Quantitative PCR analysis of the decay and recovery of biothreat agents during samplestorage / William E. Lee, Thompson Tang and Douglas E. Bader.: D68-6/279-2009E-PDF
"Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is widely employed for detection and identification of genetic markers in DNA-containing samples. This report describes methods to use quantitative PCR in conjunction with reaction rate kinetics and thermodynamics to determine recovery of sample material from a commercially available storage medium, FTA® cards. The report shows practitioners of PCR a method to assess analyte recovery, plus the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters associated with sample decay during storage"--Abstract, page i.
