Zusammenfassung: | Methods are provided for quantifying the concentration of a nucleic acid in a nucleic acid sample. The methods include contacting the nucleic acid sample with an amplifying agent, amplifying at least one predetermined locus of the nucleic acid by subjecting the sample to a number of amplification, generating an amplification curve or array, calculating the first, second or n th order derivative of the amplification curve or array, determining a maximum, minimum, or zero value of the derivative, and using the maximum, minimum, or zero value to calculate the initial concentration of the nucleic acid in the nucleic acid sample. |
