ORF cDNA Clones/MolecularCloud> | … The linearity and LoQ of the SARS-CoV-2 RT-dPCR assay were evaluated by quantifying serial dilutions of the N1 and ORF1ab synthetic RNAs (GenScript). Prior to dilution, copy number concentration of the stock RNA was determined using the Clarity™ dPCR system. … | Get A Quote |
In recent years, the usage of digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) for various clinical applications has increased exponentially. In this study, a dPCR assay optimized on the Clarity Plus™ dPCR system was evaluated for the absolute quantification of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak. The assay demonstrated good inter- and intra- assay precision, accuracy, as well as excellent linearity across a range of over 6 orders of magnitude for target gene quantification. In addition, a comparison of the assay on both dPCR and qPCR platforms revealed that dPCR exhibited a slightly higher sensitivity compared to... More
