The Norgen water purification system has been designed in conjunction with experts from Millipore Sigma. The Ultrapure NFW is purified in a two-stage process. The first stage, to produce type II water, includes pre-treatment with activated charcoal and polyphosphate, this water then undergoes reverse osmosis, electro-deionization and ion exchange to remove contaminants as well as UV treatment for disinfection. The Pure water then flows to a second system in a clean room with an additional 4 layers of purification. After passing through an additional ion exchange column, the water is then subjected to Ultrafiltration to remove particulates, bacteria, & ionic contaminants down to trace level, the water is then treated with UV light (182 nm wavelength) to break down organic matter. Lastly a second Ultrafilter for the production of pyrogen-, nuclease- and bacteria-free water at 18.2 MΩ. This water is of utmost purity and suitable for direct use in molecular biology applications such as qPCR and NGS, as well as cell culture and other applications.

Description
The DM5100 ExcelBand™ Super Range DNA Ladder is a ready-to-use DNA ladder, which is pre-mixed with loading dye for direct gel loading. The DNA Ladder DM5100 is composed of 26 individual DNA fragments: 25k, 10k, 8k, 6k, 5k, 4k, 3k, 2.5k, 2k, 1.5k, 1.2k, 1k, 900, 800, 700, 600, 500, 450, 400, 350, 300, 250, 200, 150, 100 and 50 base pairs derived from a mixture of PCR products and specifically digested plasmid DNA. This product contains four enhanced bands (3k, 1.2k, 500 and 200 bp) for easier reference. In addition, three tracking dyes, Xylene cyanol FF, Bromophenol blue and Orange G which mimic the migration of 4,000 bp, 500 bp and 50 bp dsDNA during electrophoresis are added for real time monitoring.

Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the utter is mainly caused by bacteria, and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is often considered the most common cause of contagious mastitis in dairy herds. S. aureus infection is estimated to be present in up to 90% of dairy farms and is responsible for 35% of the economic loss in the dairy industry. S. aureus is a facultatively anaerobic, Gram positive bacterium. The majority of S. aureus strains are catalase-positive and coagulase-positive, which forms the basis of traditional identification methodology.
Staphylococcus aureus Quantified Bacterial DNA Standard is prepared from cultured bacteria using Norgen’s sample preparation technology. The purified DNA is quantified vigorously using multiple methods including spectrophotometry, gel densitometry and real-time PCR. It is intended to be used as a positive control or PCR quantification standard for Staphylococcus aureus.
