Comprehensive Algorithm for Quantitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction [PDF]
Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions (qRT-PCR) have become the method of choice for rapid, sensitive, quantitative comparison of RNA transcript abundance. Useful data from this method depend on fitting data to theoretical curves that allow computation of mRNA levels.
