RESUMO
Reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) is a convenient and highly efficient method for the detection of mRNA in tissues or body fluid samples.It has the characteristics of easy operation,high sensitivity and specificity,etc.With a wide application in medicine,biology and other fields,RT-qPCR technique has made some progresses in the research field of forensic pathology.This paper reviews the application value of RT-qPCR in the study of forensic pathology and current situation,as well as the research progress at home and abroad reviews.It also summarizes the notes of samples extraction,RT-qPCR experiments and data processing,which aims to provide reference for the forensic research and its application.
