Overview

• Detection kits for Streptococcus dysgalactiae
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the utter is mainly caused by infection of various bacteria. Streptococcus dysgalactiae, a Lancefield group C α-hemolytic gram-positive bacteria, is a common pathogen in subclinical and clinical mastitis causing substantial economic losses in dairy herds. Streptococcus dysgalactiae has been isolated from infected mammary glands and teat injuries and is transmitted primarily during milking. However, detection of S. dysgalactiae in other cow tissues such as tonsils, mouth and vagina, and occurrence of S. dysgalactiae mastitis during the non-lactating period in herds, suggests that the organism also behaves as an environmental pathogen.

Overview

• Detection kits for Staphylococcus aureus
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the utter is mainly caused by bacteria, and Staphylococcus aureus is often considered the most common cause of contagious mastitis in dairy herds. S. aureus infection is estimated to be present in up to 90% of dairy farms and is responsible for 35% of the economic loss in the dairy industry (Lee et al., 2005). S. aureus is a facultatively anaerobic, Gram positive bacterium. The majority of S. aureus strains are catalase-positive and coagulasepositive, which forms the basis of traditional identification methodology.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.

All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.

t-Boc-N-Amido-PEG9-propargyl is an alkyne linker that can be used in Click Chemistry reactions with azides to yield a stable triazole linkage; copper is required for catalyzation. Under mild acidic conditions, the Boc group can be removed to form a free amine. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

Description

Aspergillus niger Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is the method of choice for detection and quantification of a wide range of micro organisms. Primerdesign manufactures and supplies high quality quantitative real-time PCR kits for the detection and simultaneous quantification of numerous significant pathogens . A copy number standard curve is provided for quantification and an the internal extraction template (DNA or RNA), controls for the quality of the nucleic acid extraction and eliminates false negative results.

The kit is designed with the broadest possible detection profile to ensure that all clinically relevant strains and subtypes are detected. Target sequences are selected by working with data from key opinion leaders in the field. Multiple sequence alignments and unprecedented real-time PCR expertise in design and validation ensure the best possible kit.

Details of the target and priming specificity are included in the individual handbooks above.

Packaged, optimised and ready to use. Expect Better Data.

Exceptional value for money
Rapid detection of all clinically relevant subtypes
Positive copy number standard curve for quantification
Highly specific detection profile
High priming efficiency
Broad dynamic detection range (>6 logs)
Sensitive to < 100 copies of target Accurate controls to confirm findings

Description

Microcystin are a class of hepatotoxins produced by blue-green algae such as Microcystis aeruginosa.  Microcystin-LR is the most common of the over 50 different congeners. Cyanobacteria can produce microcystin in large quantities during an algae bloom which then pose a major threat.

This kit can be used for Congener-Independent quantitative test of Microcystin in liquid samples such as drinking, ambient and waste water and algal cultures.

Additional Quality Control, Calibration Verification, and Spiking Solution materials can be obtained separately in optional Supplemental Pack for Method 546 (catalog # EL2024-Q).
