Primer and probe mix (150 reactions) Reverse Transcription, target specific primers (RNA genome viruses only) Copy number standard curve (sufficient for multiple standard curves) Internal extraction control – Read through VIC channel* Endogenous control (150 tests) RNAse/DNAse free water *alternative fluorophores available on request
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.
Packaged, optimised and ready to use. Expect Better Data.
Norgen’s TaqMan 2x PCR Master Mix is a ready-to-use TaqMan 2x PCR Master Mix solution that contains a PCR internal control which can be detected by HEX/VIC channel in a real-time PCR machine. By detecting the internal control users can validate the DNA template quality, thereby preventing any false negatives in the PCR results. The user needs only to add template, target TaqMan primer/probe mix and water to set up the TaqMan real-time PCR.
PCR Control: TaqMan 2x PCR Master Mix contains PCR control primers/probe (HEX/VIC) and PCR control template. The PCR control reaction in the TaqMan 2x PCR Master Mix is optimized to not interfere with target amplification. The fluorescence of the target probe should not be HEX/VIC.

Product Info
The NGS Low Input DNA Library Prep Kit (illumina and MGI Platforms) was developed for construction of high quality NGS libraries with low input DNA amount from 1 ng to 400 ng. The kit allows scientist to study samples with limited DNA such as tumor samples, patient samples, and other specially collected samples (FACS sorting etc.). The kit has high library conversion efficiency with as little as 1 ng DNA input. The fast and simple 1.5-hour protocol makes libraries with even coverage and low GC-bias based our unique chemistry for DNA end-polishing and ligation.
The kit needs double strand DNA fragments (blunt and/or sticky) as input DNA for NGS library preparation, and is compatible with DNA fragments generated from both enzymatic approach (for example, BioDynami DNA fragmentation enzymes, Cat.# 40061 and Cat.# 40062) and mechanical approaches such as sonication and nebulization etc.
NGS Low Input DNA Library Prep Kit Workflow
Three index types are available for the NGS Low Input DNA Library Prep Kit of illumina platform:
Non-index (Cat.# 30022): Libraries do not have index.
Index (Cat.# 30024): Each of our index primers contains a unique barcode sequence with 6 bases that can be used to identify the low input DNA libraries. Library multiplexing up to 48 samples is possible. Index information can be downloaded here.
Unique dual index (Cat.# 30025): Library multiplexing up to 96 low input DNA libraries is possible with unique dual indexes with our Four-Base Difference Index System. The system allows us to make indexes for the libraries that have at least 4 bases different from each other in the 8-base barcode length. Our unique dual index primers can reduce sequencing errors such as de-multiplexing errors, amplification errors, mis-assignment of reads, index cross-contamination, and also index hopping. The kit includes 96 pre-mixed unique pairs of index primers. Index information can be downloaded here.
Indexes are available for the MGI platform kits (Cat.# 34024).
Kit advantages:
