Microdroplet-based one-step RT-PCR for ultrahigh throughput single-cell multiplex gene expression analysis and rare cell detection

Microdroplet-based one-step RT-PCR for ultrahigh throughput single-cell multiplex gene expression analysis and rare cell detection

Gene expression evaluation of particular person cells permits characterization of heterogeneous and uncommon cell populations, but widespread implementation of current single-cell gene evaluation strategies has been hindered because of limitations in scale, ease, and price. Right here, we current a novel microdroplet-based, one-step reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain response (RT-PCR) platform and exhibit the detection of three […]

A one-step real-time RT-PCR assay for simultaneous typing of SARS-CoV-2 mutations associated with the E484K and N501Y spike protein amino-acid substitutions

A one-step real-time RT-PCR assay for simultaneous typing of SARS-CoV-2 mutations associated with the E484K and N501Y spike protein amino-acid substitutions

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 mutations ensuing within the S protein amino-acid substitutions N501Y and E484Ok, which have been related to enhanced transmissibility and immune escape, respectively, necessitates speedy actions, for which their speedy identification is essential. For the simultaneous typing of each of those mutations of concern (MOCs), a one-step real-time RT-PCR assay using 4 […]
