Rapid Detection of Mutations Using ddPCR
Precise and rapid mutation detection is critical to cancer research.
However, multiplexing cancer mutation detection is challenging due to the need to discriminate multiple sets of highly similar sequences in a single well.
This application note showcases the QX600 Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) workflow which can easily detect mutations commonly associated with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in a single-well, 6-plex reaction.
