  1. The analysis of real-time PCR data: the threshold cycle (CT) value for each sample was calculated by determining the point at which the fluorescence exceeded the threshold limit, and the cut off was 35.1 determined by the ROC curve. The results of negative, positive and quality controls which were included in each experiment were within the normal range.
