Promega PowerQuant System

Promega has announced the release of the PowerQuant System, an STR analysis product to determine total human DNA concentration in a sample, quantify male DNA, assess integrity, and discover possible PCR inhibitors. The probe-based system uses four targets and five dyes to ensure that the DNA detected in the quantification steps will result in a usable STR profile. The system can be also used in tandem with the PowerQuant Analysis Tool program.
