Description
FluoroVue™ Nucleic Acid Gel Stain (10,000X) is specially designed for in-gel use and is a safer replacement for conventional Ethidium bromide (EtBr), which poses a significant health and safety hazard to its users. It is a fluorescent stain which offers highly sensitive detection of double-stranded or single-stranded DNA and RNA in a convenient manner. FluoroVue™ Nucleic Acid Gel Stain offers high sensitivity that is several times greater than EtBr.
FluoroVue™ Nucleic Acid Gel Stain is compatible with both conventional UV gel-illumination systems as well as harmless long wavelength blue light illumination systems, like B-BOX™. When bound to nucleic acids, FluoroVue™ Nucleic Acid Gel Stain has a fluorescent excitation maximum of 250 and 482 nm, and an emission maximum of 509 nm. Therefore, it can replace EtBr without the need of changing existing lab imaging systems.
Features:
Excellent for in-gel staining
Sensitivity: 0.14 ng (DNA) or 1 ng (total RNA)
A safer alternative to EtBr
Compatibility: suitable to blue or UV light
Increased cloning efficiency (blue light)
Storage
Protected from light 4°C for 12 months -20°C for 24 months

CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Cryptosporidium is a parasite found in water that causes an infection in mammals termed cryptosporidiosis. It is one of the most common water-borne diseases and is found world-wide. It affects the intestines of mammals and typically causes an acute short-term infection. The most common symptom is self-limiting diarrhea in healthy individuals, however in immunocompromised individuals the symptoms are particularly severe and often fatal. There is no specific treatment for cryptosporidiosis other than fluid rehydration and management of any pain. Therefore early detection of Cryptosporidium in water is the foremost action to prevent the infection.

Can be used together with Norgen’s RT-PCR Master Mix (#28113) or customer supplied master mix
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All kit components can be stored for 1 year 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.

The procedure for plasma isolation using this kit is compliant with ISO 20186-3:2019
Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes are closed, evacuated plastic tubes for the collection and the preservation of cf-DNA, circulating tumor DNA, cf-RNA and circulating tumor cells in human whole blood samples during storage and shipping. Using these tubes in combination with Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Cell-Free Circulating DNA Purification Kits or Norgen’s Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Kits enables the purification and concentration of an inhibitor-free cf-DNA/ct-DNA/cf-RNA in a very small elution volume. Plasma recovered from Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes is also compatible with any other cf-DNA and/or cf-RNA purification method. The purified cf-DNA, ct-DNA and cf-RNA are compatible with any downstream application assays, including PCR, qPCR, rt-qPCR, methylation-sensitive PCR, Southern Blot analysis, gene expression analysis, microarrays and NGS.
This product is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Performance
Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes abridge the collection/processing of whole blood for the subsequent purification of cf-DNA and/or cf-RNA. The cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes preserve and inhibit the programmed cell-death (apoptosis) of the blood, hence preventing the release of intracellular DNA/RNA into plasma. Whole blood samples can be shipped and stored at room temperature for the subsequent processing of plasma. The cf/ct DNA and cf-RNA levels are stable for up to 30 days at room temperature. The cf-DNA is also stable for up to 8 days at 37°C. When blood collected on Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA tubes is processed for plasma recovery no buffy coat will be generated and the Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) will be located at the bottom of the tube with the blood sediment. CTCs are stable for 14 days at room temperature where it can be extracted from the blood sediment or from whole preserved blood for cell sorting or for cf/DNA or cf-RNA purification.
Plasma samples produced from the whole blood sample collected into Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes and purified using Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Cell-Free Circulating DNA Purification Kits or Norgen’s Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Kits yield concentrated, high-quality and inhibitor-free cf-DNA/ct-DNA or cf-RNA for any downstream application.
