Overview

• Detection kits for Giardia intestinalis
• CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis.

Giardiasis is a disease of the small bowel caused by the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis (syn.duodenalis or lamblia). Giardia is one of the most common intestinal parasites in the world, and occurs at very high prevalence rates in places with poor water sanitation. Individuals become infected through ingesting or coming into contact with contaminated water, food or soil. It can also be spread through the faecal-oral route due to poor hygiene practices, which makes it common in day-care centers. G. intestinalis lives inside the intestines of infected humans or other animals including cats, dogs, birds, cows, beaver and deer. Symptoms of infection include diarrhea, malaise, excessive gas, bloating, nausea, diminished interest in food, possible vomiting and weight loss.

There are 2 kits available for the detection of Giardia intestinalis:

Giardia intestinalis TaqMan RT-PCR Kit, 100 reactions

• Ready to use format, including Master Mix for the target and PCR control to monitor for PCR inhibition and validate the quality
• Specific Primer and Probe mix for the pathogen/virus/viroid of interest
• Primer and Probe mix
• Positive and negative control to confirm the integrity of the kit reagents

Giardia intestinalis TaqMan RT-PCR Probe/Primer Set and Controls, 100 reactions

• Specific Primer/Probe mix and Positive Control for the pathogen/virus/viroid of interest
• Nuclease-free water
• Can be used together with Norgen’s RT-PCR Master Mix (#28113) or customer supplied master mix

Introduction

This Kit is designed forpurification of high quality circulating DNA (cfDNA) from 1-6ml cell-free bodyfluids (such as plasma, serum). The purified DNA is suitable for direct use indownstream applications such as PCR, real-time PCR, Biochip analysis and NGS.

Principle

This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and protease. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by elution buffer.

Advantages

• Economy – less than 50% of the price of Qiagen and other imported products
• Automatic – without labour
• High purity – OD 260 / 280 : 1.7-1.9, OD 260 / 230 :1.5-2.0

Kit Contents

Contents	IVD5435
Purification Times	50
MagPure Particles F	14 ml
Carrier RNA	310 μg
Proteinase K	240 mg
Protease Dissolve Buffer	15 ml
Buffer SDS	15 ml

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K, Carrier RNA and MagPure Particles F 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.Theremaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.The entire kit can be stored at 2–8°C, but in this case buffers should beredissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.
