Evaluation of droplet digital PCR and next generation sequencing for characterizing DNA reference material for KRAS mutation detection

Abstract excerpt

KRAS gene mutations are predictive markers of non-response to anti-epidermal growth factor receptor. An increasing number of techniques are being developed to detect KRAS mutations. To obtain consistent and comparable results, a traceable reference material (RM) is necessary for validation the routinely used method. However, a lack of reference methods is a main impediment for deriving traceability and...
