Digital PCR: A Revolutionary Assay for Viral Disease Diagnosis

Digital PCR is a new-age PCR technology with increased sensitivity and reduced inter-lab variations. Its partitioning principle helps to reduce PCR inhibitors and the detection of rare gene sequences. Absolute quantification without the requirement of a standard curve is a feature that makes it advantageous over other conventional PCR amplification methods.  This assay has better reproducibility and efficacy making this technology suitable for application in viral disease diagnosis.
