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.
This kit is based on a rapid nucleic acid amplification technology at room temperature and constant temperature: at room temperature and constant temperature (generally 39ºC~42ºC), with the help of auxiliary proteins and single-strand binding proteins,the recombinase and primers form a complex; Source search and combine the target homology domain, at this time, a D-loop region is formed at the homology position and strand exchange begins;along with the dissociation of the recombinase from the complex,the polymerase also binds to the 3′ end of the primer and begins chain extension.It is suitable for laboratory-level DNA amplification and DNA amplification for other detection purposes.
The Opentrons 96-well Aluminum Block can be placed directly on the OT-2/Opentrons Flex deck or on the Opentrons Temperature Module. This block can hold full, half, and non skirted PCR plates as well as strip tubes at constant temperature. The aluminum block holds temperatures between 4°C and 95°C when used with the Opentrons Temperature Module (GEN2).

Dietary fiber can generally be described as the carbohydrate content of food that is not digested in the human small intestine. It passes into the large intestine where it is partially or fully fermented. These characteristics of dietary fiber are associated with its numerous well documented health benefits.
Dietary Fiber is a mixture of complex organic substances, including hydrophilic compounds, such as soluble and insoluble polysaccharides and non-digestable oligosaccharides, as well as a range of non-swellable, more or less hydrophobic, compounds such as cutins, suberins and lignins. The procedures for the determination and analysis of total dietary fiber as outlined in our assay protocol are based on the methods of Lee et al.1 and Prosky et al.2,3 (AOAC 991.43, AOAC 985.29, AACC 32-07.01 and AACC 32-05.01). However, the enzymes in the Megazyme Total Dietary Fiber Kit can also be used in other dietary fiber analytical methods such as AACC Method 32-21.01 and AACC Method 32-06.01.

Two separate methods are described in the associated assay protocol:
METHOD 1: DETERMINATION OF TOTAL, SOLUBLE AND INSOLUBLE DIETARY FIBER Based on AOAC Method 991.43 “Total, Soluble, and Insoluble Dietary Fiber in Foods” (First Action 1991) and AACC Method 32-07.01 “Determination of Soluble, Insoluble, and Total Dietary Fiber in Foods and Food Products” (Final Approval 10-16-91).
METHOD 2: DETERMINATION OF TOTAL DIETARY FIBER Based on AACC method 32-05.01 and AOAC Method 985.29.
