Overview
The QX Continuum™ Droplet Digital™ PCR (ddPCR™) System combines the hallmark performance of ddPCR technology with the user-friendly experience of qPCR. It provides cost-effective absolute quantification of up to four targets from a single sample well, with the sensitivity to detect small changes in gene expression. Featuring Bio-Rad’s simplest ddPCR workflow, the system enables easy integration into existing laboratory routines.
