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.

The Cylindrospermopsin plate kit is a competitive enzyme-labeled immunoassay. The Cylindrospermopsin sample extract and calibrators are pipetted into the test wells followed by the Cylindrospermopsin antibody into the test wells to initiate the reaction. During the 30 minutes incubation period, Cylin-drospermopsin from the sample and Cylindrospermopsin antigen compete for binding to the Cylindrosper-mopsin antibody. The Cylindrospermopsin antibody is captured on the walls of the test well. Following this 30-minute incubation, the contents of the wells are removed and the wells are washed to remove any unbound Cylindrospermopsin and free Cylindrospermopsin antibody. After wash, 1X HRP-conjugated Antibody#2 is added for 30 minutes incubation. The wells are washed afterwards, and a clear substrate is then added to the wells and any bound enzyme conjugate causes the conversion to a blue color. Following a 15-minute incubation, the reaction is stopped and the amount of color in each well is read. The color of the unknown samples is compared to the color of the calibrators and the Cylindrospermopsin concentration of the samples is derived.

Genotype directly from RNA samples. RNA reverse transcription and cDNA PCR genotyping simultaneously in a single, one-step reaction.
ProbeSure OneStep RT-PCR Master Mix combines reverse transcription (RT) and PCR in a single step. This advanced master mix simplifies workflows by eliminating the need for separate reactions for reverse transcription of RNA to cDNA, and PCR amplification from the newly generated cDNA.
ProbeSure OneStep RT-PCR Master Mix is highly efficient and sensitive, enabling detection of low-abundance RNA targets, particularly useful for applications such as gene expression analysis and viral RNA detection. ProbeSure OneStep RT-PCR Master Mix demonstrates robust performance across a wide range of RNA templates and can be employed for both routine and challenging samples.
