Quantitative PCR or Real Time PCR allows detection of the accumulation of PCR products during the amplification process in real time. This enables quantification of the number of templates present in the original sample before the PCR reaction has been started.

In contrast to intercalation dyes (such as SYBR Green) hybridisation probes for quantitative / Real Time PCR are a preferable option with respect to  

• Specificity
• Sensitivity
• Efficiency

Moreover, qPCR probes allow simultaneous detection of multiple targets/genes in one single reaction. Multiplexing of qPCR analysis

• Saves time, effort and money
• Reduces amount of sample needed
• Eliminates pipetting deviations
• Allows internal controls in one reaction
• Enables convenient screening

Our portfolio of hybridisation probes comprise

• Dual Labeled Probes
• LightCycler^® Probes or FRET Probes
• Molecular Beacons
