I'm creating a new taqman multiplex assay for three virusses, so one of my probes use CY5 and BHQ. The PCR runs well but after passing the threshold the signal is decreasing to a valor less then the baseline (green curves). You can see the efect in the row data as well. When I'm using a SYBR kit and the probe as well, the two curves are normal (SYBR is red and Cy5 is blue).

The systems lamp is good (less then 1.000h) and the system was recently calibrated, as well for Cy5.

So what is going wrong?

Thank you very much for your help!
