Real-time PCR methods

Detects and quantifies specific DNA or RNA by amplification monitored through a fluorescent signal in real time. Results are fast and specific, with no culture step.

In this range, real-time PCR is used to detect pathogens, viruses and toxin-producing bacteria, beer and wine spoilage organisms, allergens and gluten, and to identify animal and plant species in food; qPCR instruments and DNA/RNA extraction kits are included.
