BioMicroCenter:Caliper LabChip GX: Difference between revisions

RNA metrics such as peak heights, peak areas, and concentration are used to determine an RQS (RNA Quality Score) number for each sample.  The Caliper RQS is a calculated score that rates the quality of RNA samples. The RQS has been validated to correlate well with Agilent’s RIN (RNA Integrity Number) and follows the same 0-10 scale rating. Results comparing RIN to RQS for the same samples run on both LabChip GX and Agilent’s Bioanalyzer 2100 typically show <10% deviation. The RQS is consistent over Caliper’s standard sensitivity RNA assay concentration range (25 to 250 ng/μL) with CV’s <20%.  For more information
