Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for quantitatively determining the expression of a gene, comprising providing at least two types of samples each containing a cDNA coding for the gene, adding a different adaptor to each of the cDNAs contained in the samples, mixing equal amounts of the samples each containing the adaptor-tagged cDNA, amplifying the resultant cDNAs and calculating an amount ratio between the amplified products.
