NGS Service—Bio-Rad QX200 Droplet Digital PCR System

Summary

The QX200 Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR^™) System provides absolute quantification of target DNA or RNA molecules for EvaGreen or probe-based digital PCR applications.

Applications

• Cancer biomarker studies and copy number variation
Measure varying degrees of cancer mutations, detect rare DNA target copies, and resolve copy number variation states with superior sensitivity and resolution. PrimePCR ddPCR Assays are now available for mutation and copy number detection. These are predesigned, wet-lab validated assays.
• Pathogen detection
Employ the extreme precision of the QX200 System to quantify small fold changes in target DNA or RNA molecules in pathogen detection and monitoring.
• Next generation sequencing
Perform accurate quantification and qualification of NGS libraries without the use of a standard curve.
• Gene expression analysis
Achieve reliable and reproducible measurements of small fold changes for low abundance of mRNA and miRNA.
• Environmental monitoring
Test a wide variety of environmental samples like soil and water using the QX200 System.
• Food testing
Perform routine evaluation of genetically modified organisms (GMO) using validated ddPCR methods.
