Hi Shifu, thank you for your answer. Could I ask what is the better way to analyze methylation? We only have less than 20 markers of interest.

Wang Fang

In my own opinion if you want to detect the 20 marks together,you can try the numblegen own design probe to catch the signal, in other way the qPCR is a good way~
