Table 2.
Serial dilution of the cDNA template and corresponding identification number.
| Identification Number | Dilution | Starting Quantity per Reaction (Copies cDNA) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Undiluted | 105 1 |
| 2 | 1:10 | 104 |
| 3 | 1:100 | 103 |
| 4 | 1:1000 | 102 |
| 5 | 1:10,000 | 101 |
| 6 | 1:100,000 | 100 |
1 One µL of each sample (1–6) was used in the qPCR. Assuming a complete transcription into cDNA, this corresponds to a final concentration of 105 copies/µL cDNA for the undiluted sample.
