Principle

サンプルロード、測定そして結果解析という、わずか3つのステップで、2時間以内にdPCRの結果が得られます。

ナノプレートでのdPCR反応の原理はこちら

Procedure

qPCR 実験のようにサンプル調整には、マスターミックス、プローブ、プライマーを96または24ウェルナノプレートへ加え、その後サンプルを加えるステップは存在しますが、このシステムでは、サンプルの分配、PCR増幅およびイメージングを1台の装置の中で自動化し、サンプルから結果までを2時間以内に完了します。ソフトウェアは、ターゲットシークエンスのマイクロリットルあたりのコピー数を計算するだけでなく、ポジティブサンプルやNTCなどのコントロールも同時に解析します。またこの解析は、同じローカルエリアネットワーク(LAN)内の離れた場所のPCでも行えます。

Applications

QIAcuity は、QIAcuity ナノプレートおよびQIAcuity PCR キットとともに、以下を含むデジタルPCR アプリケーションに利用可能です。

  • 希少な突然変異の検出
  • コピー数多型解析
  • 遺伝子発現解析
  • 病原菌の検出
  • ジェノタイピング
  • miRNA 研究

Software

QIAcuity ソフトウェアは、装置に直接または既存のローカルエリアネットワーク(LAN)を使用して、1台または複数のQIAcuity 装置を制御することができます。 QIAcuity ソフトウェアを使用して、デジタルPCR 実験、サンプルや反応液を定義し、ナノプレートに割り当て、そしてQIAcuity 機器に情報を転送できます。装置の運転終了後は、データ解析とレポート作成をすることができます。さらに、データを次の解析システムへエクスポートすることができます。このソフトウェアは、繰り返し使うプレートレイアウトやパラメーターに簡単にアクセスできるようなテンプレート機能を持ち、デジタルPCRの実験をさらに柔軟に拡張させることができます。

ローカルエリアネットワークに載せれば、そのコンピューターはサーバーとしてQIAcuity ソフトウェアの機能をホストし、クライアントとして機能する他のコンピューターにLAN を経由してアクセスできるようになります。これにより、複数のユーザーが他の居室からソフトウェアにアクセスしたり、複数のコンピューターにソフトウェアをインストールしなくてもブラウザを介してデータの解析ができるようになります。

Version 1.1.3
Show details
Version 1.0

The QIAcuity Control Software is an integral part of the QIAcuity instrument. It offers a GUI (graphical user interface) for basic functionalities such as plate setup, changing the order of plates to be processed, and monitoring the status of runs in real time. After a run is completed, the data are stored on the instrument’s memory and are sent to the connected QIAcuity Software Suite for analysis.

This new version of the control software includes system stability and performance reliability improvements. We highly recommend to update the control software of your QIAcuity instrument.

Note: The installation requires approximately 90 minutes.

Version 1.2

The QIAcuity Software Suite 1.2 is designed to be installed on a Windows PC that is connected to one or more QIAcuity instruments. The QIAcuity Software Suite enables the user to set up plates, analyze results, and monitor the status of runs in real time. For this configuration, the QIAcuity instrument needs to be connected to a network through Ethernet. Alternatively, a direct cable connection between the QIAcuity and the notebook where the QIAcuity Software Suite is running needs to be established. When connected to a network, up to 10 users may access the QIAcuity Software Suite via a browser installed on the client PC (Windows or Mac).

The following browsers are supported in the QIAcuity Software Suite:

-Mozilla Firefox (version 64.0.2 or higher)
-Microsoft Edge (version 44.17763.1.0 or higher)
-Google Chrome (version 71.0.3578.98 or higher)

The new QIAcuity Software Suite 1.2 offers a functionality that enables users of the QIAcuity Software 1.1.3 to upgrade to the new version while keeping the library of previously stored plate runs.

Note: If you have exported plates from QIAcuity Software Suite 1.1.3 that you would like to import and use in QIAcuity Software Suite 1.2, you will need to import the plates before upgrading from version 1.1.3 to version 1.2. You may then export the plates again. Future software version starting from QIAcuity Software Suite 2.0 will facilitate import of plates from previous QIAcuity Software Suite versions.

The new improvements are as follows:

-Support for the Nanoplate 8.5k 24-well
-Hyperwell functionality to combine several wells to one combined well for analysis
-Automated plate archiving functionality
-Functionality to show the number of single/double positives in 2D scatterplots
-VPF (Volume Precision Factor) to further improve concentration calculation (see related resources)
-Additional improvements for stabilization and troubleshooting


Show details
Version 3.0

The Volume Precision Factor (VPF) offers a unique feature to secure precision of concentration results obtained from a QIAcuity dPCR run. 
In general, Nanoplates provide partitions of fixed sizes that enable a very precise way of sample concentration calculation. Potential variation of partition sizes in Nanoplate batches, caused by different microstructure molding forms, can be addressed by applying the batch specific VPF. Furthermore, the VPF includes well-specific volume information and therefore further increases precision of concentration calculation in each well of the Nanoplates.

After downloading and updating the VPF file within the QIAcuity Software Suite, the VPF is applied automatically to the analysis of a corresponding Nanoplate batch. The VPF file includes information from all available microstructure molding forms and connected Nanoplate batches. It will be stored on the PC where the QIAcuity Software Suite is installed. 

Required QIAcuity Software Suite version: Version 1.2 or higher.

After a run is completed, the data are stored on the instrument’s memory and are sent to the connected QIAcuity Software Suite for analysis

Besides system stability and performance reliability improvements, this new version of the control software offers advanced user management and audit trail functionalities. Together with the QIAcuity Software Suite 2.0, the QIAcuity systems now support 21 CFR Part 11 regulations for users working under GMP.

Detailed information is available in the Release Note, which can also be downloaded under section “Operating Software”.

Note: Upgrading the QIAcuity Control Software to version 2.0 will require upgrading the QIAcuity Software Suite to version 2.0.

Important: Please follow the instructions provided in the QIAcuity User Manual for software version 2.0. It is strongly recommended to update the QIAcuity Software Suite first before proceeding with the QIAcuity Control Software!

Detailed information is available in the Release Note, which can also be downloaded under section “Operating Software”.

Important: A direct update of the Software Suite from version 1.1.3 to 2.0.20 is not possible. Please follow the instructions in the User Manual on how to update to version 1.2.18 first before updating the Software Suite to version 2.0.20.

Before you start upgrading to version 1.1.3, please make sure that all plates are imported and visible in the plate overview of the QIAcuity Software Suite.

Caution: Not following the instructions may result in a loss of your previous plate data!

Please contact QIAGEN Technical Services if you are unsure and require technical support.

Application Notes
2
Here we compared the performance of qPCR and the nanoplate dPCR techniques. The digital PCR method on the QIAcuity significantly improved precision when measuring copy number states and sensitivity of mutation detection through absolute quantification and reduced standard error. This is advantageous in various applications, including copy number variation analysis, small fold-change and rare mutation detection.
