Bio-Rad Droplet Digital PCR-Based Assays

Bio-Rad Laboratories has launched droplet digital PCR Genome Edit Detection assays, which can characterize edits generated by CRISPR-Cas9 or other genome editing tools. The assays use ddPCR technology which increases the signal-to-noise ratio, allowing users to quantify extremely rare edits, even those with frequencies of 0.5 percent and from as little as 5 nanograms of genomic DNA. Users can expect to obtain results within one day.
