What is HRM?
High Resolution Melt (HRM) curve analysis is a powerful technique used for the analysis of mutations, polymorphisms and epigenetic differences in double stranded DNA samples. This method relies on analysis of the post amplification denaturation of qPCR targets in combination with third generation DNA intercalating dyes with reduced polymerase inhibition (e.g. SyGreen 2, EvaGreen®). HRM analysis exploits the differences in melt curve shapes and DNA melting temperature to discriminate sequence variations between samples.
Usually, in a melt curve analysis run after a standard dye-based qPCR, fluorescence data is acquired every 0.2-0.5 °C,whereas in HRM analysis data is acquired at a much higher density, every 0.1 °C,
