ROX Solution, 50 μM - FAQs

Is ROX passive reference dye required for fluorescent signal normalization with the PikoReal instrument?

No, neither ROX nor any other passive reference dye is required when using PikoReal. There is no disadvantage if it is present in the reaction mix, but the software will not use their fluorescence data for normalization of the fluorescence signal of the reporter dyes.
