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.

Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit is an all-in-one, ready-to-use product for the reverse transcription of microRNA from either Total RNA preparations or enriched microRNA preparations. The kit contains the 2x Reaction Mix and the microScript microRNA Enzyme Mix. The kit utilizes Norgen’s microScript Reverse Transcriptase, a mutant version of Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MuLV) Reverse Transcriptase. It has reduced RNase H activity and increased thermal stability.
The workflow of Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit involves a simple, single-tube set-up by the mixing of 2x Reaction Mix, Enzyme Mix and the RNA template. The reaction can then be carried out in a thermocycler. A poly (A) tail is first added to the RNA template, followed by cDNA synthesis using an adapter primer. In addition to the ease-of-use, the single-tube set-up provides superb consistency and sensitivity. The cDNA could be used in a PCR or qPCR amplification using a Universal PCR Reverse Primer and the forward primer that contains the sequence of the microRNA of interest. A single cDNA preparation could be used for PCR amplification of a number of different microRNAs. In addition, the cDNA preparation could be used for PCR or qPCR detection (using gene-specific forward and reverse primers) of mRNA or large RNA if total RNA preparation was the starting template. This could allow for parallel evaluation of expression level of microRNAs and microRNA-targets.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability Norgen’s microScript microRNA cDNA Synthesis Kit components should be stored at -20°C. These reagents should remain stable for at least 1 year in their unopened containers.
Not all cyanobacterial strains produce toxins. However, the toxin-producing strains cannot be distinguished from the nontoxin-producing strains by traditional light microscopy, commonly used to monitor water bodies. An alternative for the differentiation of potentially toxic strains from nontoxic strains is to use molecular methods to detect the presence of toxin biosynthetic genes. Such methods are already available and could be used for the detection and identification of potential microcystin and nodularin producers present in environmental samples (Attogene catalog number NA2024).
Screening for the toxin itself, can be very costly. In turn, real time PCR for the detection of the anaC gene in cyanobacterial strains and environmental samples can be a key indicator for the prescense of cyanobacteria capable of expressing the Anatoxin toxin. Attogen has thus, designed primer pairs and probes targeting a the conserved anaC gene region in order to enable the amplification and detection of several producer genera using real time PCR. Screening for the toxin genes can save significant costs and act as a triage for samples needing to be analyzed for the toxin itself.
