11:30 AM - 12:30 PM Eastern Time

From detecting trace levels of virus to quantifying oncogenes in patient samples, quantitative PCR (qPCR) is the cornerstone of many diagnostic tests. At the basic research-level, scientists rely on qPCR to evaluate changes in gene expression in varying conditions. qPCR success depends on careful primer design, sample and reagent purity, template composition, and experimental technique.

This Technique Talk will teach you the tips and tricks needed for obtaining perfect qPCR results.
