Applied Biosystems™ TaqMan™ Array Human Endogenous Control

Description

• Applied Biosystems™ TaqMan™ Express Endogenous Control Plates use TaqMan™ probe-based chemistry and are designed for use on the suite of Applied Biosystems™ Real-Time PCR Systems – together the gold standard in quantitative gene expression offering the greatest sensitivity, specificity, reproducibility, and the broadest dynamic range
• The first aspect of any experiment looking at relative quantitation of gene expression should be the selection of endogenous control gene(s), to normalize for variations in sample input
• The TaqMan™ Express Human Endogenous Control Plate contains 32 genes, plated in triplicate, that have been shown to be good candidates for such an experiment
• This collection of genes has been selected from literature searches and/or whole genome microarray tests carried out on numerous human tissues
• They have been shown to be expressed constitutively and at moderate abundance across most test samples
• These 96-well plates are pre-configured with the most appropriate TaqMan™ Gene Expression Assays for a specific biological process, pathway, or disease state
• Each plate contains predefined assays and endogenous controls dried-down in the wells, ready for accurate assessment of an entire gene signature in one simple experiment
• TaqMan Assays (TaqMan probe and PCR primer sets) are considered the gold standard in gene expression analysis, enabling you to achieve high specificity and sensitivity and a broad dynamic range
• Extensive collections - choose from over 130 predesigned TaqMan™ Gene Signature Arrays and Plates, or customize your own plate, selecting from any of our 1.3 million inventoried assays across 24 species Affordable - minimum order of only one gene signature plate or six custom plates Convenient - dried TaqMan probe and primer sets supplied in 96-well plates; just add master mix and sample, and then run Quick results - Fast format typically provides results in under an hour
