Recently, a prospective, multicenter, blinded clinical trial demonstrated for the first time that the prognostic utility of GUCY2C quantitative reverse transcriptase (qRT)-PCR to detect occult ...

Multiplex quantitative PCR, reverse transcription PCR, and reverse transcription isothermal amplification are widely regarded as optimal confirmatory tests to detect viral RNA. With a market ...

Codexis Launches Codex® HiTemp Reverse Transcriptase to Address Key Challenges in One-Step Assays for RNA Detection in PCR Testing, including COVID-19 Testing. News-Medical.

Credit: Technology Networks. Reverse transcription (RT) -PCR and RT-qPCR are two commonly used PCR variants enabling gene transcription analysis and quantification of viral RNA, both in clinical and ...

Although “RT-PCR” is on everyone’s lips, the term can be confusing. The “RT” can stand for “real time” or “reverse transcription.” Also, RT-PCR tests may or may not incorporate a ...

But experts say the PCR test isn’t the best one for every situation. PCR – or reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction – tests can detect small amounts of the coronavirus’ genetic ...

Studies will need to validate, in a new patient cohort, the prognostic utility of GUCY2C qRT-PCR for categorical identification (yes/no) of occult metastases as a marker of disease recurrence.
