This webinar provides general considerations for performing a gene expression analysis on the QIAcuity digital PCR system, including sample input, dilutions and proper controls. We will present how the QuantiNova LNA PCR Assays provide highly sensitive and accurate locked nucleic acid (LNA)-enhanced digital PCR quantification for mRNA and lncRNA targets, detecting even the smallest expression changes at the lowest concentrations.

We will further demonstrate how to analyze gene expression data with accuracy and reliability using the QIAcuity Software Suite and generate publication-quality fold change and fold regulation results.
