Development of digital PCR molecular tests for clinical practice: principles, (...),recommandations

In this paper (collectively written by the national “digital PCR” taskforce from the French Clinical Biology Society), we review the principles of this emerging technology. We propose a number of practical recommendations for the implementation of dPCR-based tests in clinical laboratories, with an eye on quality requirements.
