Overview

• Detection kits for Streptococcus agalactiae
• 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 udder is mainly caused by infection of various bacteria. One of such mastitis bacteria, Streptococcus agalactiae, is highly infectious and causes mainly subclinical infections, which are not identified by the herdsman. As a result, S. agalactiae can spread widely within a herd, causing immediate loss due to reduced milk. S. agalactiae is a gram-positive bacteria belonging to the Group B streptococci. Traditional cultural identification of S. agalactiae is based on S. agalactiae being beta-hemolytic as well as presence of group B Lancefield antigen and by its ability to hydrolyze sodium hippurate.

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

The HiPure Liquid RNA & miRNA Kit integrates phenol/guanidine-based sample lysis and silica membrane purification of total RNA. MagZol LS Reagent, included in the kits, is a monophasic solution of phenol and guanidine thiocyanate designed to facilitate lysis of liquid sample and inhibit RNase. The high lysis efficiency of the reagent and the subsequent removal of contaminants by organic phase extraction enable the use of up to 0.25ml liquid sample per mini spin column.

Principle

0.25ml liquid samples are homogenized in 0.75ml MagZol LS Reagent. After addition of chloroform, the homogenate is separated into aqueous and organic phases by centrifugation. The upper, aqueous phase is extracted, and ethanol is added to provide appropriate binding conditions. The sample is then applied to the spin column, where the total RNA (up to 100 µg) binds to the membrane and phenol and other contaminants are efficiently washed away. High-quality RNA is then eluted in 30–100µl of RNase-free water.

Advantages

• High quality – high purity total RNA can be directly used in various sensitive downstream applications
• Fast – isolation of several samples can be completed in 40 minutes by using column purification method
• Safety – no phenol chloroform extraction required
• Sensitive – direct lysis of blood, plasma and other samples without separation of leukocytes

Storage and Stability

MagZol LS Reagent should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 24 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.
