48×1.5/2ml Angle Rotor 

Overview

• Simultaneous isolation of both host RNA and microbial RNA (universal protocol)
• Isolate full diversity of RNA from large RNA down to small and microRNAs
• Eliminates PCR inhibitors including humic acids
• High quality RNA for sensitive downstream application
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

This kit provides a convenient and rapid method to purify total RNA from small amounts of stool samples. All types of stool samples can be processed with this kit, including animal fecal samples, manure and samples collected using Norgen’s Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Tubes (Cat. 45660). The kit removes all traces of humic acids using rapid and simple spin column procedures. Bead tubes are also provided for effective homogenization of stool. The kit purifies all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA and small interfering RNA. Both host and microbial RNA is recovered. The protocol does not rely on the use of phenol or chloroform, thereby providing a user friendly procedure and allowing high-throughput analysis. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR and reverse transcription PCR for gene expression analysis. The procedure can be completed in approximately 30 minutes for 10 samples.

Overview

• Detection kits for E.coli O157:H7
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

E. coli O157:H7 is a rod-shaped, gram negative bacterium. It is an enterohemorrhagic strain of the common E. coli bacterium and infection by the O157:H7 strain is commonly associated with hemorrhagic colitis. E. coli O157:H7 is recognized by its somatic (cell wall) antigen (O157) and its flagella antigen (H7). In addition, E. coli O157:H7 is known to produce Shiga-like toxins, which cause severe symptoms. While most patients can recover from the infection, up to 15% of the patients may develop hemolytic uremic syndrome, a type of kidney failure that could be fatal. Infection of E. coli O157:H7 usually results from consumption of poorly prepared food including undercooked meat (particularly ground beef), untreated water or raw unpasteurized milk.
