Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) or Human betaherpesvirus 5 (HHV-5) is a member of the Family Orthoherpesviridae. HCMV belongs to the betaherpesvirinae subfamily, while other herpesviruses fall into the subfamilies of Alphaherpesvirinae (including HSV 1 and 2 and varicella) or Gammaherpesvirinae (including Epstein-Barr virus). All herpes viruses share a characteristic ability to remain latent within the body over long periods of time. While CMV can be found in numerous body fluids including urine, saliva, breast milk, blood, tears, semen, and vaginal fluids, urine samples are generally used for congenital HCMV infection screening due to high viruria observed in infected infants.

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.

ProbeSure Master Mix combines class-leading performance with the most competitive prices in the market. ProbeSure Master Mix has provided users with accurate, robust, and consistent performance for many years. It has been carefully optimised to work over a wide range of reaction volumes and sample template qualities.
ProbeSure Master Mix is supplied at 2x concentration for convenience and is supplied with the ROX normalising dye at either high level (500 nM final concentration), low level (25 nM final concentration) or without ROX.
Ideal magnet for all of your low volume needs. From Low elution 96-well PCR applications to 384-well, the X396 has you covered. No need to purchase two separate plates anymore. 96-well volumes as low as 4 µL are achieved from 96-well, PCR plates on the inside of the magnet, while the outside of each magnet will pull beads to well sides in 384-well plates.
ANSI/ SBS Footprint (127.75mm x 85.50mm) to fit into any automated liquid handling robot on bottom. ANSI/SBS footprint on top to accept all common microplates.
Integrated Cushion base for maximum recovery. Helps aid in set-up, robot positioning inconsistencies, and labware consumable inconsistencies
Features include solid aluminum alloy construction and hard coat anodized finish for years of trouble-free use, and compatible with any magnetic beads
