Overview

• Detection kits for Listeria monocytogenes
• CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis.

Listeria monocytogenes have emerged as significant foodborne pathogens that pose a serious public health problem. As the causative agent of Listeriosis, L. monocytogenes has the highest rate of fatality rate among all foodborne pathogens. L. monocytogenes is a facultatively intracellular, Gram-positive bacterium that could survive high and low temperatures, low pH. It is a rare causative agent of mastitis in cow. However, due to its ability to resist various food processing technologies as well as to grow at low temperature, L. monocytogenes is know to be associated with both raw and pasteurized milk, as well as dairy products such as cheese. As little as 1000 organisms may cause the disease with pregnant, new-born, and immunocompromised individuals the most susceptible.

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.

Introduction

This product provides fast and easy methods for purification of total DNA for reliable PCR and Southern blotting. Total DNA(e.g., genomic, viral, mitochondrial) can be purified from small volume of blood, tissue and dry blood spots.

Specifications

Principle

This product is based on silica Column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mmTris, pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 20 minutes (after digestion)
• High purity – purified DNA can be directly used in various downstream applications
• High recovery – DNA can be recovered at the level of PG
• Good repeatability – silica technology can obtain ideal results every time

Storage and Stability

Carrier RNA and Proteinase K should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect its performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under theseconditions.

Experiment Data

This product provides fast and easy methods for purification of total DNA for reliable PCR and Southern blotting. Total DNA(e.g., genomic, viral, mitochondrial) can be purified from small volume of blood, tissue and dry blood spots.

Introduction

This product is suitable for rapid extraction of DNA from tissue, cells, blood, saliva, swabs, blood spots, semen and other clinical samples. DNA can be used directly for PCR, quantitative PCR, Southern Blot, test of virus DNA and so on.

Specifications

Principle

This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and Protease. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by Elution Buffer.

Advantages

• High binding force – suitable for handling DNA rich samples, such as whole blood, buffy coat, concentrated blood, etc.
• High purity – carboxyl magnetic beads with weak surface adsorption, getting higher purity
• General – can be used for various clinical samples
