Figure Lengend Snippet: Serial dilutions of S. pneumoniae (ATCC 33400) DNA isolated by a standardized method and quantitated spectrophotometrically to 4.4e6 through 4.4e0 genomic equivalents were used for determination of real-time PCR assay detection limits or in vitro sensitivity testing. Cycle number plotted against the log of calculated concentration values resulted in a standard curve with an error of 0.592 and correlation coefficient at unity. Human genomic DNA at 4,500 genomic equivalents and NTC samples did not fluoresce above background signal. The detection limits of the PCR assay demonstrated similar results when the dilution series panel was run in testing of all cross-reaction panel and unknown organisms.
