DBCO-PEG4-Desthiobiotin is a PEG linker containing a desthiobiotin group and a DBCO functional group. Desthiobiotin is used for affinity-based applications such as pull-down assays or for ligating with streptavidin proteins while DBCO is a click chemistry handle that quickly reacts with azide groups on target molecules. Desthiobiotin is a sulfur-free analogue of biotin which binds streptavidin with slightly less strength than biotin, which provides it with a soft-release characteristic that is useful for in pull-down assays by minimizing co-elution with endogenous biotinylated molecules. The inclusion of a PEG linker in this molecule improves its aqueous solubility.

Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit is an all-in-one, ready-to-use product for the reverse transcription of microRNA from either Total RNA preparations or enriched microRNA preparations. The kit contains the 2x Reaction Mix and the microScript microRNA Enzyme Mix. The kit utilizes Norgen’s microScript Reverse Transcriptase, a mutant version of Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MuLV) Reverse Transcriptase. It has reduced RNase H activity and increased thermal stability.
The workflow of Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit involves a simple, single-tube set-up by the mixing of 2x Reaction Mix, Enzyme Mix and the RNA template. The reaction can then be carried out in a thermocycler. A poly (A) tail is first added to the RNA template, followed by cDNA synthesis using an adapter primer. In addition to the ease-of-use, the single-tube set-up provides superb consistency and sensitivity. The cDNA could be used in a PCR or qPCR amplification using a Universal PCR Reverse Primer and the forward primer that contains the sequence of the microRNA of interest. A single cDNA preparation could be used for PCR amplification of a number of different microRNAs. In addition, the cDNA preparation could be used for PCR or qPCR detection (using gene-specific forward and reverse primers) of mRNA or large RNA if total RNA preparation was the starting template. This could allow for parallel evaluation of expression level of microRNAs and microRNA-targets.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit components should be stored at -20°C. These reagents should remain stable for at least 1 year in their unopened containers.

Available in TaqMan format for analysis.
Giardiasis is a disease of the small bowel caused by the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis (syn.duodenalis or lamblia). Giardia is one of the most common intestinal parasites in the world, and occurs at very high prevalence rates in places with poor water sanitation. Individuals become infected through ingesting or coming into contact with contaminated water, food or soil. It can also be spread through the faecal-oral route due to poor hygiene practices, which makes it common in day-care centers. G. intestinalis lives inside the intestines of infected humans or other animals including cats, dogs, birds, cows, beaver and deer. Symptoms of infection include diarrhea, malaise, excessive gas, bloating, nausea, diminished interest in food, possible vomiting and weight loss.
There are 2 kits available for the detection of Giardia intestinalis:
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All kit components can be stored for 1 year 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.
Propargyl-PEG4-methylamine is a PEG linker that can be react with azide compounds in copper catalyzed azide-alkyne Click Chemistry reactions. The methylamine group is reactive with carboxylic acids, activated NHS esters, carbonyls (ketone, aldehyde) etc. The PEG spacer increases hydrophilicity of the linker in aqueous environment. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
