This product is only available within the EU!
Method/Platform
lateral flow
Range/Assay Sensivity

Test Principle
IL-6 binds to a first anti IL-6 antibody conjugated to gold particles. The IL-6 loaded gold particles diffuse through the membrane and overflow the test line.
A second monoclonal antibody, specific for IL-6 is coated on the membrane. The gold particles are bound specifically and become visible as a coloured line. Colour intensity is directly proportional to the concentration of IL-6 in the sample. The conjugated specific antibodies printed as a second line on the membrane captures the rest of gold conjugate.

Product Info
The NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit (illumina and MGI Platforms) was developed for construction of high quality libraries for next generation sequencing. The kit uses intact genomic DNA (EDTA-free DNA or DNA resuspended in TE buffer) as input DNA without an additional DNA fragmentation step. Our technology provides a fast and simple workflow. DNA libraries can be generated around 2 hours with only 10 min hands-on time. Library multiplexing is possible.
NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit Workflow
The incorporation of DNA fragmentation in the kit makes it possible to directly use intact genomic DNA as input DNA without the need of mechanical DNA shearing or enzymatic DNA fragmentation. The NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit does not generate sequencing bias as compared to library using mechanical sheared DNA as input. Sequence coverage is also consistent between enzymatic shearing and mechanical shearing. The library size is inversely correlated with the incubation time of step 1 at 20°C.
Three index types are available for the kit of the illumina platform:
Non-index (Cat.# 30026): Libraries do not have index.
Index (Cat.# 30028): Each of the index primers contains a unique index sequence of 6 bases. Library multiplexing for 48 samples is possible. Index information can be downloaded here.
Unique dual index (Cat.# 30030): Library multiplexing for 96 samples is possible. With the unique features of our 4-Base Difference Index System, the index sequence is 8-base long and each index has 4 bases different from others. Our unique dual index primers effectively identify sequencing errors such as index hopping, mis-assignment of reads, and de-multiplexing errors etc. The unique dual index primers set consists of 96 pre-mixed unique pairs of index primers. Index information can be downloaded here.
Indexes are available for the MGI platform kits (Cat.# 34028).
Kit features:
1.5-hour protocol from intact genomic DNA to NGS library
Intact genomic DNA as input, DNA fragmentation is not needed.
Works with both EDTA-free DNA and DNA resuspended in TE buffer
Library conversion efficiency: 100 ng, 300 ng and 500 ng of intact genomic DNA were used as input.
The library size is inversely correlated with the incubation time of step 1 at 20°C.
NGS data comparison: enzymatic shearing versus mechanical shearing
Enzymatic shearing • DNA shearing and library prep: BioDynami NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit Mechanical shearing • DNA shearing: Covaris sonication • Library prep: BioDynami NGS DNA Library Prep Kit.

Overview
Quantified standard to be used as a positive control or PCR quantification standard
Vigorously quantified using multiple methods
Listeria monocytogenes has emerged as a significant foodborne pathogen that poses a serious public health problem. As the causative agent of Listeriosis, L. monocytogenes has the highest rate of fatality among all foodborne pathogens. L. monocytogenes is a facultatively intracellular, Gram-positive bacterium. Due to its ability to survive high and low temperatures as well as low pH, it could resist various food processing technologies, as well as grow at food storage temperatures. L. monocytogenes is known to be associated with raw meat, unpasteurized milk and dairy products, vegetables, and seafood. As little as 1000 organisms may cause the disease with pregnant, new-born, and immunocompromised individuals being the most susceptible.
Norgen’s Listeria monocytogenes Quantified Bacterial DNA Standard is prepared from cultured bacteria using Norgen’s sample preparation technology. The purified DNA is quantified vigorously using multiple methods including spectrophotometry, gel densitometry and real-time PCR. It is intended to be used as a positive control or PCR quantification standard for Listeria monocytogenes.
Upon receipt, store Norgen’s Listeria monocytogenes Quantified Bacterial DNA Standard at -20oC or lower. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycle. If needed, prepare smaller working aliquots and store at -20oC or lower.
