Sputum Liquification Buffer (Cat. 28289) can be purchased separately
This kit constitutes an all-in-one system for the rapid isolation of DNA from sputum samples. It allows for the isolation of bacterial or eukaryotic DNA from the sputum samples using spin-column chromatography based on Norgen’s proprietary resin. The kit includes all the reagents needed to process sputum DNA. The protocol can be completed in 30 minutes. Purified DNA is of the highest quality and free from inhibitors, and can be used in sensitive downstream applications including PCR and qPCR.
Background
A sputum specimen is the name given to the mucus which is expectorated from the lower airways. High quality sputum samples should contain very little saliva, as this may contaminate the sputum sample with oral bacteria. Sputum samples are typically evaluated to look for infections such as Moraxella catarrhalis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Streptococcus pneumoniae ;and Haemophilus influenza. Other pathogens can be detected in sputum as well, including HIV. In addition, sputum samples are useful in the detection of lung cancer or to evaluate chronic inflammation.
* Average DNA yield will vary depending on the health status of the donor
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment.
Norgen’s Sputum DNA Isolation Kit contains ready-to-use Proteinase K, which is dissolved in a specially prepared storage buffer. The buffered Proteinase K is stable for up to 2 years after the date of shipment when stored at room temperature.
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.
