Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a pathogenic bacterial species belonging to the genus Mycobacterium, and is the causative agent of tuberculosis. Tuberculosis (TB) is a multifaceted disease and challenging public health problem in both industrialized and developing countries. According to the WHO, 8.8 million active cases of TB are diagnosed each year and of these, almost 2 million die. Once thought to be under control or even close to extinction, TB infection levels are rising and the threat is compounded by new, virulent and drug-resistant strains. Although most cases occur in the developing world (22 countries accounting for 80% of all global cases), increasing population mobility combined with facility of transmission means that no country is immune from the resurgence of TB. TB control programs are currently facing a number of constraints. Worldwide, fewer than 25% of all tuberculosis cases are detected. Of utmost concern is the absence of a timely and accurate test for the diagnosis of mycobacterial disease. Early diagnosis is crucial for the prevention of further spread of the disease.

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.

Interested in the analysis of DNA or RNA modifications? Then this DNA polymerase could simplify your site-specific analysis of such modifications. The 2′-O-Me sensitive DNA polymerase was engineered to catalyse DNA synthesis from both DNA and RNA and to quantify 2′-O-methylation of nucleotides site-specifically from RNA by real-time PCR. For further information refer to the original publication.   

Available upon request and for R&D use only – Contact Us 

The 2′-O-Me sensitive DNA polymerase is supplied as a 5 µM solution containing glycerol and is supplied together with 10x reaction buffer. 

The enzyme can also be used for real-time cycling, when adding a suitable dye.
