12 x 8 strips (96 tests)
Fasciolosis is one of the most frequently encountered autochthonous helminthic infections in Central Europe. The immunodiagnosis of Fasciola hepatica infections is challenged by high serological cross-reacitivity with other (hepatic) parasitological infections encountered in Central Europe, such as alveolar echinococcosis, toxocarosis and ascariosis, but also other parasitic infections acquired during overseas travel. The SAP-2 recombinant antigen shows a high specificity, especially with patients with other parasitic infections. It is a suitable serological test for routine diagnosis of human fasciolosis, particularly if the results are supported by clinical history.

Method/Platform
ELISA in microplate format
Range/Assay Sensivity
77% sensitivity, 98% specificity
Test Principle
The kit provides all the material needed to perform 96 enzyme-linked immunosorbant assays (ELISA) on breakable microtitration wells sensitized with Fasciola hepaticarecombinant antigen. Specific antibodies in the sample will bind to the antigen and washing will remove unspecific antibodies. The presence of parasite specific antibodies is detected with a Protein A – alkaline phosphatase conjugate. A second washing step will remove unbound conjugate. Revealing bound antibodies is made by the addition of pNPP substrate which turns yellow in the presence of alkaline phosphatase. Color intensity is proportional to the amount of Fasciola hepatica specific antibodies in the sample. Potassium phosphate is added to stop the reaction. Absorbance at 405 nm is read using an ELISA microplate reader.The test can be performed with automatic systems, but this must be validated by the user.

Overview
Detection kits for HIV
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retrovirus which destroys essential cells in the human immune system, such as CD4+ lymphocytes (a type of T cell), macrophages and dendritic cells. Infection with HIV therefore leads to an impaired immune system and increased susceptibility to opportunistic cancers and infections. Due to the mutating nature of HIV and damage to the T cells, the immune system is unable to fight off infections and disease. Without treatment, HIV can progress to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The rate of HIV progression to AIDS depends on a number of different factors including viral, host and environmental factors. However, with adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), many individuals with HIV will never progress to AIDS, having near normal life expectancy. Transmission of HIV is through direct contact with infected bodily fluids, either sexually; by the sharing of blood-contaminated needles or instruments; maternally through childbirth or breastfeeding; or via blood transfusion/organ transplant.

The HiPure Plant RNA Midi Kit provides fast purification of high-quality RNA from plants, cell, tissues, and yeast using silica-membrane spin columns with a binding capacity of 1mg RNA. There is no need for phenol / chloroform extractions and time-consuming steps such as CsCl gradient ultracentrifugation or precipitation with isopropanol or LiCl. RNA purified using the RaPure Total RNA Purification System can be used for applications such as RT-PCR, Northern blotting, poly A+ RNA (mRNA) purification, nuclease protection, and in vitro translation.

Sample amount
0.5-1 g
Elution volume
≥400μl
Time per run
≤40 minutes
Liquid carrying volume per column
4ml
Binding yield of column

Principle
The Kit isolates total RNA from up to 1g plant tissue. A short workflow enables RNA isolation with genomic DNA removal in less than 40 min. Samples are first lysed and homogenized. The lysate is passed through a DNA Mini column, ethanol is added to the flow-through, and the sample is applied to a RNA column. RNA binds to the membrane and contaminants are washed away. High-quality RNA is eluted in as little as 400µl water using the Kit.
Advantages
Efficient removal of DNA – unique genomic DNA removal column without DNase treatment
High quality – high purity total RNA can be directly used in various sensitive downstream applications
Fast – medium isolation of several samples can be completed in 40 minutes
Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required
Sensitive – RNA can be recovered at the level of PG
Broad spectrum – various types of plant samples can be processed by diversity of operating procedures

Storage and Stability
The Kit can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used. During shipment, crystals or precipitation may form in the Buffer RLC/PRC1. Dissolve by warming buffer to 37°C.
Purchase Guide
1. When dealing with woody or uncommon samples, R4150 is recommended first. R4150 contains two polysaccharide/polyphenol lysis buffer, which is the most universal product.
2. R4151 is recommended for handling common economic crop samples for the first time. Strong lysis solution can be used to process easy-extraction samples. The amount of corn or rice leaves samples can reach up to 300mg.
3. R4165 adopts CTAB/chloroform method, which can also handle a large number of difficult-to-extraction plants, but requires contact with chloroform substitutes, which is less safe than other kits. This kit uses DNase Ⅰ to remove DNA, which is also a good choice for extracting polysaccharide/polyphenol-rich plant samples.
4. R4014 is recommended for fruit/starch plant samples, which uses improved trizol pre-treatment, single column operation and is more economical.
