Abstract: A method of multi-gene absolute quantification for PCR array is provided, wherein a nucleic acid sample to be tested includes at least one kind of nucleic acid target. Primers for amplifying a plurality of standard DNA or the nucleic acid target to be tested are respectively disposed in a plurality of reaction wells of a test carrier. Afterwards, the plurality of standard DNA with known copy number and the nucleic acid sample are mixed and added into the reaction wells, and qPCR is performed on the standard DNA and the nucleic acid sample. A sequence-specific combination of a forward primer and a reverse primer is designed for each standard DNA, and the same DNA template sequence is presented between regions corresponding to the forward primer and the reverse primer. The primers for amplifying standard DNA and the nucleic acid target to be tested have similar amplification efficiencies.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of detecting target nucleic acids. In particular, methods for avoiding loss of the fluorescent label form an amplicon that is generated using a Scorpion primer and a polymerase with 5? exonuclease activity. The methods use a Scorpion primer which comprises a fluorophore, a quencher, and in 5? to 3? order, a probe region, a linker region and a primer region, wherein the quencher is located at or near the 5? end, and, wherein the primer is complementary to the target nucleic acid and the probe region hybridizes to a complementary sequence in an extension product of the primer. The methods provide for detection of target nucleic acids in simplex or multiplex formats.
