A microscopic image of a sample emulsified into tens of 1,000s of nano- liter volume droplets. Only droplets that contain a copy of the target molecule will "light up" after PCR.

A microscopic image of circuitry used to produce droplets containing both the sample and PCR reagents. The droplets are suspended in oil.

Illustration Product

The QuantaLife Droplet Digital PCR system consists of a droplet generator and a droplet reader. Amplification is performed using a conventional thermal cycler.

Illustration 3

A representation of Droplet Digital PCR data corresponding to individual droplets. The peak heights for each drop clearly show whether a copy of the target molecule is present.

Illustration 4

A segment of Droplet Digita PCR data for one second of a 60-second run. Droplets stream by the detector at a rate of 20,000 per minute.

Illustration 5

A microscopic image of an emulsion in a cuvette. The droplets are mono sized and thus give off a blue color caused by the Tyndall effect.
