Digital PCR System (dPCR) (Pre-Owned)

Digital polymerase chain reaction (digital PCR, DigitalPCR, dPCR, or dePCR) is a biotechnological refinement of conventional polymerase chain reaction methods that can be used to directly quantify and clonally amplify nucleic acids strands including DNA, cDNA, or RNA. The key difference between dPCR and traditional PCR lies in the method of measuring nucleic acids amounts, with the former being a more precise method than PCR, though also more prone to error in the hands of inexperienced users. Highly sensitive and accurate in molecular detection, this technology has demonstrated applications like trace DNA detection, rare mutation detection and copy number variation.
