What is the genesig q16? The genesig q16 is a revolutionary instrument launched by Primerdesign Ltd. The instrument is designed to accompany the genesig Easy product range which includes kits for more than 550 different DNA testing applications. The genesig q16 is designed to make DNA testing affordable and easy for anyone in any business.
What is DNA testing? DNA testing is the most sensitive and precise way to detect and quantify the presence of a DNA target. The underlying technology within the genesig q16 is real-time quantitative PCR. The technology has been around for 20 years, but to date has been complex and expensive to perform. The genesig q16 changes all that.
What can I use it for? The genesig Easy product range includes tests for a massive range of applications:

Cod Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (Cod UNG) from Atlantic Cod is the only commercially available UNG enzyme that is completely and irreversibly inactivated by moderate heat treatment. The enzyme is produced in a recombinant E. coli (ung-) strain that contains a modified Cod UNG gene.
Key Features:
Heat-labile – Completely and irreversibly inactivated at 55°C
Contamination control – ideal in applications below
Use of Cod UNG makes contamination control possible in RT-PCR
Does not degrade PCR product post-PCR. This makes downstream use of the PCR product possible
High purity enzyme, tested free of contaminating nucleases
There are several commercially available Uracil-DNA glycosylases on the market today. Most of them are of bacterial origin and work well if you have no intention to further analyze the PCR products post-PCR. However, if you want to store your PCR products for downstream analysis such as cloning and sequencing, the reactivation of UNG and subsequent degradation of your PCR products are a problem with most of the commercially available UNGs. Cod UNG from ArcticZymes is completely and irreversibly inactivated by heat thus ensuring that sample integrity is maintained long-term regardless of storage conditions.
This is illustrated in figure 1, below

Properties
Recommended Protocols
1. Contamination control in PCR, qPCR and one-step RT-qPCR
Cod UNG works in all commercially available master mixes.
Be sure that you have used dUTP containing dNTP mixes in your previous PCR experiments.
Add 0.2 U Cod UNG directly to your 20 µl PCR reaction.
pre-incubate for 5 min at room temperature.
For RT-qPCR, reverse transcribe your RNA at 50-55°C.
Run your PCR.
Store your PCR product at -20°C or 4°C degrees.
2. Contamination control in RT-LAMP
Cod UNG is ideal for contamination control in RT-LAMP. One unit of Cod UNG per 30 μl reaction is sufficient for removing even high concentrations of carry-over contamination.
Ensure that you use dNTP mixes containing dUTP in your experiments.
Check that the RT-LAMP reaction is compatible with dUTP by running side-by-side reactions containing different ratios of dUTP to dUTP (100% dUTP, 90% dUTP, 80% dUTP and 0% dUTP).
Add 1 U Cod UNG directly to your 30 µl RT-LAMP reaction.
Prepare the reaction mix on ice.
Analyze your RNA at 65°C, no preincubation is necessary.

Description
The DM1160 FluoroBand™ 50 bp Fluorescent DNA Ladder is a ready-to-use DNA ladder, which is pre-mixed with high sensitivity DNA binding fluorescent dye and loading dye for direct gel loading. The DNA Ladder DM1160 is composed of 17 individual DNA fragments: 1.5k, 1.2k, 1k, 900, 800, 700, 600, 500, 450, 400, 350, 300, 250, 200, 150, 100, and 50 bp derived from a mixture of PCR products and specifically digested plasmid DNA; these bands can be visualized when illuminated with 470 nm blue light or a UV light. This product contains two enhanced bands (500 bp and 200 bp) for easier reference. In addition, the low range Orange G tracking dye which mimics the migration of a 50 bp dsDNA during electrophoresis is also added for real time monitoring. Real time observation of the electrophoresis is also possible if compatible light source is fitted to the electrophoresis tank.

Salmonella enterica have emerged as significant foodborne pathogens that pose a serious public health problem. The symptoms of salmonellosis may include diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and abdominal cramps with elderly, new-born, and immunocompromised individuals the most susceptible. S. enterica is a facultatively anaerobic Gram-negative bacterium that could survive low temperatures and freezing. The majority of the 1.3 billion annual cases of Salmonella-caused human gastroenteritis result from ingestion of contaminated food products, such as raw or undercooked meat, seafood, and eggs, as well as raw or unpasteurized milk and dairy products. Salmonella infections are also contracted following consumption of fresh fruits or vegetables that have been contaminated by infected fertilizer.

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.
