I am doing taqman qRT PCR of miRNAs in leukemia patients to access specific miRNA expression pattern by using endogenous control. I got confused with fold change calculations using delta delta ct method.
Hi Vikas,
please consider this landmark paper from Schmittgen and Livak. It best describes the delta delta ct method.
Here is the link:

All the best & kind regards,

Hello,
excellent advise in the previous posts. Here is a simple excel datasheet with formulas. Hope it is helpful.
Regards,

Online resources from IRIC in regard to explanation of abbreviations and methods.
Standard curve method datasheet and fold induction.
Thanks Antonio !! Super appreciate it :) .
