Method/Platform
Immunochromatographic Rapid Test
Range/Assay Sensivity
Test Principle
The principle of the test is colloidal gold immunochromatography. If the sample is positive, the antigens in the sample react with the red-colored nanoparticles and form a complex (Antigen – anti-Aspergillus monoclonal antibodies – gold nanoparticles), which was previously pre-dried on the conjugate pad. The mixture then moves upward on the membrane by capillary action. As the sample flows through the test membrane, the binding conjugate complexes migrate. The anti-Aspergillus antibodies present on the membrane (Test Line) capture the colored conjugate complex and a red line will appear.
DBCO-PEG4-Desthiobiotin is a PEG linker containing a desthiobiotin group and a DBCO functional group. Desthiobiotin is used for affinity-based applications such as pull-down assays or for ligating with streptavidin proteins while DBCO is a click chemistry handle that quickly reacts with azide groups on target molecules. Desthiobiotin is a sulfur-free analogue of biotin which binds streptavidin with slightly less strength than biotin, which provides it with a soft-release characteristic that is useful for in pull-down assays by minimizing co-elution with endogenous biotinylated molecules. The inclusion of a PEG linker in this molecule improves its aqueous solubility.

Overview
Detection kits for RSV-A
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Norgen’s Respiratory Syncytial Virus A (RSV-A) TaqMan RT-PCR Detection Kit is designed for the detection of RSV-A specific RNA in a real-time PCR based on the use of TaqMan technology. This kit is designed for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures. The detection of RSV-A specific RNA is based on TaqMan one-step RT-PCR providing a simple, reliable and rapid result for the detection of RSV-A infection. Norgen’s TaqMan RT-PCR Kit includes a PCR control to monitor for PCR inhibition, and to validate the quality of the sample and the detection result. The RSV-A TaqMan RT-PCR Kit comprises Master Mix for the target and PCR control detection, Primer & Probe Mix, as well as a positive control and a negative control (nuclease-free water) to confirm the integrity of the kit reagents.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability All kit components can be stored for 1 year 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.
Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization magnetic beads consist of paramagnetic particles coated with carboxyl groups that reversibly bind DNA. They are used for DNA purification because they are fast, simple and efficient. We have developed our own beads technology that are different from other SPRI beads technologies.
Our Magnetic Beads(DNA & RNA Purification) combines BioDynami’s proprietary chemistries with reversible DNA-binding properties of magnetic beads. The magnetic beads, which are unique from other SPRI beads, are developed for effective nucleic acid purification by removing unwanted components such as salts, dNTPs, enzymes, primers, adapters, and other impurities. The beads are RNase free, can be used for applications of DNA, and even work with more sensitive RNA without any additional cost.
Our magnetic beads are optimized to selectively bind DNA fragments of 100 bp and larger, and RNA fragments of 200 bases and larger, similar to other SPRI beads such as AMPure® XP* and SPRIselect*. Purified DNA and RNA are suitable for downstream applications requiring high quality DNA and RNA, as the purified fragments are free of contaminants and impurities. The beads can be used for NGS library purification, PCR fragment cleanup, molecular cloning, or even nucleic acid concentration.
The beads can also be used for size selection of DNA fragments ranging from 150 bp to 800 bp by changing the bead-to-sample volume ratio and performing single or double-size selection. The beads are an ideal choice for NGS library preparation. They can be easily integrated into the standard workflow of NGS library preparation since the volume ratio is similar for protocols using standard magnetic beads.
Features:
Effective recovery of DNA and RNA samples
DNA fragments greater than 100 base pairs
RNA fragments greater than 200 bases
Removal of unwanted components and impurities
Fragment size selection for specific applications
Consistent single or double-size selection
Flexibility: compatible with manual and automated processing
Cost effective alternative to other beads such as AMPure® XP* and SPRIselect* with equivalent performance
* AMPure® XP and SPRIselect are trade marks of Beckman Coulter.
Magnetic beads recovery rate. dsDNA and ssDNA of genomic DNA, 1 kb DNA, and 200 bp DNA fragments were used. Total RNA was also tested.
Comparison of elution volume vs yield. 40 ul , 30 ul, and 20 ul of elution volume were used. BioDynami magnetic beads have better recovery rates at low elution volume when compared to other SPRI beads such as AMPure® XP*.
