Introduction to Digital PCR

Digital PCR (dPCR) is a molecular biology technique going through a renaissance. With the arrival of new instrumentation dPCR can now be performed as a routine molecular biology assay. This exciting new technique provides quantitative and detection capabilities that by far surpass other methods currently used. This chapter is an overview of some of the applications currently being performed using dPCR as well as the fundamental concepts and techniques this technology is based on.
