World Microbiome Day: Pathogen detection using the new dPCR Microbial DNA Detection Assays on the QIAcuity
Bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasitic metazoans are ubiquitous in the environment and are part of all aspects of human life. This makes the detection and monitoring of microbes important to understand their biological functions. To get the most out of microbiome samples, their preparation and analysis requires optimal workflows and efficient sequencing technologies. This webinar series over five days helps you get to the bottom of your microbiome sample with insightful background knowledge and useful tips and tricks.
Day 3: Detecting pathogens with digital PCR
Pathogen detection using the new dPCR Microbial DNA Detection Assays on the QIAcuity
Detecting and monitoring microbial pathogens, their antibiotic resistance and virulence genes from diverse samples is highly important to combat them. DNA-based methods, like hydrolysis probe-based assays, digital PCR and the novel dPCR Microbial DNA Detection Assays, enable their rapid profiling and identification and will be the focus of this webinar.
