  • Primers have been designed to avoid 3' SNPs and secondary structure (self-annealing)
  • No secondary structure in the amplicon for any assay (positive delta G)
  • Specificity has been checked by melt peak analysis and the presence of only a single band on a gel
  • Standard curves down to 10 copies per reaction have been run for each assay and all show excellent linearity (R2 >0.99) Efficiency (>95%) and sensitivity (repeat of 10 copies consistently detected)
  • Primers have been tested at an annealing temperature of 57oC. Higher annealing temperatures (up to 60oC) are possible, but require individual validation.
