96-Well 0.2 mL PCR Strip Rack SBS/ SLAS Footprint

Name of Product

Trichinella spiralis – IgG ELISA

Catalog Number

9750

Short Info

Trichinellosis is caused by Trichinella spiralis, a parasitic nematode of pork, horse and wild animals. Humans can be infected by eating raw or undercooked meat from infected animals. Most infected people do not show any symptoms. However, in some cases, symptoms appear during intestinal stage (diarrhea and abdominal pain) and muscular stage (muscle pain, fever, edema). Diagnosis is based on signs and symptoms, but in many cases it is not conclusive for the diagnosis. Serological assays have an important place on the final diagnosis of the disease. The ELISA kit has shown appropriate performance for the serological screening of trichinellosis.

This product is manufactured by Bordier Affinity Products in Switzerland and distributed in Germany exclusively by Milenia Biotec.

Method/Platform

ELISA in microplate format

Range/Assay Sensivity

95% sensitivity, 98% specificity

Test Principle

The kit provides all the material needed to perform 96 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) on breakable microtitration wells sensitized with Trichinella spiralis excreted/secreted (E/S) larval 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 Trichinella spiralis 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.

Overview

• Compatible with PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes
• Isolate true total RNA including siRNA and microRNA
• No phenol extractions
• Purify high-quality RNA in 30 minutes
• Purified RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

Norgen’s Preserved Blood RNA Purification Kit II provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA from blood that has been preserved using PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes*. The kit purifies all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA). The RNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components such as proteins, without the use of phenol or chloroform.

Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Norgen’s proprietary resin provides superior affinity to the full size range of RNA molecules, resulting in large and small RNA (miRNA) purification with better linearity and sensitivity. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time RT-PCR, RT-PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, expression profiling, miRNA cloning and amplification and Next Generation Sequencing.

* PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes are a product of PreAnalytiX GmbH.  PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes are not provided.
