Abstract excerpt
Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) using RPPH1 as a reference gene is a standard method for assessment and validation of genomic copy number variations. However, variants in the reference amplicon may cause errors, which was investigated herein. While conducting copy number variation validations for birth defects research studies, 13 of 1634 specimens with multiple loci that appeared to be present as three copies...
