Dear all,

I performed several qPCR, which also worked fine, however, now during the evaluation I encountered an issue. My problem is that due to the restriction when choosing primers, I ended up with different lengthy amplicons, i.e. the endogenous control (S16) is 70nt, the target 1 is 131nt and the target 2 is 116nt long.

Regarding the fact that SyberGreen should "randomly" intercalate into my products, I assume that more SyberGreen intercalates in one product amplicon type 1 or 2 than in the endogenous control.Is it now a good idea to adjust the relative amount of expressed target (1 or 2) with a factor, e.g. (expression of target 1) * (70/131) and (expression of target 2) * (70/116)?

Further I have read that SyberGreen seems to prefer some sequences to intercalate, can/should this also be taken into account or simply ignored at all?

Kind regards.
