How do we explain the information that we get from standard curve of different dilution of the target and endogenous control gene in Real Time PCR to say something about the quality of primers and the relation between the target gene and the endogenous control

For your real time PCR to be valid your target and endogenous control should amplify at the same efficiency. Many companies provide primers that have be 'validated' so that they guarantee target and endogenous control primers do amplify at the same efficiency.
If you have made your own primers you will need to validate them. You amplify and work out the delta CT values for each. If they are within the same range (can't remember the exact number)then you can use them.
The difference between your samples for the target gene is then the delta delta CT between samples

SUMMARY OF EFFICIENCY(DDCt) METHOD

This method assumes:
minimal correction for the standard gene, or – that standard and target have similar efficiencies.

* The 2 delta-delta Ct variant assumes efficiencies are both 100%

This is an approximation method. But we need to validate that the assumptions are reasonably correct - For this we can do dilution curves to check that the DCts do not change

The only extra information needed for the Pfaffl method is the reference gene efficiency. This involves only a little more work than validating the approximation method

Hope this helps

d'uh?? try this link and scroll to the bottom two thirds:

Standard curves show primer efficiency between 0-100%. Should be around 98% at least. 100% efficiency would mean you get a doubling of product at each replication cycle

Legends and artifacts relationship back 1000's of years have ignited guy's mind's eye for some years to centuries with theories of historic astronauts and alien beings from different planets. Sightings of "UFOs" or "unidentified flying gadgets" of various sizes, shapes and different features have been recorded worldwide huge for hundreds of years, in all probability 1000's. In oftentimes happening television shows, it is declared that "sky human beings" are purportedly recorded as having introduced stepped forward way of life to the hominids who've lived in the worldwide. in accordance to those legends, supposedly, this "first touch" had got here approximately in the previous, following cataclysm. some thoughts relate this civilizing journey to have got here approximately numerous circumstances throughout the time of Earth's history. Geological, paleontological, anthropological and archaeological records show that there have certainly been many cataclysms in this earth, numerous on a worldwide point, with climate substitute and mass extinction. The thoughts allegedly recount that when considered one of those disaster, many surviving people have been decreased to the Stone Age yet that greater stepped forward humanoids descended from spacecraft and reestablished civilization. Are those claims real? have been those "sky human beings" aliens? Have there been "aliens" between us all alongside? Or is all of it only an phantasm?
