This five-step guide helps you select suitable reference genes, so you can incorporate the appropriate normalization into your gene expression analysis.

This app note demonstrates how the fundamentally different approach of dPCR, compared to qPCR, reduces susceptibility to amplification-related bias resulting in high-level multiplexing experiments that are simpler, more cost-effective and produce more precise data.

This app note demonstrates that dPCR offers improved accuracy and resolution of small changes in gene expression, compared to qPCR. The system delivers superior reproducibility across different operators, especially when detecting low-abundance targets or subtle expression changes.

These guidelines provide a step-by-step workflow for establishing a higher-order multiplex dPCR assay using the dPCR RNA-Plex Assays and the QIAcuity OneStep High Multiplex PCR Kit.
