Disclosed is a system and method conducting real-time PCR. Unlabeled capture molecules of a specific design are immobilized on a solid support, and contacted with amplicons produced in one or more PCR cycles. Detection of amplicons may take place during or between the PCR cycles while the solid support is in fluidic contact with the PCR solution. In an alternate embodiment detection of the amplicons takes place when the solid support is not in fluidic contact with the PCR solution. The method is suitable for the simultaneous detection and quantification of closely homologous target molecules.

A method for calibrating temperature can include cycling temperatures of a set of wells, wherein each well of the set comprises a sample with a spectrally distinguishable species. The method can further include measuring a signal from the spectrally distinguishable species for each well at a temperature during a first temperature cycle, and calibrating the temperatures for measuring the signal from each well during subsequent temperature cycles.

Disclosed is a method for analyzing nucleic acids in a sample comprising the following steps: (i) adding a DNA binding dye containing a benzothiazolium or benzoxazolium group to the sample to be analyzed, (ii) carrying out a polymerase chain reaction, (iii) applying the sample to a gel matrix, (iv) separating the nucleic acid molecules according to their size by applying a voltage and (v) excitation with light of a suitable wavelength for the optical visualization of the nucleic acid/DNA binding dye complexes.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel method to detect and differentiate different strains of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) in a chicken and other bird sample. RNA was obtained from said samples by using a pair of primer (Primer FVVC & RVVC) in a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Two different primer combinations (Primer IF & IVIR) and (Primer IF & RCLA) and real-time polymerase chain reaction conditions were designed and optimized for rapid differentiation of very virulent and vaccine strains of IBDV based on detection of signatory threshold cycle (Ct) and melting temperature (Tm) values.

摘要:
Double-stranded nucleic acid hybridization probes comprise a longer strand perfectly complementary to a preselected target sequence in an assay and a shorter second strand complementary to the longer strand. The strands are labeled with interactive labels such as a fluorophore and a quencher. The probes may be used in real-time amplification assays to distinguish among alleles.
