In the workshop, Dr Rose will present data demonstrating how PrimeTime Predesigned qPCR Assays with ZEN double-quenched probes simplify a 4-plex assay system, saving time and money, and discuss factors that influence the success of using these assays in a multiplex format. The 15 minute technology spotlight will introduce IDT’s new multi-application molecular biology tool, gBlocks™ Gene Fragments. These double-stranded, sequence-verified DNA fragments up to 500 base pairs in length can be used as copy number standards for qPCR, without the need for cloning the endogenous amplicon. Multiple amplicons can be incorporated into a single gBlocks fragment, avoiding the need for linearizing plasmid controls and ensuring that concentrations of the standard dilutions are the same for the individual control assays in the multiplex reaction.
