Single Pair Mode: Evaluate the melting point and recommended annealing temperature for an individual primer pair.
Batch Mode: Submit a set of primer pairs to calculate melting points and annealing temperatures for all of them at once.
The method is the nearest-neighbor thermodynamic model with empirically optimized parameters.
Tm values are calculated assuming standard PCR conditions.
Optimal annealing temperatures may require empirical optimization depending on template, primer design, and reaction setup.
