Microdroplet digital PCR is a breakthrough nucleic acid quantitative detection technology developed rapidly in recent years, and a large reaction system is subjected to microdroplet treatment before traditional PCR amplification, and the reaction system is divided into thousands of water-in-oil microdroplets, namely thousands of independent PCR reaction systems. In this process, the sample is diluted to a single molecular level using a droplet forming device and distributed equally among the tens of thousands of reaction systems, each droplet containing no or at least one nucleic acid target molecule to be detected. After amplification, each droplet is detected one by droplet digital PCR, and the original concentration of the sample can be calculated through a Poisson probability distribution formula. Compared with the traditional PCR, the micro-drop digital PCR separates the samples in different reaction systems, effectively avoids the mutual hybridization between different primers or products and the competitive inhibition between the same products in the reaction process, can realize the simultaneous amplification of different templates, and can also obtain higher amplification efficiency. Furthermore, due to the reactive nature of microdroplet digital PCR, the amount of sample required is very small, and the probability of single DNA templates being present in a single microdroplet system without detection is very low, a tremendous improvement over the second generation qPCR. The microdroplet digital PCR has various irreplaceable advantages in the detection field, is particularly suitable for detecting and quantifying trace DNA, is flexible to use, can adjust flux and sensitivity according to experimental requirements, and provides more reliable results for nucleic acid detection.
