  1. Dilution in gDNA was conducted to investigate competitive binding for the 4-group reference genes for ER+ IBC.
  2. *: theoretical amplification efficiencies. The actual efficiency cannot be determined since the standard curves were flawed, as observed by the low coefficient of correlation (R2)
