About
BASIC LEAF CUTTING TOOL
The 3CR Bio Basic Leaf Cutting Tool is a lightweight, easy-to-use, low-cost punch designed for precise sampling of thin or soft materials, ideal for fieldwork. This tool is expertly designed to core, punch, and retrieve samples from thin or soft source materials such as leaves. The tool comprises a convenient, hollow plastic pen-style holder, mounted with a durable stainless steel cutting tip at one end. It features an internal push-button-operated plunger for safe and efficient sample disc ejection. The tool produces a precise ¼ inch diameter disc, making it ideal for detailed sampling tasks. For best results, clean the cutting tip between each sample extraction by coring blank filter paper or rinsing with water or ethanol. This low-cost leaf punch is lightweight, easy to use, and perfect for fieldwork.
ADVANCED LEAF CUTTING TOOL
The 3CR Bio Advanced Leaf Cutting Tool is designed to streamline and enhance your sampling process. This high-precision leaf tissue punch produces a single ¼ inch diameter disc effortlessly. It features a unique mechanism that securely holds a standard snap-top or screw-top 2 mL storage tube in a fixed position, allowing the sample to be received without any need for touching or manipulation. Ideal for fieldwork, this advanced leaf punch significantly reduces effort and time when performing multiple samplings, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in every use.

Overview
Detection kits for Staphylococcus aureus
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
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 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 (Lee et al., 2005). S. aureus is a facultatively anaerobic, Gram positive bacterium. The majority of S. aureus strains are catalase-positive and coagulasepositive, which forms the basis of traditional identification methodology.
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.
iDi® stands for High Discrimination of mismatches at the 3’-terminus of primers in PCR. This myPOLS Biotec enzyme family is optimized for this feature and is the first choice for applications that rely on this property such as allele-specific PCR (asPCR) or allele-specific amplification (ASA).HiDi® Taq 2x PCR Master Mix – ready to use mix simplifies your PCR setup. Only target-specific primers and template need to be added as the mix contains all components for a successful and reliable PCR. This ensures reproducible results, significantly reduces set-up times and the risk of pipetting errors.Please note: This PCR mix is also available as a mix with a nuclease deficient variant, featuring higher robustness towards potential PCR inhibitors and compatibility with real-time dyes such as our GreenDye.Benchmarking with products of competitors conducted by us and others show that the HiDi® DNA polymerase family is the first choice for highly selective PCRs, such as genotyping by allele-specific PCR, HLA genotyping, analysis of single CpG methylation sites or the detection of mutations in a high background of wild-type sequences. By using HiDi® Taq DNA polymerase, less than 10 copies of a mutation can be detected in a background of >10.000 wild-type copies straight away without any other tedious assay optimization.HiDi® Taq DNA polymerase harbours a nuclease function and therefor is also suitable for use with hydrolysis probes (TaqMan® probes etc.). It has also been shown that HiDi® DNA polymerase family is highly suitable for quality control and mutation identification in CRISPR-Cas or TALEN-based applications.Several independently conducted studies show that HiDi® Taq DNA polymerase is ideally suited for use in asPCR in numerous research areas ranging from mutation detection to genome editing.

Example Primer Design
Matching vs. mismatching nucleotide is placed at the 3′-end of the primer for best discrimination results.
Example Results – There´s no accounting for taste
Cilantro: some people love it in their food, some hate it. Here we are detecting a genomic SNP (rs72921001) in HeLa genomic DNA. This SNP is reported to be close to a number of genes coding for olfactory receptors. (Reference: Eriksson N. et al. (2012), “A genetic variant near olfactory receptor genes influences cilantro preference.”)
Considering, that only the C-allele specific primer is extended and yielding in a specific amplicon, we can conclude a genetic predisposition in disliking cilantro, as this SNP is significantly associated with detecting a soapy taste to cilantro.
Allele-specific PCRs were performed from 1 ng/µl of HeLa gDNA in the presence of a realtime dye, indicating the amplification of the C-allele specific primer only. The A-allele specific primer is discriminated, thus not amplified up to 50 cycles.
PCR products were subsequently analysed on a 2.5% agarose gel. Specific product is visualized by ethidium bromide staining at the amplicon length of 109 bp.
