Application of Real-time Fluorescent Quantitative PCR in Environmental Monitoring
Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (FQ-PCR) which develops in the base of PCR technique as one kind of quantitative techniques about nucleic acid with high sensitivity and strong specificity was used in environmental monitoring to monitor the changes of microorganisms in rivers along with the seasons, estimate the enrichment of fungus and measure microorganisms quickly. With the development of PCR technology, the method will be widely applied in environmental monitoring in the future.
