| Primer3 picks primers for PCR reactions, considering: oligonucleotide |
| melting temperature, size, GC content, and primer-dimer possibilities; |
| PCR product size; positional constraints within the source sequence; |
| and miscellaneous other constraints. All of these criteria are |
| user-specifiable as constraints, and some are specifiable as terms in |
| an objective function that characterizes an optimal primer pair. |
