Abstract excerpt
Digital PCR (dPCR) allows for highly sensitive quantification of low-frequency mutations and facilitates early detection of cancer. However, low-throughput targeting of single hotspots in dPCR hinders variant specification when multiple probes are used. We developed a dPCR method to simultaneously identify major variants related to pancreatic carcinogenesis. Using a two-dimensional plot of droplet fluorescence...
