Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have pre-designed panels or assays?

Yes - we have Pre-designed Assays that include expert-verified protocols and performance data for commonly tested targets. We are continually adding new assays to our menu.

Do I need to redesign my assay for Countable PCR?

It is simple to transition existing hydrolysis probe-based assays to Countable PCR - your existing probes and primers can be used directly, although we do recommend including a probe additive to reduce background signal. Learn more here.

Does the Countable System automatically calculate absolute molecule counts?

Yes. The software automatically detects and counts target molecules from the 3D light sheet images for every sample and target. In addition, every run produces a QC report in a 21 CFR Part 11–compliant format, supporting GMP-ready traceability.

Which dyes are supported?

It will depend on which Countable System is used for analysis. You can see which dyes are supported on the instrument pages for Countable 4 and Countable 10.
