生物技术 评估核酸靶序列量化方法性能的要求 qPCR和dPCR
This document provides generic requirements for evaluating the performance and ensuring the quality
of methods used for the quantification of specific nucleic acid sequences (targets).
This document is applicable to the quantification of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic
acid) target sequences using either digital (dPCR) or quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) amplification
technologies. It applies to target sequences present in nucleic acid molecules including doublestranded
DNA (dsDNA) such as genomic DNA (gDNA) and plasmid DNA, single stranded DNA (ssDNA),
complementary DNA (cDNA), and single stranded RNA (ssRNA) including ribosomal RNA (rRNA),
messenger RNA (mRNA), and long and short non-coding RNA [microRNAs (miRNAs) and short
interfering RNAs (siRNAs)], as well as double-stranded RNA (dsRNA).
This document applies to nucleic acids derived from biological sources such as viruses, prokaryotic
and eukaryotic cells, cell-free biological fluids (e.g. plasma or cell media) or in vitro sources [e.g.
oligonucleotides, synthetic gene constructs and in vitro transcribed (IVT) RNA].
This document is not applicable to quantification of very short DNA oligonucleotides (<50 bases).Cross References:ISO/IEC Guide 99ISO/IEC Guide 98-3:2008ISO 20184-1ISO 20186-3ISO 20184-2ISO 16269-4ISO 17511ISO 24276ISO 20186-1ISO/IEC 17025ISO 21571ISO 5725-1ISO 20186-2ISO 13495:2013ISO 25720:2009ISO 15193:2009ISO 16577:2016All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
