FIG. 3.
Resolution of real-time fluorogenic RT-PCR for the quantification of bacteriophage MS2 genomic RNA. MS2 RNA was serially diluted twofold from 400 pg/assay to 1.5635 pg/assay. Each set of curves (nine samples and one negative control) is comprised of four superimposed curves. The CT values for this experiment are given in Table 4. The probe and primer set used in this experiment are for assay 1, as shown in Table 1. ΔRn, change in fluorescence.
