Real-Time Reverse Transcription PCR

چکیده
Real-time, fluorescence-based reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been transformed from an experimental technology into a mainstream scientific tool for the detection of RNA. This is because of several factors: 1) it is a homogeneous assay, which eliminates the requirement for post-PCR processing; 2) it has a wide dynamic range; 3) there is little interassay variation; and 4) it realizes the inherent quantitative capacity of PCR-based assays, making it a quantitative, rather than a qualitative, assay. These properties match the evident requirement in molecular medicine for quantitative data (e.g., for measuring viral load, monitoring of occult disease in cancer, or examining the genetic basis for individual variation in response to therapeutics through pharmacogenomics).
