Article Title: Comparing the precision of two digital PCR applications for copy number comparisons in protists
doi: 10.1038/s41598-025-13143-8
Figure Lengend Snippet: Relationship between log-transformed expected gene copy number per µl DNA calculated from Eq. and log-transformed measured gene copy number per µL DNA resulting from digital PCR experiments. Red data points and regression line indicates ddPCR results and blue indicates dPCR results. For both dataset a 3rd degree polynomial model was fitted.
Article Snippet: In this study, we compared the performance of the QX200 droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) platform from Bio-Rad (Temse, Belgium) with the QIAcuity One nanoplate digital PCR (ndPCR) from QIAGEN (Hilden, Germany) using DNA extracted from increasing cell numbers of the model ciliate Paramecium tetraurelia ( P. tetraurelia ) as well as from synthetic oligonucleotides.
