Sample Experiment
Primers and probes for the example RQ experiment are obtained from the TaqMan Gene Expression Assays product line
and are provided as a 20✕ Gene Expression Assay Mix. The PCR master mix is prepared as follows:
Samples and endogenous controls are arranged on three plates as shown below. 50 µL of PCR master mix containing
cDNA are added to each well.
The reactions are kept on ice until the plates are loaded on the 7300/7500/7500 Fast system.
