Traci Lyons describes how PrimePCR Assays ended her laboratory’s struggle to find a qPCR assay that could reliably detect transcription of the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene, which they had identified as potentially prometastatic. Using the PrimePCR Assay for COX-2, researchers in her lab were finally able to verify cyclooxygenase-2 knockdown, which is a necessary step toward confirming its role in breast cancer metastasis.
Bio-Rad PrimePCR Assays are expertly designed and validated assays for real-time PCR. Primer assays consist of unlabeled PCR primer pairs for use with dye-based chemistry such as SYBR® Green or EvaGreen®. Probe assays include PCR primers and a dual-labeled fluorescent probe with your choice of fluorophore. You can also choose from our offering of PrimePCR Arrays for a wide range of biological pathways and disease states.
