Overview

• Detection kits for Streptococcus agalactiae
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the udder is mainly caused by infection of various bacteria. One of such mastitis bacteria, Streptococcus agalactiae, is highly infectious and causes mainly subclinical infections, which are not identified by the herdsman. As a result, S. agalactiae can spread widely within a herd, causing immediate loss due to reduced milk. S. agalactiae is a gram-positive bacteria belonging to the Group B streptococci. Traditional cultural identification of S. agalactiae is based on S. agalactiae being beta-hemolytic as well as presence of group B Lancefield antigen and by its ability to hydrolyze sodium hippurate.

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.

Introduction

Free-circulating nucleic acids, such as tumor-specific extracellular DNA fragments and mRNAs in the blood or fetal nucleic acids in maternal blood, are present in serum or plasma usually as short fragments, <1000bp (DNA). HiPure Circulating DNA Midi Kit enables efficient purification of these circulating nucleic acids from human plasma, serum, or urine. The extracted products can be used for clinical in vitro detection.

Principle

This product is based on silica Column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer.

Advantages

• High yield – most optimal process, free DNA (>50bp) can be obtained to the maximum extent
• High concentration – low elution volume, ensuring high nucleic acid concentration
• High purity – low alcohol binding method, completely removing inhibitor and protein pollution
• High recovery – DNA can be recovered at thelevel of PG by silica gel column purification

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K, Carrier RNA should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. The entire kit can be stored at 2-8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.
