Cytokeratin 19 (CK19) forms intermediate filaments found in the intracytoplasmic cytoskeleton of epithelial tissue and provides mechanical support. Anti-Cytokeratin 19 stains epithelia and epithelial malignancies such as carcinomas of the colon, stomach, pancreas, biliary tract, liver, and breast. Cytokeratin 19 is a useful marker for distinguishing hepatocellular carcinoma from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. This differentiation is improved when stained in combination with Cytokeratin 7, CAM5.2l, Ber-EP4/MOC31, HepPar1 and TTF1. Cytokeratin 19 staining can also be used to recognize thyroid papillary carcinomas.

Chlamydia trachomatis, the causative agent of Chlamydia, is a Gram negative bacteria. Transmission of the bacteria occurs via contact with infected bodily fluids which then infect mucosal membranes. It can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy and infect the eyes causing conjunctivitis. The genital infection causes urethritis, epididymitis and prostatitis in males and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) in females with an increased risk of contracting HIV. The infection can be treated with a course of antibiotics. Sexually transmitted infections in females are most often asymptomatic, but can be noticeable in chronic pain of the pelvic region, vaginal bleeding and painful urination. Infection of the ovaries, fallopian tubes or uterus causes Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) which can lead to difficulties in conceiving, increased risk of ectopic pregnancy or infertility. Infections in males are more likely to be symptomatic, causing painful urination, discharge from the penis and swollen testicles and may eventually cause infertility if left untreated.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a Gram-negative coccus of the Neisseria genus. N. gonorrhoeae is usually seen in pairs infecting human cells. It has a circular DNA genome of approximately 1Mbp encoding over 2000 genes. N. gonorrhoeae is transmitted by sexual contact and usually causes infection in cells of the mucous membrane of the male urethra or the endocervix and urethra in females. During infection, polysaccharides are released from the bacteria that stimulate host cell production of tumour necrosis factors that cause an inflammatory response. There is no vaccine against N. gonorrhoeae infection and antibiotic resistance is beginning to increase, therefore treatment includes a course of antibiotics that will be effective against resistant strains. Complications in males caused by the infection can result in prostatitis or orchitis if the bacteria spread. In females, invasion of the fallopian tubes or ovaries can result in salpingitis or ovaritis respectively, with any of these infections possibly resulting in sterility.

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.

endo-BCN-PEG4-acid is a click chemistry reagent with a BCN group witha terminal carboxylic acid (CO2H). The terminal carboxylic acid is reactive with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU) to form a stable amide bond. The BCN group can react with azide -tagged compound or biomolecules. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. Reagent grade, for research purpose.

Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit is an all-in-one, ready-to-use product for the reverse transcription of microRNA from either Total RNA preparations or enriched microRNA preparations. The kit contains the 2x Reaction Mix and the microScript microRNA Enzyme Mix. The kit utilizes Norgen’s microScript Reverse Transcriptase, a mutant version of Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MuLV) Reverse Transcriptase. It has reduced RNase H activity and increased thermal stability.
The workflow of Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit involves a simple, single-tube set-up by the mixing of 2x Reaction Mix, Enzyme Mix and the RNA template. The reaction can then be carried out in a thermocycler. A poly (A) tail is first added to the RNA template, followed by cDNA synthesis using an adapter primer. In addition to the ease-of-use, the single-tube set-up provides superb consistency and sensitivity. The cDNA could be used in a PCR or qPCR amplification using a Universal PCR Reverse Primer and the forward primer that contains the sequence of the microRNA of interest. A single cDNA preparation could be used for PCR amplification of a number of different microRNAs. In addition, the cDNA preparation could be used for PCR or qPCR detection (using gene-specific forward and reverse primers) of mRNA or large RNA if total RNA preparation was the starting template. This could allow for parallel evaluation of expression level of microRNAs and microRNA-targets.
