The oasig freeze drying process stabilises all of the active components allowing these reagents to be shipped and stored at room temperature. This hugely simplifies the logistics of purchasing, shipping and using the technology. Whether you are in a sophisticated laboratory in Texas or a mobile field hospital in Timbuktu we can supply complete qPCR kit and reagent packages to your door quickly and cheaply via standard shipping methods without the need for dry ice or a cold chain of any sort.
The performance of the reagents is second to none. We are confident that you will find excellent data quality and even see an improvement in data quality versus many traditional frozen master mixes.
Primerdesign real-time PCR reagents are manufactured to the highest standards within our ISO9001:2008 and ISO13485:2012 certified quality management laboratory environment.
Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the utter is mainly caused by infection of various bacteria. Streptococcus dysgalactiae, a Lancefield group C α-hemolytic gram-positive bacteria, is a common pathogen in subclinical and clinical mastitis causing substantial economic losses in dairy herds. Streptococcus dysgalactiae has been isolated from infected mammary glands and teat injuries and is transmitted primarily during milking. However, detection of S. dysgalactiae in other cow tissues such as tonsils, mouth and vagina, and occurrence of S. dysgalactiae mastitis during the non-lactating period in herds, suggests that the organism also behaves as an environmental pathogen.
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.
CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Norovirus is a single-stranded, non-enveloped RNA virus belonging to the Caliciviridae family. Norovirus is considered the major causative agent of non-bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. The main channel of transmittance is via contaminated food or water, as well as human-to-human contact. Most Noroviruses infecting humans belong to genogroup I and II (particularly genotype 4). Norovirus is very stable in the environment and is resistant to some surface disinfectants such as alcohols and detergents. Moreover, it is very difficult to culture Norovirus in vitro, making its identification by standard microbiological assays challenging.
