Digital Droplet PCR assay to monitor tissue-specific cell death using DNA methylation patterns of circulating cell-free DNA

Canonical Identifier
Description
A rapid and simple procedure for cfDNA methylation analysis using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) on bisulfite treated cfDNA to accurately count the number of molecules carrying a specific methylation signature. Specificity and sensitivity of the assay increases by simultaneously interrogating four to six cytosines in the same molecule using two fluorescent probes. cfDNA methylation analysis using ddPCR can find multiple applications in the non-invasive study of human tissue dynamics in health and disease
