Bio-Rad's new digital PCR technology found to provide an absolute measure of bucleic acids
Bio-Rad Laboratories's new digital PCR technology, called Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR), was shown to provide an absolute measure of bucleic acids in a sample in the November 15 issue of Analytical Chemistry.
The QX100 ddPCR system overcomes the high costs, limited throughput, and complicated workflows that hampered adoption of earlier commercial digital PCR systems.
This system introduces the third-generation of PCR, enabling precise measurements of DNA concentration, to provide absolute quantitation as a digital readout in a low-cost and practical format.
