Spinach is the quintessential healthy food, and itâs no surprise that itâs also high in potassium. Bananas get a lot of attention for their potassium content, but ounce for ounce spinach bests them in the potassium department.
New Applications. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is used to simultaneously detect a specific DNA sequence in a sample and determine the actual copy number of this sequence relative to a standard. In real-time PCR, the DNA copy number can be established after each cycle of amplification.
Applications of Real-Time PCR/qPCR Assays. Real-time PCR/qPCR assays have become the tool of choice for the rapid and sensitive determination and quantitation of nucleic acid in various biological samples, with diverse applications such as gene expression analysis, the detection of genetically modified organisms in food, and cancer phenotyping.
