Proportional detectability of viral DNA/RNA even at low titers

Nucleic acids were extracted from dilution series of DNA (blue) and RNA (orange) viruses and quantified by qPCR. Both viral DNA and viral RNA were detected with high sensitivity (down to 100 viral particles/µL for DNA; down to 800 viral particles/µL for viral RNA).
