• Rapid dipstick test for detecting Staphylococcus Enterotoxin B (SEB) in liquid samples
• Detects 10 ppb and greater Staphylococcus Enterotoxin B (SEB) in the sample

Description

The contamination of pathogenic microorganisms and their toxins in food and water is a serious issue for human health and safety. For instance, enterotoxins (SEs) produced by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) are heat-stable, meaning pathological activity remains even after exposure to sterilization techniques and digestive proteases. Among the SEs, staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) and B (SEB) are confirmed toxins which cause enteritis and food poisoning. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, which in
severe cases, may lead to fatalities in children and the elderly.  These SEs, known as superantigens, non-specifically activate Tcells, leading to proliferation which ultimately results in T-cell elimination. This activation directly and indirectly induces a massive release of inflammatory cytokines.

In addition to acute poisoning, researchers reported that these toxins may play roles in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. More specifically, intestinal dysbiosis (enteromicrobial imbalance) was found in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and which may overwhelm the host immune defense functions by chronic exposure to excess amounts of these pathogens (7, 8). In animal models, SEs synergistically play a role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune-related diseases, such as atopic dermatitis, food allergies, colitis, arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

Attogene is offering this highly robust test to detect SEB by lateral flow in diverse liquid sample types.

Introduction

Free-circulating nucleic acids, such as tumor-specific extracellular nucleic acid fragments and mRNAs in the blood or fetal nucleic acids in maternal blood, are present in serum or plasma usually as short fragments, <1000bp(Nucleic Acid). The HiPure Circulating Nucleic acid Micro Kit enables efficient purification of these circulating nucleic acids from human plasma, serum, or urine. Samples can be either fresh or frozen (provided that they have not been frozen and thawed more than once). Free-circulating cell-free DNA, RNA or viral nucleic acids are eluted in Nuclease Free Water, ready for use in amplification reactions or storage at -30 to -15°C. Purified nucleic acids are free of proteins, nucleases, and other impurities.

Principle

This product is based onsilica column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate andprotease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption plate andfilter column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is notadsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and otherimpurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer.

Advantages

• High yield – most optimal process, free DNA (>50bp) can be obtained to the maximum extent
• High concentration – low elution volume, ensuring high nucleic acid concentration
• High purity – low alcohol binding method, completely removing inhibitor and protein pollution
• High recovery – DNA can be recoveredat the level of PG by silica gel column purification

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K, Carrier RNAshould be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. Theremaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) andare stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. The entire kit can bestored at 2-8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use.Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.
