The Flex caddy allows the Thermocycler GEN2 to be installed on the Opentrons Flex deck and sit below the deck, enabling below-deck cable routing and labware placed on top of modules to remain closer to the deck surface. The calibration adapter is used to calibrate the location of the Thermocycler. Caddies and calibration adapters are specific to the type of module.
Note: This item does not include the Thermocycler Module. The module is available with or without the Flex Caddy and Calibration tool: Thermocycler Module GEN2

Overview
Detection kits for Staphylococcus aureus
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 bacteria, and Staphylococcus aureus is often considered the most common cause of contagious mastitis in dairy herds. S. aureus infection is estimated to be present in up to 90% of dairy farms and is responsible for 35% of the economic loss in the dairy industry (Lee et al., 2005). S. aureus is a facultatively anaerobic, Gram positive bacterium. The majority of S. aureus strains are catalase-positive and coagulasepositive, which forms the basis of traditional identification methodology.
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.
200 µL filtered pipette tips for the Opentrons Flex, provided sterile in racks or blister packs (refills). Tips are clear, non-conducting polypropylene tips, free of human DNA, PCR inhibitors, RNase/DNase, pyrogens, and endotoxins. Opentrons Flex Tips and Racks are autoclavable.
