Description

Microcystin are a class of hepatotoxins produced by blue-green algae such as Microcystis aeruginosa.  Microcystin-LR is the most common of the over 50 different congeners. Cyanobacteria can produce microcystin in large quantities during an algae bloom which then pose a major threat.

This kit can be used for Congener-Independent quantitative test of Microcystin in liquid samples such as drinking, ambient and waste water and algal cultures.

Additional Quality Control, Calibration Verification, and Spiking Solution materials can be obtained separately in optional Supplemental Pack for Method 546 (catalog # EL2024-Q).

Microcystin-LR

ssDNA Quantification Kit

The ssDNA Quantification Kit is developed for single stranded DNA quantification. The kit includes ssDNA Dye, ssDNA Dilution Buffer, and two ssDNA Standards. Simply dilute the ssDNA Dye with the ssDNA Dilution Buffer, add DNA sample (volume from 1-20 μL), then read the concentration using the Qubit® Fluorometer. The assay is accurate for DNA concentrations from 50 pg/µL to 200 ng/µL based on the line corresponding of the data to standards.

Our kit detects ssDNA by using fluorescent dye that enables sensitive single stranded DNA quantification , including ssDNA viruses, synthetic ssDNA, first-strand cDNA synthesis, denatured DNA, and bisulfate-converted DNA etc. ssDNA quantification is essential for the study of the biological process involves ssDNA.

Features

• • • Optimized for use with the Qubit® Fluorometer
    • Uses the Qubit® ssDNA assay setting
    • Linear range: 1-200 ng ssDNA
    • Cost saving by more than 50%

A series of input ssDNA (200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, and 1200 ng) was used.

The performance of the BioDynami ssDNA Quantification Kit is nearly identical to that of Thermo Fisher’s Qubit ssDNA kit (figure below).

Comparison of BioDynami ssDNA Quantification Kit with Thermo Fisher kit.

Common contaminants such as salts, solvents, or detergents are well tolerated in the assay (Table 1).

Contaminants has been tested in BioDynami ssDNA Kit.
