METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING AN AMPLIFICATION QUALITY METRIC

摘要

According to one exemplary embodiment, a method for providing a amplification quality metric to a user is provided. The method includes receiving amplification data from an amplification of a sample to generate an amplification curve. The amplification curve includes an exponential region and a transition region. The method further includes determining a first value of the transition region and determining a second value of the transition region. The first value is the beginning of the transition region and the second value is the end of the transition region. Next, the amplification quality metric is calculated based on at least the first value and the second value. Then, the amplification quality metric is displayed to the user.
