Pietrzykowski: Uses #digitalPCR, real-time and end-point all in conjunction. Levels of miRNA he looks at are 30 to 50% up- or down-regulated

12:23pm March 27th 2014 via Hootsuite

Pietrzykowski: Now with #digitalPCR able to get much better precision (on the order of <10%). Is working on mature forms of miRNA.

12:20pm March 27th 2014 via Hootsuite

Pietrzykowski: micro RNA changes in expression are subtle, with pronounced effect on the genes they regulate. 1 Ct (2-fold change) qPCR
