Description 

ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcription Kit II is a complete, efficient and convenient kit to synthesize high quality first strand cDNA. This kit contains ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase, which is able to synthesize the first strand cDNA at 37~50°C. The ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase is a recombinant Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MLV) reverse transcriptase, which is designed to reduce RNase H activity and create better thermal stability. This kit also contains RNAok™ RNase Inhibitor, which is active against RNase A, RNase B, and RNase C. This product is supplied with optimized RT Buffer and Oligo (dT)/Random Primer Mix for highly efficient synthesis of short chain cDNA suitable for real-time PCR. 

Features

• Contains all components for reverse transcription 
• High yield 
• Thermostable, up to 50°C 
• Reduced RNase H ribonuclease activity 
• Suitable for real-time PCR 

Application

• Generation of first strand cDNA from total RNA or mRNA.
• Suitable for generating cDNA from RNA with strong secondary structure which can be reduced at temperature up to 50°C. 

Storage

-20°C for 24 months

Overview

• Detection kits for Candida albicans
• CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Candida albicans is an opportunistic yeast and is the most common fungal pathogen found in the human body. C. albicans can be detected in the gastrointestinal tract, mouth, and vagina of approximately half of healthy adults. It is typically a commensal organism and makes up part of the natural human microflora; however it can overgrow and become pathogenic as a result of various conditions. For example, individuals who have taken recent courses of antibiotics, have a weakened immune system or have diabetes have an increased risk of developing a Candida albicans infection. When an overgrowth occurs, this can lead to common infections such as urinary tract infections, genital yeast infections, oral thrush, and mucocutaneous candidiasis. In the more severe cases, when Candida albicans enters the bloodstream or organs, it can lead to loss of sight, blood and bone infections, endocarditis, meningitis or inflammation of the intraabdominal lining.

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.

Introduction

This kit is used for extracting total viral nucleic acid from non-cell/low cell content biological samples such as body fluid, serum, plasma, urine, immersion solution, tissue homogenate supernatant, culture supernatant, etc., the extracted products can be used for clinical in vitro detection.

Specifications

Principle

This product is based on silica gel purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA / RNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption plate and filter column. DNA/RNA is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, DNA / RNA was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10 Mm Tris, pH 8.0).

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 20 minutes by column method
• High quality – high purity total RNA can be directly used in various sensitive downstream applications
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required
• Sensitive – DNA/RNA can be recovered at the level of PG
• High yield – carrier RNA contained in the product maximize the recovery of trace nucleic acid

Storage and Stability

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