What is qPCR?

qPCR (quantitative PCR), also known as real-time PCR, is a laboratory technique used to amplify and quantify a targeted DNA molecule. It enables both detection and quantification of a specific DNA sequence in a sample. It is commonly used in molecular biology, diagnostics, and research for gene expression analysis, pathogen detection, and genetic testing.
