Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is the method of choice for detection and quantification of a wide range of micro organisms. Primerdesign manufactures and supplies high quality quantitative real-time PCR kits for the detection and simultaneous quantification of numerous significant pathogens . A copy number standard curve is provided for quantification and an the internal extraction template (DNA or RNA), controls for the quality of the nucleic acid extraction and eliminates false negative results.
The kit is designed with the broadest possible detection profile to ensure that all clinically relevant strains and subtypes are detected. Target sequences are selected by working with data from key opinion leaders in the field. Multiple sequence alignments and unprecedented real-time PCR expertise in design and validation ensure the best possible kit. Details of the target and priming specificity are included in the individual handbooks above.

Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kits are designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from cultured cells as well as various tissue samples and urine. The purified genomic DNA is fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested, and is completely compatible with PCR and Southern Blot analysis.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Spin Column)
Purification is based on spin column chromatography as the separation matrix. Norgen’s columns bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. The protocol can be completed in approximately 30 minutes for cells and within 90 minutes for tissues. Each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Micro Kit (Micro)
Optimized for small inputs of cells and tissues, such as Laser-Captured Microdissection (LCM). Purification is based on spin column chromatography as the separation matrix. Norgen’s columns bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. Preparation time for a single sample is approximately 60 minutes, and each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System)
Purification is based on the use of magnetic beads that bind DNA under optimized binding conditions. Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System) allows for the isolation of genomic DNA from various types of animal tissues or cell samples. Preparation for 10 purifications is approximately 40 minutes of hands-on time.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput Magnetic Bead System)
Purification is based on the use of magnetic beads that bind DNA under optimized binding conditions. Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) allows for the isolation of genomic DNA from various types of animal tissues or cell samples. The Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) also can be integrated with a robotic automation system.
