Automated analysis of high-throughput qPCR data
Description
Analysis of Ct values from high throughput quantitative
real-time PCR (qPCR) assays across multiple conditions or
replicates. The input data can be from spatially-defined
formats such ABI TaqMan Low Density Arrays or OpenArray;
LightCycler from Roche Applied Science; the CFX plates from
Bio-Rad Laboratories; conventional 96- or 384-well plates; or
microfluidic devices such as the Dynamic Arrays from Fluidigm
Corporation. HTqPCR handles data loading, quality assessment,
normalization, visualization and parametric or non-parametric
testing for statistical significance in Ct values between
features (e.g. genes, microRNAs).
