A duplex assay for quantification and qualification of adeno-associated virus (AAV) using the QIAcuity® Digital PCR System

This study tested a workflow for quantitation and qualification of AAV samples using a duplex assay on the QIAcuity dPCR instrument targeting both an insert (GFP) and the viral backbone (AAV2-ITR). With very low intra-assay and inter-assay CVs <6.5%, we demonstrate one of the main benefits of dPCR: reproducibility.
