Real-Time qPCR/qRT-PCR Methods: Amplification in Template-Free Controls

Similar sequence-free amplification of human glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase for real time RT-PCR applications.

One of the major applications of real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is relative quantification, where the expression of a target gene is determined as a ratio to a stably expressed reference gene, the so-called housekeeping gene. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPD) is a glycolytic enzyme, which is active in all mammalian tissues and is frequently used as housekeeping gene in ...

Robust regression methods for real-time PCR

Novel internal controls for real-time PCR assays.

In the 19 years since the first descriptions of the PCR (1 ), nucleic acid amplification methods have made the transition from research to clinical laboratories. Molecular diagnostics are now firmly established as part of laboratory medicine, with applications in genetics, oncology, pharmacology, and infectious disease. Routine diagnostic applications of these methods have been made possible by...

Real-Time Quantitative PCR for Detection Cell Free Fetal DNA

Basically, diagnosis inherited diseases in gestation is very important. But amplication of the progress in early stage of pregnance is the serious and great aim for rapid application of risk assesment for both and fetus. Fetal genetic tissues collected through techniques such as amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) for prenatal diagnosis of fetal genetic diseases. These procedures ...
