Amplification?

An article by Beggs et al. entitled "Characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Direct Repeat Sequence for Use in Cycling Probe Reaction" reads: "Another advantage of CPT compared with target-based amplification technologies, e.g., PCR, is that target sequences are not amplified, thereby minimizing the risk of carryover contamination." That seems to contradict the current content of the Wikipedia article. I'm not sure what's right and what's not. —Vespristiano 07:31, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
