  1. Following LRE analysis (summarized in Figure 7), the FC readings encompassed by the LRE window were converted to F0 (see Figure 3) and the average F0 value converted to the number of target molecules (LRE-N0) using the OCF generated by each respective reaction formulation (see Figure 6 and additional file 3 for more details). The gain setting was adjusted to prevent saturation of the photomultiplier (see Figure 2). Gain: the photomultiplier gain setting, OCF: optical calibration factor (FU/ng dsDNA), QT: QuantiTect, DyNa: DyNAmo; FV: FullVelocity, SG: SYBR Green I, SD: standard deviation, nd: not determined.
