Abstract
There is increasing awareness that quantitative analysis of changes in molecular targets plays a key role in addressing scientific questions in molecular toxicology, molecular epidemiology, and human risk assessment. One of the emerging technologies that is being used to analyze these molecular targets is realβtime and quantitative (RTAQ) polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The aim of this review is to provide the reader with an overview of this technology and to highlight specific applications of this technology to some key areas of molecular toxicology.

## Abstract A realβtime polymerase chain reaction assay was initially developed in China to detect mumps genome. The primers and TaqManβMGB probe were selected from regions of the hemagglutinin gene of mumps virus. The primers and probe for the realβtime PCR were evaluated by both laboratories in C
