High quality qPCR reagents and master mixes are essential to ensure reliable results and excellent reproducibility for your real-time PCR applications. However, these reagents often come with high costs, in addition to the reaction volume when a limited amount of valuable samples or starting templates are available. A simple scale-down of PCR reaction volumes often poses a challenge with regard to achieving reliable results. This application note reviews the need for a qPCR thermal cycler with block homogeneity and temperature control accuracy to ensure the reliable and reproducible analysis of a wide variety of sample volumes without any differences in final results.
