Norgen’s Trichomonas vaginalis End-Point PCR Kit is designed for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis specific DNA based on the use of end-point PCR technology. This kit is designed for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures. The kit includes Master Mix and primers for the specific amplification of a 335 nucleotide region of the Trichomonas vaginalis genome, as well as a positive control and a negative control to confirm the integrity of the kit reagents. In addition, the kit contains loading dye and a DNA ladder to facilitate analysis of the results.
The detection of Trichomonas vaginalis specific DNA is based on end-point PCR technology, utilizing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the amplification of specific Trichomonas vaginalis DNA sequences. For analysis of the PCR data, the PCR reaction is loaded on an agarose DNA gel along with the provided DNA ladder for qualitative analysis.

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.

Crystal clear adhesive film which benefits from pressure activated adhesive. This seal is DMSO resistant, peelable; suitable for qPCR and other imaging techniques including crystallization.
The Kit provides fast purification of high-quality RNA from whole blood, cells and tissues using silica-membrane spin columns with a binding capacity of 100μg RNA. There is no need for phenol / chloroform extractions and time-consuming steps such as CsCl gradient ultracentrifugation or isopropanol precipitation. The purified RNA can be used for applications such as RT-PCR, Northern blotting, poly A+ RNA (mRNA) purification, nuclease protection and in vitro translation.

The Kit simplifies isolation of RNA from blood with a fast spin-column procedure. Red blood cells are selectively lysed and white cells collected by centrifugation. White cells are then lysed using highly denaturing conditions which immediately inactivate RNases. After homogenization using the DNA spin column, the sample is applied to the RNA column. Total RNA binds to the membrane and contaminants are washed away, leaving pure RNA to be eluted in 30–100µl RNase-free water (provided with the kit) for direct use in any downstream application.

Storage and Stability
HiPure Blood RNA Mini Kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used. During shipment, crystals or precipitation may form in the RTL Lysis Buffer. Dissolve by warming buffer to 37°C.
