Real-time PCR, also known as quantitative PCR (qPCR), is the gold standard for sensitive, specific detection and quantification of nucleic acid targets. Our solutions include powerful assay design algorithms, optimized master mixes, intuitive data analysis software for developing infectious disease panels, pharamacogenomic panels, oncology panels, and more. The analytical validation (AV) of qPCR research assays required for test implementation can, however, be a complex and time‑consuming task.

In this webinar, we explore the need for AV and what it takes to complete AV for qPCR. An experienced AV Project Manager, Victoria Quiett, will share her insight into the AV journey, focusing on the most accepted validation guidelines, as well as challenges and solutions for a successful AV.

Learning objectives:

• Outline the principal validation guidelines
• Discuss the challenges that come with an AV
• Discover the way Thermo Fisher Scientific consults on an AV project
