endo-BCN-PEG8-acid

Name of Product

HIT – Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia Test (20)

Catalog Number

MQHIT 1

Short Info

Lateral Flow Assay designed for the detection of IgG antibodies against PF4/polyanion-complexes in human citrated plasma or Serum

This product is only available in Germany!

Method/Platform

lateral flow, immunoassay

Range/Assay Sensivity

Test Principle

IgG antibodies are resposible for the heparin induced thrombocytopenia.

Immobilized anti-human IgG on the membrane of the test unit binds patients IgG-antibodies which are previously captured by the PF4/polyanion-complex which is detected by intensely colored gold nanoparticles.

The presence of PF4/polyanion-complex becomes visible at a colored test line. The surplus of gold particles continues to migrate through the membrane and is captured at the control line by specific antibodies.

Description

The SMOChem™ Deoxynucleotide (dNTP) Mix is an aqueous solution that contains an equimolar solution of ultrapure dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP, each at a concentration of 10 mM at pH 8.5. The dNTP Mix is designed for many different molecular biology applications that involved in DNA synthesis or labeling, such as PCR, real-time PCR, DNA sequencing, reverse transcription, primer extension, and etc. The dNTP Mix is free of exo-deoxyribonuclease and endo-deoxyribonuclease as well as ribonuclease activity. The dNTP Mix offers the possibility to reduce the number of pipetting steps and the risk of reaction set up errors. 

Features

• Ideal for PCR amplification and cDNA synthesis
• Premixed solution
• Nuclease and ribonuclease free

Applications 

• PCR amplification of DNA fragments
• DNA fill-in reaction
• DNA sequencing
• Reverse transcription
• One-step RT-PCR

Storage

-20°C for 36 months

Description

Salmonella spp. are members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. They are Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, flagellated, rod-shaped organisms. They are approximately 0.7 to 1.5 µm in diameter and 2 to 5 µm in length and responsible for a large number of cases of foodborne illness throughout the world. Salmonella have circular DNA genomes with a mean length of approximately 4530 kb, although this can vary by up 1000 kb. Salmonella classification is extremely complex, however, the genus is divided into two species: S. enterica and S.bongori. S. enterica is then itself divided into 6 biochemically distinct subspecies and the Salmonella genus is further classified into serovars (serotypes) based on the lipopolysaccharide (O), flagella protein (H), and sometimes the capsular (VI) antigens. There are more than 2500 known serovars and within a serovar there may be strains that differ in virulence.

Salmonella are mainly transmitted by the faecal-oral route. They are carried asymptomatically in the intestines or gall bladder of many animals, being continuously or intermittently shed in the faeces. Humans can become infected if they do not wash their hands after contact with infected animals or animal faeces. In such instances the bacteria adhere to and enter the cells of the intestinal epithelium. The toxins produced by the bacteria can damage and kill the cells that line the intestines, which results in intestinal fluid loss. The bacteria can survive for weeks in a dry environment and far longer in water thus they are frequently present in polluted waters. Salmonella can also be carried latently in the mesenteric lymph nodes or tonsils; these bacteria are not shed, but can become reactivated after stress or immunosuppression. In addition, fomites and vectors can spread Salmonella and vertical transmission occurs in birds, with contamination of the vitalize membrane, albumen and possibly the yolk of eggs. Salmonella spp. can also be transmitted in utero in mammals.

There are two different disease conditions that are distinct to salmonellosis; gastroenteritis and enteric typhoid fever. The gastroenteritis is a nonsystemic infection of the intestinal tract and regional lymph nodes that gives rise to headache, muscle aches, diarrhoea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, chills, fever, nausea and dehydration. In contrast, the enteric typhoid fever is a systemic disease in which the microorganism replicates within the cells of the reticuloendothelial system. The symptoms usually appear 6 to 72 hours after ingesting contaminated food although individuals can be infected with the bacteria without having symptoms. Those with and without symptoms shed the bacteria in their stool and it is important that personal hygiene be maintained at all times.
