RealTime PCR for Quantitating mRNA and DNA

Companies producing probes that can be used for Quantitative Realtime PCR:

Additional Primer Programs on the WEB for Realtime PCR primer design

(This information included for informational purposes only, the Applied Biosystems program (Primer Express) which we have is probably your best bet for primer design for the Appled Biosystems 7900HT)
