Explore the innovative world of Digital Droplet PCR (ddPCR) in this 34-minute webinar presented by Dr. Steven Wang, an engineering manager for microfluidics and consumables at Bio-Rad Laboratories. Delve into the microfluidic water-oil emulsion technology that enables absolute DNA quantification by fractionating samples into nanoliter droplets. Compare ddPCR to traditional qPCR, understanding its advantages in precision, accuracy, sensitivity, and signal-to-noise ratio. Discover how ddPCR accommodates various probe chemistries and multiplexing techniques while enhancing applications such as non-invasive prenatal testing, pathogen detection, food safety analysis, and liquid biopsy. Learn from Dr. Wang's extensive background in chemical engineering and microfluidics as he shares insights into this cutting-edge technology. Gain valuable knowledge about the technology and applications of droplet microfluidics in PCR, with the opportunity to earn PACE credits upon completion.
