The Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Absolute Q Digital PCR System combines dPCR absolute quantification with a simplified qPCR workflow, requiring only five minutes of hands-on time. This integrated system performs compartmentalization, thermal cycling, and data acquisition in a single instrument. It can complete a run in less than 90 minutes. The system offers security, auditing, and e-signature features for 21 CFR Part 11-compliance support. It is compatible with Absolute Q Liquid Biopsy Digital PCR assays and the TaqMan assay portfolio. It enables multiplexing using up to four optical channels, allowing more targets to be measured per sample. The system utilizes consumable plates with patented microfluidic array technology for over 95% sample analysis across over 20,000 microchambers for optimal quantification of rare targets.
