Assessment of Mathematical Approaches for the Estimation and Comparison of Efficiency in qPCR Assays for a Prokaryotic Model by Jose Arturo Molina-Mora, Meriyeins Sibaja-Amador, Luis Rivera-Montero, Daniel Chacón-Arguedas, Caterina Guzmán, Fernando García

“…Thus, the data of 16 genes from <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> strain AG1 were generated using qPCR to assess the effect of DNA concentration and three mathematical methods (a standard curve and two individual-curve-based approaches called exponential and sigmoidal models) on efficiency and DNA quantification. Differences in efficiency were revealed depending on the mathematical method used; the values were 100% in three out of the four standard curves, but estimations of the expected fold change in DNA serial dilutions were not achieved, indicating the possible overestimation of efficiency. …”
