A method for obtaining a cRNA for use in generating calibration data, e.g., a standard curve, for absolute quantitation of RNA by RT-PCR is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a synthetic oligonucleotide comprising an amplicon, a promoter sequence located 3' relative to the amplicon; synthesizing complementary RNA (cRNA) by in vitro transcription of the synthetic oligonucleotide; quantitatively assaying the cRNA by an independent method; and generating calibration data using a known quantity of the cRNA. |
