Overview

• Able to quantify NGS Library (Illumina) of a wide spectrum of concentrations, including sub-nanomolar concentrations
• DNA is accurately quantified by using a standard curve constructed from the provided DNA Standards
• Specially designed DNA standards for Small RNA-Seq library; also compatible to NGS library of other molecular weights

Norgen’s NGS Library Quantification Kit (for Small RNA-Seq) offers a PCR-based detection procedure to quantify NGS libraries (specifically Small RNA-Seq) of a wide spectrum of concentrations.  The kit consists of a specially designed primer mix compatible with the Illumina system, that is used in conjunction with the provided 2X Real-Time PCR Master Mix to amplify a library of unknown concentration. The unknown library is accurately quantified by using a standard curve constructed from the provided DNA Standard (range from 20 pM to 2 fM) on a Real-Time PCR System. The kit is specially optimized to quantify Small RNA-Seq libraries with DNA standards that have similar size to a Small RNA-Seq library. However, it could also be used with other types of NGS libraries.

Storage Conditions
Upon receipt, store Norgen’s NGS Library Quantification Kit (for Small RNA-Seq) at -20°C or lower. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. If needed, prepare smaller working aliquots and store at -20°C or lower.

* Quantified Library Standards are provided as 20 pM, 2 pM, 200 fM, 20 fM and 2 fM

• Non-specific amplification is prevented by using this Taq DNA polymerase variant as the DNA polymerase is hotstart-formulated. The 10x reaction buffer supplied together with the DNA polymerase has been specifically designed for optimal PCR performance and DNA polymerase activity. This allows the use of this DNA polymerase in a wide range of PCR applications.For research use and further manufacturing. Designed and manufactured under ISO13485. Please contact us for bulk quantities and quotes.

Broad Amplification Range

Different-sized amplicons from 3 ng of a DNA plasmid were amplified. The use of Taq DNA polymerase resulted in clean and high yield of products, as analysed after PCR on a 0.8% agarose gel.

Faster Detection and Higher Sensitivity

A fragment (64 bp) of the human blood-coagulation factor IIa (F2) was amplified from 20 ng, 2 ng, 200 pg and 20 pg of a human genomic DNA extract. The same experiment was performed in parallel using the Taq DNA polymerase mix from another well-established and known supplier. PCR products were subsequently analysed on a 2.5% agarose gel.

Real-time fluorescent DNA amplification in a flexible liquid format. Recommended for users who want to combine RPA with the use of TwistDx’s proprietary fluorescent TwistAmp® exo Probes. In addition to the basic components, a powerful nuclease (Exonuclease III) is provided which will process TwistAmp® exo Probes during the amplification reaction itself and generate a real-time readout. The user need only supply primers, probe, dNTPs and template.See manual for more information. Click to order oligonucleotides.

Perfect for: Real-time fluorescent DNA detection, facilitating use of different RPA reaction volumes, or variation of component ratios.

Overview

• Detection kits for Chlamydia
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Chlamydia trachomatis, the causative agent of Chlamydia, is a Gram negative bacteria. Transmission of the bacteria occurs via contact with infected bodily fluids which then infect mucosal membranes. It can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy and infect the eyes causing conjunctivitis. The genital infection causes urethritis, epididymitis and prostatitis in males and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) in females with an increased risk of contracting HIV. The infection can be treated with a course of antibiotics. Sexually transmitted infections in females are most often asymptomatic, but can be noticeable in chronic pain of the pelvic region, vaginal bleeding and painful urination. Infection of the ovaries, fallopian tubes or uterus causes Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) which can lead to difficulties in conceiving, increased risk of ectopic pregnancy or infertility. Infections in males are more likely to be symptomatic, causing painful urination, discharge from the penis and swollen testicles and may eventually cause infertility if left untreated.

Description

As this is a 2 gene kit, we recommend purchase of 2 of the accompanying RT-qPCR master mix reagent: oasig Lyophilised OneStep RT-qPCR Master Mix 150 reactions.

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.
