Cerillo’s Alto Plate Reader is a third party module that can be placed next to or inside the OT-2 or Opentrons Flex for post experimental analysis. The worktable adapter will allow you to utilize the OT-2 or Opentrons Flex to prepare the samples directly into the plate reader positions on the worktable.
This powerful optical system provides flexible calibration modes, accommodating a wide array of workflows including ELISA and microbial growth curves with diverse starting points. This plate reader is compatible with Cerillo’s Canopy wireless device that allows real time visualization, control, and analytics. This product is compatible with reading 450nm or 600nm wavelengths.

The FastRunner DNA Ladder is prepared to ensure quality and batch-to-batch consistency. This Ladder contains eight discrete fragments ranging from 50 bp to 2000 bp with a higher intensity reference band at 500 bp. This Ladder is ideal for quick sizing of PCR products and restriction digests.
Contents 1mL of premixed DNA ladder (0.5µg/10µL) in loading buffer (10mM EDTA, 10% glycerol, 0.015% bromophenol blue, and 0.17% SDS).
Ladder Properties: • Eight discrete bands, ranging from 50 bp to 2000 bp • Higher intensity band at 500 bp for easy reference

Recommended Use: Mix thoroughly. For best results, load 10µL of DNA ladder per well. For precise mass determination with a densitometer, stain gel after electrophoresis using 0.5µg/mL ethidium bromide for 30-40 minutes. The table above shows the size and mass for each band based on 10µL ladder per well.
Storage: Stable at room temperature. For longer term storage, -20°C is recommended.
This ladder was standardized using 10µL of DNA per lane on a 0.8 cm thick, 13 x 15 cm, 1.0% agarose gel run in TAE buffer.
The PCR Decontamination Kit can remove contaminating DNA in PCR master mixes, without reduction of PCR sensitivity.
The double-strand specific property of the dsDNase allows decontamination with primers and probe present.
Efficient for end-point PCR, probe-based qPCR, and some SYBR based qPCR mixes.
Contaminating bacterial DNA can be reduced to levels below the detection limit.
Fast and easy protocol.
Flat NTCs (No Template Controls).
Decontamination of master mixes without reduction of sensitivity has always been a challenge. Especially when minor amounts of DNA are targeted, contaminating DNA is a major problem. Any loss of sensitivity in the qPCR assay caused by the decontamination protocol is unacceptable.
In Figure 1, it is demonstrated that the PCR decontamination kit can remove contaminating DNA from a qPCR mix to non-detectable levels (flat NTC), without affecting the sensitivity of the qPCR.
