What is the RT² Profiler PCR Array?
The RT² Profiler PCR Array is a 96-/384-well plate or 100-well disc that contains gene-specific Primer Assays for a thoroughly researched set of relevant, pathway- or disease-focused genes. It simultaneously profiles the expression of 84 pathway-specific genes, and five housekeeping genes. Each RT² Profiler PCR Array also includes a Genomic DNA Control (GDC) assay, triplicate Reverse Transcription Controls (RTC), and triplicate Positive PCR Controls (PPC).

RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays
RT² Profiler PCR Arrays enable quick, reliable gene expression analysis of 170+ pathways, allowing researchers to spend less time at the bench and more time interpreting results. The arrays are pathway-focused panels of laboratory-verified qPCR assays, with integrated, patented controls to ensure a successful experiment every time. PhD-trained application specialists are available to provide technical support for the arrays, and each array can also be modified to suit unique experimental needs. For biomarker discoveries, we offer Pathway Plus PCR arrays and all arrays listed below for the Fluidigm BioMark Real-Time PCR System.
Housekeeping Genes
RT2 Profiler Array Housekeeping Genes PCR Arrays are used to screen for potential normalization genes for use in real-time PCR analysis. Housekeeping genes encode proteins that are usually essential for the maintenance of cellular function and often remains constant under most experimental conditions. With this array, you can easily profile the expression of twelve (12) commonly used housekeeping genes in eight (8) samples using SYBR-green based qPCR.
