Superiority of Droplet Digital PCR Over Real-Time Quantitative PCR for JAK2 V617F Allele Mutational Burden Assessment in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: A Retrospective Study

Abstract excerpt

JAK2 V617F mutational status is an essential diagnostic index in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). Although widely used for detection of JAK2 V617F mutation in peripheral blood (PB), sensitive real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) presents some methodological limitations. Recently, emerging alternative technologies, like digital droplet PCR (ddPCR), have been reported to overcome some of qPCR’s technical...
