Principle

Biological samples are first lysed and homogenized in a highly denaturing guanidine isothiocyanate-containing buffer, which immediately inactivates DNases and RNases to ensure isolation of intact DNA and RNA. The lysate is then passed through a Mini spin column. This column, in combination with the high-salt buffer, allows selective and efficient binding of genomic DNA. Flow-through from the column is digested by Proteinase K in the presence of ethanol. This optimized digestion, together with the subsequent addition of further ethanol, allows appropriate binding of total RNA, including miRNA, to the column. Contaminants are efficiently washed away and high-quality RNA is eluted.

Advantages

• High quality – one step RNA extraction reagent combined with silica gel column can obtain the highest concentration
• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 40 minutes
• High applicability – samples including animals, plants, bacteria, cells, etc.
• High concentration – efficiently remove macromolecular RNA, enrich small RNA and improve sensitivity
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction and no use of Trizol reagent

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 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 at least 18 months under these conditions.

The Kit is designed for purification of total RNA, including miRNA and other small RNA molecules (18nt), from cultured cells and various animal and human tissues, including difficult-to-lyse tissues samples.

Overview

Transparent perforated gas permeable film which is peelable, pierceable and suitable for cell culture.

• Our QuickSeal Gas Perm self-adhesive seal is made from an EVA medical tape and is designed for use in cell culture, due to its porous nature
• The seal is compatible with polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene and COC
• It can be removed by peeling, or it can be pierced with a pipette tip manually, or using a liquid handling robot.
• QuickSeal Gas Perm can be utilized for effective overnight incubations, during which it demonstrates significant reductions in evaporation compared to lids
• For all adhesive seals, the best sealing results are achieved using our Hand Roller or KAPS 500 Auto Sealer

Description

Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is the method of choice for detection and quantification of a wide range of micro organisms. Primerdesign manufactures and supplies high quality quantitative real-time PCR kits for the detection and simultaneous quantification of numerous significant pathogens . A copy number standard curve is provided for quantification and an the internal extraction template (DNA or RNA), controls for the quality of the nucleic acid extraction and eliminates false negative results.

The kit is designed with the broadest possible detection profile to ensure that all clinically relevant strains and subtypes are detected. Target sequences are selected by working with data from key opinion leaders in the field. Multiple sequence alignments and unprecedented real-time PCR expertise in design and validation ensure the best possible kit.

Details of the target and priming specificity are included in the individual handbooks above.
