Detail
OverView
AZscript™ Reverse Transcriptase (RT) is an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase used to synthesize complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template.
While originating from Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MLV), AZscript RT has been engineered for increased thermostability and reduced RNase H activity.
In cDNA synthesis a higher reaction temperature can reduce RNA secondary structures and improve efficiency and specificity of the reaction.
Furthermore, a reduction in RNase H activity increases performance of the cDNA synthesis, especially for longer transcripts.
The combination of these tailored features ensures that AZscript Reverse Transcriptase provides an effective and reliable solution for various cDNA synthesis applications.
Key Features
Increased thermostability.
Reduced RNase H activity.
Applications

Overview
Detection kits for Listeria monocytogenes
CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis.
Listeria monocytogenes have emerged as significant foodborne pathogens that pose a serious public health problem. As the causative agent of Listeriosis, L. monocytogenes has the highest rate of fatality rate among all foodborne pathogens. L. monocytogenes is a facultatively intracellular, Gram-positive bacterium that could survive high and low temperatures, low pH. It is a rare causative agent of mastitis in cow. However, due to its ability to resist various food processing technologies as well as to grow at low temperature, L. monocytogenes is know to be associated with both raw and pasteurized milk, as well as dairy products such as cheese. As little as 1000 organisms may cause the disease with pregnant, new-born, and immunocompromised individuals the most susceptible.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All kit components can be stored for 2 years 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.
Magnetic bead nucleic acid purification technology uses nano or micron superparamagnetic material as the matrix, generally black ferric oxide or yellowish brown ferricoxide as the magnetic material. The surface of bead is coated with appropriate functional groups, which can adsorb nucleic acid. Magnetic beads commonly used for nucleic acids, containing carboxyl groups, hydroxyl groups, or silicon groups. Silicon-based magnetic beads are the most common, and its principle of adsorbing nucleic acid is consistent with the classical glass milk purification technology or glass fiber filter membrane purification method. Magpure particle is a kind of polydisperse fast speed silica magnetic beads. The core is ferricoxide, accounting for 50%, and the surface coating is silica, accounting for 50%. The product can be used for plasmid extraction, gel DNA recovery, product purification, genomic DNA and RNA extraction, and viral nucleic acid extraction.

Principle
Highsalt mediated binding: in the solution containing 2-4M guanidine isothiocyanate, Magpure particles can selectively recover DNA molecules, and impurities such as protein polysaccharides are not adsorbed.
Alcohol mediated binding: in the solution containing guanidine salt and alcohol (>25%), Magpure particles can selectively recover DNA/RNA molecules, and proteins and other impurities are not adsorbed.
After biological samples are treated with digestive solution or lysis Buffer, DNA/RNA is released from cells, organelles and protein complexes (ribosomes and nucleosomes) into reagents. After Magpure particles and binding solution are added, DNA/RNA is adsorbed to the surface of Magpure particles to form DNA/RNA bead complex. Under the action of the magnetic field, the magnetic beads are separated and collected, and the impurities such as protein are removed with the waste liquid. After two or three steps of further cleaning, the DNA/RNA magnetic bead complex is resuspended in sterilized water or TE buffer, and the DNA/RNA falls off from the surface of the magnetic beads, so as to achieve the purpose of purification.

The MagPure magnetic-particle technology combines the speed and efficiency of silica-based DNA purification with the convenient handling of magnetic particles. DNA binds to the silica surface of the magnetic particles in the presence of a chaotropic salt. DNA bound to the particles is then efficiently washed, considerably improving the purity of DNA. High-quality DNA is eluted. The automated purification procedure completely removes enzymes, nucleotides, and other contaminants and inhibitors. Purified DNA is suitable for direct use in downstream applications, such as sequencing and microarray analysis.

The 16S V2-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina consists of the reagents and components required for library preparation of the 16S V2-V3 amplicon libraries to be used for next-generation sequencing on Illumina platforms. All molecular reagents including primers, enzyme mixes, indexes, and buffers are provided. Instructions for PCR clean up with the AMPure XP Magnetic Beads (supplied by customer) are also included for rapid purification of nucleic acid products generated at two steps of the workflow. The library prep workflow could be used for purified DNA inputs from different sources including stool, soil, water, saliva, plant, urine, skin swab, vaginal swab, cheek swab, nasal swab, plasma/serum, tongue swab, gum swab, and others.
The 16S V2-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina has a streamlined procedure that reduces the handling time such that the library prep procedure can be completed in approximately 4 hours (see diagram below). Input DNA is first subjected to targeted PCR to amplify the V2-V3 region of the DNA encoding 16S rRNA. The post-PCR reaction is then cleaned up using AMPure XP beads. Dual index primers are then added using a limited-cycle PCR. The indexed amplicons flanked by 5′ and 3′ barcoded adaptors are then cleaned using AMPure XP beads. The libraries are then ready for quantification, pooling and sequencing.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability Norgen’s 16S V2-V3 Library Prep Kit for Illumina is shipped as one kit box (for the 24 prep kit) or two sub-component kits (for the 96 prep kit). All kits should be stored at -20°C upon arrival.
All kit components should remain stable for at least 1 year when stored at the specified storage conditions.
