QIAGEN Cell & Gene Tech Expo April 2026: Cell Therapy

Ensuring consistent product quality and regulatory compliance is one of the biggest challenges in biotherapeutics development. Accurate and reproducible measurement of critical attributes (CQAs) is essential for product safety, efficacy and robust process control.

The QIAcuity® Digital PCR (dPCR) system meets these needs by enabling absolute quantification without standard curves, thereby improving accuracy, sensitivity, and confidence in the data. Unlike traditional qPCR, dPCR’s partition-based workflow leverages Poisson statistics to deliver higher sensitivity, inhibitor tolerance, and reproducibility, crucial for applications such as viral vector quantification, VCN assessment, residual DNA analysis, and mycoplasma detection.

The QIAcuity system’s integrated, all-in-one design streamlines operations from development to GMP manufacturing with high throughput, multiplexing capacity and rapid turnaround. Combined with a software supporting 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, audit trails and comprehensive IQ/OQ support, QIAcuity provides a seamless path from development to regulated environments. By empowering biopharma developers to accurately assess safety, purity and potency, QIAcuity dPCR accelerates the delivery of reliable, compliant biologics and cell and gene therapies.
