Cysticercosis is caused by larval cysts of the tapeworm Taenia solium and is a major cause of adult onset seizures in most developing countries. Diagnosis is based on imaging findings, but in many cases it is not conclusive for the diagnosis. Serological assays has an important place on the final diagnosis of the disease. The ELISA kit hs shown appropriate performances for the serological screening of cysticercosis.

Test Principle
The kit provides all the material needed to perform 96 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) on breakable microtitration wells sensitized with Taenia solium cyst soluble antigens. Specific antibodies in the sample will bind to these antigens and washing will remove unspecific antibodies. The presence of parasite specific antibodies is detected with a Protein A – alkaline phosphatase conjugate. A second washing step will remove unbound conjugate. Revealing bound antibodies is made by the addition of pNPP substrate which turns yellow in the presence of alkaline phosphatase. Color intensity is proportional to the amount of Taenia solium specific antibodies in the sample. Potassium phosphate is added to stop the reaction. Absorbance at 405 nm is read using an ELISA microplate reader. The test can be performed with automatic systems, but this must be validated by the user.

Ready to Use CdSe/ZnS Qdots Nanoparticle Streptavidin Conjugate for Lateral Flow
Our Streptavidin CdSe/ZnS Quantum Dots (QDs) conjugate is manufactured using special conjugation technology and functonally tested by lateral flow. We have coated our high quality nanoparticles with a proprietary surface coat that covalently binds the biotin forming ultra stable conjugates. The resulting Streptavidin CdSe/ZnS QDs can irreversibly bind biotin.
fluorescent broad range UV light excitation range of 100nm to 400nm, 655nm emission
Highly stable and uniform Streptavidin CdSe/ZnS Qdots in a Ready To Use format
MagPure Stool DNA Kit is specially designed for high throughput DNA extraction from stool samples. It can get high purity microbial DNA from stool samples (≤200mg). This kit is based on magnetic beads purification and unique inhibiting factors adsorption technology, no phenol-chloroform extraction or alcohol precipitation. It can adsorb humic acid and other inhibiting factors in the solution efficiently. DNA can be directly used for downstream applications such as PCR, Viral DNA testing, bacterial DNA testing, etc.

This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and Lysozyme. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by Elution Buffer.

Storage and Stability
MagPure Particles, RNase A and Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 24 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.
