Correlation of dCq value (weighted average, wa) and formaldehyde concentration used for cell damaging. Various formaldehyde concentrations have been used to introduce different densities of blocking sites for DNA amplification. The weighted average was calculated from dCq value intervals of Control-DNA. The weighted average dCq value decreased exponentially by increasing the formaldehyde concentration indicating damaging of single cell DNA (see blue diamonds). The red diamond gives the weighted average dCq value of non-treated cells used as a control.
