8 5 2015 BMP2 2 reps qPCR

In an effort to improve replicates performance I ran several target genes again. This time I ran two reps of each target on the sample plate and used the multichannel pipetter to pipette equal volumes of master mix. This post covers the runs of BMP2. I ran NTCs on a separate plate using the same reaction volume and 9 ul of PCR water.

The amplification curves look good. There's minor amplification in the NTCs but its a primer dimer. Melt curve still isn't great but still pretty strong. 

The reps I added to the comparison spreadsheet and we're working on determining their value. 

You can see the raw sample data here and NTC data here.
