Our SNPsig® kits use our own proprietary genotyping method to enable the identification of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. These products can be used on any real-time PCR machine using familiar protocols, whilst resulting in exceptional genotyping data.
Positive control templates for wild-type and variants are supplied in every kit to make data interpretation simple.
Our SNPsig® technology provides an alternative to sequencing as well as S gene target failure (SGTF) that enables scientists to analyse and monitor these specific genomic mutations. Our kits can provide a pivotal role in screening for SARS-CoV-2 variants for the purpose of genomic surveillance and studies.

96 reactions, includes master mix
Non-woven gas permeable seal that limits evaporation. The seal is peelable, pierceable; suitable for cell culture and seed & insect storage too.
Heat sealing offers a 100% effective method for plate sealing for a complete seal integrity, as well as being quick and cost effective
Our Gas PermASeal Heat Seal is made from a non-woven material and is designed for use in cell culture, due to its porous nature
The seal is compatible with polypropylene and polystyrene
It can be removed by peeling, or it can be pierced with a pipette tip manually, using a liquid handling robot.
Gas PermASeal Heat Seal can be utilized for effective overnight incubations, during which it demonstrates significant reductions in evaporation compared to lids
It can also be used for insect and seed storage as it enables gas exchange, whilst providing an inert surface with no adhesive to interfere with the well contents
This seal is available as sheets, for use with manual and semi-automated sealers, such as our HeatASeal 500 Sealing Machine
Also available in multiple roll formats compatible with specified automated heat sealers, such as our Wasp or Chameleon XT

Parvovirus B19 was the first known human virus in the family of Parvoviruses. B19 is a non-enveloped, icosahedral virus that contains a single-stranded linear DNA genome. It is classified as an erythrovirus because of its capability to invade red blood cell precursors in the bone marrow. B19 virus causes a childhood rash called fifth disease or erythema infectiosum which is commonly called “slapped cheek” syndrome due to the appearance of erythema across the cheeks. The virus is primarily spread by infected respiratory droplets, but some cases of blood-borne transmission have been reported. Parvovirus infection in pregnant women is associated with hydrops fetalis due to severe fetal anemia, sometimes leading to miscarriage or stillbirth. The risk of fetal loss is about 10% if infection occurs before week 20 of pregnancy. There is also some evidence that intrauterine Parvovirus B19 infection leads to developmental abnormalities in childhood. Due to the serious nature of the virus, methods for its rapid diagnosis are desirable.

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.
