UNIVERSAL REFERENCE DYE FOR QUANTITATIVE AMPLIFICATION

摘要

The present invention provides for a reaction mixture for signal normalization in a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of a target nucleic acid wherein the mixture is compatible for use in both (a) a real-time PCR amplification system employing high passive reference dye concentration for the normalization and (b) a real-time peR30 amplification system employing low passive reference dye concentration for the normalization, wherein the mixture comprises a plurality of passive reference dyes that produces fluorescent signals independent of the amplification reactions.
