Gene Quantification
Everything you ever wanted to know about quantitative PCR.

geNorm
geNorm is a collection of VBA macros for Microsoft Excel to determine the most stable reference (housekeeping) genes from a set of tested candidate reference genes in a given sample panel. From this, a gene expression normalization factor can be calculated for each sample based on the geometric mean of a user-defined number of reference genes.

Normfinder
NormFinder is an algorithm for identifying the optimal normalization gene among a set of candidates. It ranks the set of candidate normalization genes according to their expression stability in a given sample set and given experimental design.
