Not all cyanobacterial strains produce toxins. However, the toxin-producing strains cannot be distinguished from the nontoxin-producing strains by traditional light microscopy, commonlyused to monitor water bodies. An alternative for the differentiation of potentially toxic strains from nontoxic strains is to use molecular methods to detect the presence of toxin biosynthetic genes. Such methods are already available and could be used for the detection and identification of potential microcystin and nodularin producers present in environmental samples (Attogene catalog number NA2024).
Screening for the toxin itself, can be very costly. In turn, real time PCR for the detection of a gene region responsible for assembling in cyanobacterial strains and environmental samples can be a key indicator for the prescense of cyanobacteria capable of expressing the aetokthonotoxin toxin. Attogen has thus, designed primer pairs and probes targeting a the conserved gene region in order to enable the amplification and detection of several producer genera using real time PCR. Screening for the toxin genes can save significant costs and act as a triage for samples needing to be analyzed for the toxin itself.
Cyanobacterial neurotoxin aetokthonotoxin (AETX), a peculiar pentabrominated biindole alkaloid implicated in fatal Vacuolar Myelinopathy. This neurodegenerative disease was first recorded in 1994 during an outbreak of bald-eagle poisonings at De Gray Lake in Arkansas, USA. AETX was experimentally confirmed to be produced by the true branching heterocytous cyanobacterium Aetokthonos hydrillicola. The production of AETX is dependent on bromide (Br−) availability, and likely linked to its hyper-accumulation by the host plan. Thus regular monitoring of A. hydrillicola (accompanied by assessment of Br− and AETX levels) is highly advisable to predict the possible threat of further VM outbreaks.
The cyanobacterial AetA gene which encodes the unique FAD-dependent halogenase involved in the pathway for AETX synthesis has been adapted to develop a -aetokthonotoxin specific quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay.

The kit is developed for RNA quantification. The RNA Quantification HS kit includes HS Dye, HS Dilution Buffer, and two RNA Standards. Simply dilute the HS Dye with the HS Dilution Buffer, add RNA sample, then read the concentration using the Qubit Fluorometer. The assay is accurate for RNA concentrations from 250 pg/µL to 100 ng/µL (Figure 1). The RNA Quantification High Sensitivity Kit has several advantages over traditional RNA quantitation such as stability, sensitivity, and contaminant tolerance.
Features
Optimized condition for using with the Qubit Fluorometer
Uses the Qubit RNA High Sensitivity assay setting
Cuts costs by 60%
The performance of the BioDynami RNA Quantification HS kit is nearly identical to that of Thermo Fisher’s Qubit RNA HS kit (figure below).
Common contaminants such as detergents, solvents, salts, free nucleotides, or protein are well tolerated in the assay (Table 1).

An enhanced PCR master mix for allele-specific assays. Improved signal to noise ratio and tight clustering. Developed specifically for genotyping direct from crude DNA samples.
PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix ensures an unrivalled signal-to-noise ratio and produces tight data clusters, even when working with high-throughput, crude DNA preps, resulting in consistently exceptional performance. Efficiently streamline your workflow and reduce costs without compromising the quality of your results.
PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix is an ideal solution for challenging starting material. PACE 2.0 has been specially formulated to overcome the obstacles presented by common PCR inhibitor compounds, such as phenols and tannins. Even notoriously tricky samples like oil palm and conifers can still be assayed using hot shot or other crude DNA prep methods and deliver reliable and accurate data.
PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix uses a novel, universal, fluorescent reporting cassette to produce machine-readable fluorescent signals corresponding to genotypes. PACE 2.0 compatible genotyping assays are comprised of two competitive allele-specific forward primers (which differ in their terminal 3’ bases and unique 5’ tail sequences) and a common, reverse primer. PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix is supplied with ROX normalising dye at a range of levels to ensure compatibility with your qPCR instrument or reader.
Genotyping assay designs are available from 3CR Bioscience through our free assay-design service; once designed, users can purchase assay primers independently or through 3CR Bioscience using our partial or full-assay validation service. PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix is also compatible with KASP™ and Amplifluor® marker assays.
