Overview

• Detection kits for Streptococcus uberis
• 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 utter is mainly caused by infection of various bacteria. Streptococcus uberis is a gram-positive bacterium that is known worldwide as an environmental pathogen responsible for a high proportion of cases of mastitis in lactating cows and is also the predominant organism isolated from mammary glands during the non-lactating period. Often it is resistant to treatment and causes persistent high somatic cell counts without clinical mastitis.

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

This Kit is designed to purify genomic DNA and total RNA simultaneously from a single biological sample. Lysate is first passed through a DNA spin column to selectively isolate DNA and then through an RNA column to selectively isolate RNA. Pure DNA and RNA are purified from the entire sample, in contrast to other procedures where either the biological sample or the purified total nucleic acids is divided into two before being processed separately. The kit is compatible with small amounts of a wide range of animal cells and tissues.

Principle

The Kits are designed to purify both genomic DNA and total RNA from the same cellor tissue sample. Samples are first lysed and homogenized. The lysate is passed through a DNA Mini column and bind DNA. Ethanol is added to the flow-through and the sample is applied to an RNA column. DNA/RNA binds to the membrane and contaminants are washed away. High-quality RNA is eluted in as little as 30µl water using the Kit. High-quality DNA is eluted in as little as 50µl water using the Kit.

Advantages

• High quality – high purity total RNA / DNA can be directly used in a variety of downstream applications
• Fast – column method can complete the extraction of several samples in 30 minutes
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required
• Simultaneous extraction- simultaneously isolate DNA and RNA from one sample

Description 

ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcription Kit II is a complete, efficient and convenient kit to synthesize high quality first strand cDNA. This kit contains ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase, which is able to synthesize the first strand cDNA at 37~50°C. The ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase is a recombinant Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MLV) reverse transcriptase, which is designed to reduce RNase H activity and create better thermal stability. This kit also contains RNAok™ RNase Inhibitor, which is active against RNase A, RNase B, and RNase C. This product is supplied with optimized RT Buffer and Oligo (dT)/Random Primer Mix for highly efficient synthesis of short chain cDNA suitable for real-time PCR. 

Features

• Contains all components for reverse transcription 
• High yield 
• Thermostable, up to 50°C 
• Reduced RNase H ribonuclease activity 
• Suitable for real-time PCR 

Application

• Generation of first strand cDNA from total RNA or mRNA.
• Suitable for generating cDNA from RNA with strong secondary structure which can be reduced at temperature up to 50°C. 

Storage

-20°C for 24 months
