30 Applied Biosystems Micro Fluidic Card Getting Started Guide
Absolute vs.
Relative
Quantification
When calculating the results of your quantification assays, you can
use either relative or absolute quantification documents to perform
relative quantification analysis. The type of document depends on
whether you will use Applied Biosystems SDS 2.1 software or
custom software to perform RQ analysis.
Relative quantification describes the change in expression of the
target gene in a test sample relative to a calibrator sample. The
calibrator sample can be an untreated control or a sample at time zero
in a time-course study (Livak and Schmittgen, 2001). Relative
quantification provides accurate comparison between the initial level
of template in each sample.
For Micro Fluidic Card assays, relative quantification using the
comparative C
T
method is recommended.
The following documents provide more information about relative
quantification:
