Infographic: The evolution of PCR in the COVID-19 pandemic
During the COVID-19 pandemic, qPCR became the gold standard technique for molecular testing for SARS-CoV-2. However, the need for increased accuracy has thrown droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) into the spotlight. Discover the similarities and differences between qPCR and ddPCR, including function, sensitivity and throughput.
