Bio-Rad QX200Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc. launched the QX200 Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) system, the second generation of the company's ddPCR technology. The system is the only digital PCR system that works with EvaGreen and TaqMan hydrolysis probes (reagents that are used with the instrument) to provide users more flexibility in the design of their digital PCR experiments. The new system can be used with the company's recently launched 75 Droplet Digital PCR-validated assays (tests) for cancer mutation detection and genomic variations (gene copy number) to make running an experiment easier. Digital PCR provides researchers a tool for the detection of rare mutations (including distinguishing rare sequences in tumors), precise measurement of copy number variation and absolute quantification of gene expression.
