Abstract:
Quantitative PCR is the "gold standard" technology to quantify nucleic acids and, since the first report describing real-time PCR detection in 1993, its use has been grown exponentially. More recent technological advancements have extended the field of applications ranging from high-resolution melting detection to digital PCR. Nowadays, it is a very accessible technique, but some pitfalls should be overcome in order to achieve robust and reliable analysis.

Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, or Real-time RT-PCR, is an analytical tool used to determine the expression level of target genes. The method involves converting mRNA to complementary DNA with the help of an enzyme known as reverse transcriptase, followed by the PCR amplification of the cDNA. These two processes can be performed simultaneously in a single tube or separately as a two-step reaction.
