Nanoliter high throughput quantitative PCR
Understanding biological complexity arising from patterns of gene expression requires accurate and precise measurement of RNA levels across large numbers of genes simultaneously. Real time PCR (RT-PCR) in a microtiter plate is the preferred method for quantitative transcriptional analysis but scaling RT-PCR to higher throughputs in this fluidic format is intrinsically limited by cost and logist...
متن کاملGuidelines for quantitative rt-PCR.
Something I notice often in supervising new graduate students is their frustration with the irreproducibility of their biological data. For example, I am asked frequently ‘‘how many biological replicates do I need for qRT-PCR’’? The answer, of course, lies first with the students themselves. They need as many replicates as will persuade them of the validity of their observations. However, for m...
متن کاملNormalization of circulating microRNA expression data obtained by quantitative real-time RT-PCR
The high-throughput analysis of microRNAs (miRNAs) circulating within the blood of healthy and diseased individuals is an active area of biomarker research. Whereas quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based methods are widely used, it is yet unresolved how the data should be normalized. Here, we show that a combination of different algorithms results in...
متن کاملNormalization of microRNA quantitative RT-PCR data in reduced scale experimental designs.
Proper normalization of quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) data is a crucial component of gene -expression analysis. Although arbitrarily selected housekeeping genes have been used to normalize many published mRNA RT-PCR datasets, there is a growing awareness that such normalizers should be first validated empirically. The use of stable reference genes is particularly needed for qRT-PCR of microRNA ...
متن کاملApplying Data-Driven Normalization Strategies for qPCR Data Using Bioconductor
High-throughput real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a widely used technique in experiments where expression patterns of genes are to be profiled. qPCR is widely accepted as the ”gold standard” for analysis of gene expression. Recent technological advances have greatly expanded the total number of genes that can be analyzed in a single assay; qPCR exp...
