Minor histocompatibility antigens (MiHA) are critical elements for the immune response after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. They may cause both beneficial and detrimental effects ...
Two surveys of over 1,700 publications whose authors use quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) reveal a lack of transparent and comprehensive reporting of essential technical information. Reporting ...
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 ...
SARS-CoV-2 is shed in the fecal matter of infected individuals and, therefore, can be detected in wastewater using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Scientists used qPCR-driven wastewater ...
Recombinase aided amplification (RAA) is an emerging isothermal amplification method used for detecting various pathogens. However, RAA requires a complex and long probe to ensure high sensitivity ...
