Protocole général de qPCR

Step 1: qPCR Reaction Setup
- Before preparing qRT-PCR reactions, thoroughly mix the KAPA SYBR® FAST qPCR Master Mix (2X), KAPA RT Mix (50X), dUTP (10 mM), ROX Reference Dye High/Low, template RNA and primers.
- Keep all kit components and assemble all reactions on ice to avoid premature cDNA synthesis.
- The recommended RNA input is from 1 pg to 100 ng total RNA.
- Prepare a reaction cocktail to reduce pipetting errors. Dispense equal aliquots into reaction tubes. Add RNA to each reaction as a final step. Addition of 2 - 5 μl volumes of RNA will improve assay precision.
- Include a No Template Control (NTC) and No RT Control (NRT) when necessary. The NTC will enable detection of contamination in the reaction components. The NRT control tests for contaminating genomic DNA in the reaction.
- Calculate the required volumes of each component based on the following table:

Step 2: Plate Setup
- Transfer the appropriate volume of reaction mixture to each well of a PCR tube/plate. Reaction volumes may be scaled down from 20 μl to 10 μl if low volume tubes/plates are used.
- Cap or seal the reaction tube/plate and centrifuge briefly.

Step 3: Run the qPCR Reaction
- If applicable, select fast mode on the instrument.
- Program the following cycling protocol:
