Detail
DNase activity in a convenient and sensitive lateral flow colormetric assay that delivers results in real time. Great for Quality Testing for DNase contamination of materials and supplies.
Attogene’s DNaseAlarm Lateral Flow test is designed for the sensitive and accurate analysis of DNAse activity in liquid samples. DNase Alarm uses a synthetic DNA substrate that attaches to the streptavidin colloidal reporter molecule (gold) using a 5’ biotin. The DNA substrate also contains a FAM molecule that enables it to be captured by the anti-FAM antibody (test line). In the absence of DNases, the DNA oligo tethers gold to the test line giving a visual test line. When DNases are present, the DNA substrate is degraded, and the gold particles can no longer be tethered to the test line thus, signal is lost. Since the cleavage of the DNA Substrate increases over time when DNase activity is present, results can be evaluated kinetically. This assay has applications for quality control testing and analysis of unit activities of DNase and DNase inhibitors. DNase’s can cause havoc in laboratories working with DNA and are important to perform routine testing.
This test can be used to rapidly and efficiently detect DNase’s in both liquid and on solid surfaces and a perfect tool for monitoring manufacturing.

Overview
Detection kits for Clostridium difficile
CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Clostridium difficile is rod-shaped, gram positive bacterium. It is the main causal agent of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and pseudomembranous colitis. The colonization of intestines by C. difficile is usually associated with the elimination of natural intestinal flora as a result of antibiotic application and is frequently reported in health care centers. While C. difficile infection could be severe and life-threatening, particularly among the elderly, many patients are asymptomatic making diagnosis challenging during outbreaks. The tradition method of detecting C. difficile infection is by cytotoxicity test of the toxin produced by the bacterium, but such protocols usually require extensive time before conclusion can be made.
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.
Efficient depletion of bovine exosomes from Fetal Bovine Serum
Deplete exosome-sized vesicles from versatile FBS volumes
No protease treatment required
No time-consuming ultracentrifugation
No precipitation reagents required
No overnight incubation required
Exosome depletion confirmed by reduction of bovine miRNAs below detectable levels
The depleted FBS provides the same cellular growth rates as the standard FBS
Purification is based on Norgen’s proprietary Silicon Carbide resin matrix
Norgen’s FBS Exosome Depletion Kits provides a quick and easy protocol for the depletion of bovine exosomes from FBS prior to using it as a growth supplement in your culture medium. The FBS recovered from the depletion process is exosome-depleted and does not contain any quantifiable bovine miRNAs. Moreover, the exosome-depleted FBS will support the growth of your cells of interest similar to the non-depleted FBS. Norgen’s kits allow for the processing of different FBS volumes. The depletion is based on Norgen’s proprietary resin. These kits provide a clear advantage over other available kits in that they do not require ultracentrifugation, any special instrumentation, precipitation reagents or any protease treatments. More importantly, the depletion process is an inexpensive method for exosome depletion from FBS, as compared to the expensive current ready-to-use exosome-depleted media available on the market.
Background
Most culture medium used for the growth and propagation of cells in culture require the addition of fetal bovine serum (FBS) as a growth supplement to media. FBS is obtained from bovine (cow) serum, and therefore contains large quantities of bovine exosome vesicles. These exosomes may interfere with some types of studies, or may lead to unreliable results when studying the exosomes shed from your cells of interest in normal culture conditions. Therefore, the use of exosome-depleted FBS is highly recommended for many types of studies.

Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is the method of choice for detection and quantification of a wide range of micro organisms. Primerdesign manufactures and supplies high quality quantitative real-time PCR kits for the detection and simultaneous quantification of numerous significant pathogens. A copy number standard curve is provided for quantification and an the internal extraction template (DNA or RNA), controls for the quality of the nucleic acid extraction and eliminates false negative results.
The kit is designed with the broadest possible detection profile to ensure that all clinically relevant strains and subtypes are detected. Target sequences are selected by working with data from key opinion leaders in the field. Multiple sequence alignments and unprecedented real-time PCR expertise in design and validation ensure the best possible kit.
Details of the target and priming specificity are included in the individual handbooks above.
