Cycle Threshold (Ct) Value
The
Cycle Threshold
(Ct) Value is a crucial metric in
PCR testing
, indicating the number of cycles required for the
fluorescent signal
to cross the threshold, thus detecting the presence of the
target nucleic acid
. A lower
Ct value
suggests a higher amount of
target nucleic acid
in the sample, whereas a higher
Ct value
indicates a lower amount.
