[jiahexu2]

Very very interesting. I am thinking of putting into my PCR presentation. Hah~

[DenisGaucher]

"Who's your Daddy".. haha!

[i19011991]

Great!!

[vampyremelz]

lol sweet

[vamperor]

Geez, that is great!

[FotiXGkD]

Awesome.

[gawjussbabee]

ha funny :P

[dianapad]

HAHAHAHAHA!!...this is the funniest thing i ever seen...makes my PCR days more fun!

[freescorfy]

So far this is uncalled for. Great!!!!!!!!!

[FotiXGkD]

Epic win. Too much awesome on 2 minutes and 13 seconds.

[nhojmabon]

This is awsome.

[subduralspaces]

This is awesome but I wish it mentioned Har Gobind Khorana. Because his name is awesome and would probably rhyme with lots of stuff.

[LabSnap]

I really think a battle of the bands between these BioRad folks, ABI and the Eppendorf group is called for. I smell a YouTube Contest coming up on LabSnap?

[DixieChkk77]

Too funny. Really funny. heheh

[EvelcyclopS]

LOL This is for BIO-RAD!!!

[EvelcyclopS]

up to the minut e with a Real-Time PCR machine!

[SiniyCHEL]

Hey people, was that Paul Mc Cartney at 2:13? =)

[cocokineticstupac]

Oh, you have GOT to be KIDDING? This has to be the most ridiculous song I have heard in a long time.

[TheBlueLight1]

i flew my roflcopter to teh spermbank and gave them MOONSPERM!!!!!

[TheBlueLight1]

i wants u all!!!!

[Emsta]

This is such a geek!love song! Is it possible to buy this somewhere?

[marypepis]

OMG It's amazing, it's too good! PCR solve our lives many of us couldn't live without it!!!

God Bless PCR song loooooooooooooool

[AlmightScoop]

hahahhaha

[Aquarian1821]

This is too funny, because its true...Really creative

[dardzwdup]

its not creative you jerk

[jslegrand]

Abernathys4 made a trduduction in italian (at least I think it is). I found it funny, so i've decided to make my own, in french:

PCR, quand tu doit détecter une mutation!

PCR, quand tu doit recombiner!

PCR, quand tu doit trouver c'est qui le papa!

PCR, quand tu doit résoudre un crime!

By the way, excellent publicity, I laughed myself to tears.

[sarssipius]

Shiiiiit I just spilled my coffee LMAO... Awesome it just reminded me years and years of PCR... It's brilliant commercial idea from Biorad...

[Technosauria]

No me lo creooo!!!xDDDD q m atraganto d tanto reírme xDDD en verdad, m da miedo pq estoy estudiando biotecnología y no quiero acabar así xDDDDD

[ChibiWargy]

yeeja! Sauritaaa! zorretín has landed here! xD

PCR when you need to detect mutation (detect mutaaatioooon)

PCR when you need to recombine (recombiiiiine)

PCR when you need to find out who the daddy is (who's your daaaddyyy?)

PCR when you need to solve a crime (solve a criiiime)

Mola xDDD

[giantsockmonkey]

FUNNY!!! I love it!!! XD

[stormguy110]

that ad was crappy

[kaitou7]

Me encanta!!!Sobretodo esas caras de emoción que tienen y cuando coge el termociclador y lo besa...el amo!!XD

Bio-Rad rules!!

[comparenetworks]

We just posted a Behind the Scenes music video for the PCR Song that we produced. Check it out. Type in "pcr song behind" and you'll find it.

[GeneGoddess]

It's awesome, almost as good as the "final version". Thanks!!!

[abernathys4]

PCR! Quando tu necessiti cercare mutazioni.

PCR! Quando tu necessiti unire di nuovo.

PCR! Quando tu necessiti sapere chi il padre è.

PCR! Quando tu necessiti risolvere un crimine.

[zuperchest]

Friki al maximo!!!!!!!!

[Noe84]

Alguien tan amable como para traducir la letra o transcribirla... que no me entero y tiene pinta de ser muy friqui, jeje

[krol83]

La canción de la PCR.

Hace tiempo, para amplificar ADN,

tenías que crecer un montón de células pequeñitas.

Luego llegó un tipo llamado Dr. Kary Mullis,

y dijo que se podía amplificar in vitro también.

Junta tu molde con tampón y unos cebadores,

nucleótidos y polimerasas también.

Desnaturalizar, alinear y extender,

es increíble lo que calentar, enfriar y calentar pueden hacer.

[krol83]

PCR, cuando necesitas detectar mutaciones.

PCR, cuando necesitas recombinar.

PCR, cuando necesitas saber quien es el padre.

PCR, cuando necesitas resolver un crimen.

[Shorvi23]

Grad students everywhere now have a source of inspiration! Keep going 8th years!!

[scienterprize]

I like the source of inspiration part! Totally agreed, Awesome video!

[robhenst]

Who's your daddy?! LOL

greatest clip ever period!!! haha well done BIO-RAD

[yoahali]

it sucks, it reminds me of the "we are the world, we the children" 80's song

[VeroniqueCG]

Fuck, where's your head man!! This is a gorgeous scientific ad. The video is one of the best I have seen and I loathe ads. These guys got it right. Regardless of your negative comment, this is played in biochem labs all over, so go suck lemons. Everyone with a sense of humour adores it. Thank gravy you are in a minority. Fucking spoilsport!!!

[NiewiastaZDnaJeziora]

love this, that's fantastic to listen when doing a thousandth PCR...

:)

[edobiotec]

I don't know... Would I cry, or would I laugh?

ahahahhaah, the second one!!!

[Lepid0ptera]

This would be better if Kary Mullis weren't a complete psycho. It's kind of hard to idolize someone who doesn't believe in the ozone hole, global warming, HIV as the cause of AIDs, but does believe in astrology and talking raccoons.

[GeneGoddess]

My spouse (another Biochem PhD) has met him. Says he's a complete pot-head whose grad students did most/all of the grunt work (what a shock). But PCR changed the world...

[VerusAnimus]

haha this advertisement is funny!

[luiscarlosqg]

exelente

en breve lo enviaré a todos los biologos que conozco.

jajajjajajaj

[bailunrui]

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

[bruckerm]

AMAZING!!! I think that when you start any thermalcycler it should play that song. Simply brilliant.

...when you need to know who your daddy is.

[valkendal]

lmfao!

bravo!

[Adamantan13]

a very sensitive song

[JudithNM]

WHAT A WONDERFUL SONG !!!

It's very funny, but I'm not going to kiss my thermalcyclers  ;-)

Greetings from Spain !!!

[tamatha2002]

bio-rad *would* need to make a song to promote their thermalcyclers... they suck.

ABI all the way!

[123jmr321]

typical ABI brainwashed rep

[tamatha2002]

I'm not an ABI rep, but I have used both ABI and Bio-Rad.

I just wrote a whole paragraph out and deleted it... Why am I arguing about PCR?

[GeneGoddess]

Umm, it's not about the machine, it's the IDEA that is do darn funny. I've used many different machines, have my preferences, but honestly don't care who sang this song. What matters is that it is the best geek-scientist parody I've ever seen! I don't care if the company behind the song is Bio-Rad, Eurogentec, or Invitrogen: they deserve a high five for creativity!

[tamatha2002]

I agree... The song is hilarious. Kissing a thermalcycler is hilarious.

Looks like you guys need to get out of the lab more often so that you can learn how to recognize a joke

:\

[dianapad]

Kissing a thermacycler is the funniest part!..hahaha

[aismul]

OMG! I'm a biochemist and this is easily the best thing since the discobery of Taq!

[nikewong]

i'm so obsessed with the song

[britt2002720]

This might just be the funniest thing I have seen in ages - thank you so much for posting it!

I needed a good laugh!!!

[cottbott]

FUN! Kind of a "we are the world" for the genomics generation

[cjmegli]

You make a long friday much better- I am now inspired to order some new primers

[njbrideau]

this video is fantastic!

[warakan]

can i just say, "AMAZING!" - you just warmed my nerdly heart :)
