Attogene’s PCR kit for Microcystin is designed for the In vitro analysis of the MycE gene region responsible for assembling part of the Microcystis peptide. The MycE gene region specific primer and probe mix is provided to be detected through the FAM channel on a qPCR machine. A sample of algae is obtained and washed to extract a clean algal gDNA sample. A reaction mixture is assembled from primers, probe, master mix, and gDNA samples as required. The qPCR machine of choice is set up and loaded as needed and the mixture undergoes PCR amplification. The Primer mix provided exploits the Taq polymerase to amplify the gene region of interest; while the DNA probe mixture is cleaved during amplification to release its FAM fluorophore. The resulting FAM release can be detected on a variety of qPCR platforms.

DNA Concentrator (Magnetic Beads)
The DNA Concentrator (Magnetic Beads) can be used to efficiently concentrate DNA/RNA from various samples with low concentration without the need of a DNA vacuum concentrator. Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization (SPRI) magnetic beads are well used for DNA and RNA purification and concentration. The beads are paramagnetic particles coated with carboxyl groups that reversibly bind to DNA and RNA.
The concentrator protocol is simple: mix Concentrator Buffer and Concentrator Beads with the sample, wash, and elute pure DNA in a small volume to concentrate the DNA samples. Moreover, the DNA/RNA samples are also purified during the procedure. The beads with our unique technology purify DNA/RNA samples effectively by removing unwanted components such as dNTPs, enzymes, detergents, proteins, and other contaminants.
However, traditional magnetic beads can only bind nucleic acids that are 100 bp or longer. Nucleic acids shorter than 100 bp are not effectively recovered. We have successfully developed the kit that overcomes the hurdle of short nucleic acids recovery. The reagent can be used for concentration of samples from genomic DNA to short DNA/RNA.
Recovery rate
>90% for DNA size >30 bp
>80% for DNA size between 20-29 bp
Features
Effective concentrator of DNA and RNA samples, even small DNA, RNA, oligos
Binding capacity: 10 ug DNA per prep
Removal of unwanted components and other impurities

The 16S V1-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina consists of the reagents and components required for library preparation of the 16S V1-V3 amplicon libraries to be used for next-generation sequencing on Illumina platforms. All molecular reagents including primers, enzyme mixes, indexes, and buffers are provided. Instructions for PCR clean up with the AMPure XP Magnetic Beads (supplied by customer) are also included for rapid purification of nucleic acid products generated at two steps of the workflow. The library prep workflow could be used for purified DNA inputs from different sources including stool, soil, water, saliva, plant, urine, skin swab, vaginal swab, cheek swab, nasal swab, plasma/serum, tongue swab, gum swab, and others.
The 16S V1-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina has a streamlined procedure that reduces the handling time such that the library prep procedure can be completed in approximately 4 hours (see diagram below). Input DNA is first subjected to targeted PCR to amplify the V1-V3 region of the DNA encoding 16S rRNA. The post-PCR reaction is then cleaned up using AMPure XP beads. Dual index primers are then added using a limited-cycle PCR. The indexed amplicons flanked by 5′ and 3′ barcoded adaptors are then cleaned using AMPure XP beads. The libraries are then ready for quantification, pooling and sequencing.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability Norgen’s 16S V1-V3 Library Prep Kit for Illumina is shipped as one kit box (for the 24 prep kit) or two sub-component kits (for the 96 prep kit). All kits should be stored at -20°C upon arrival.
All kit components should remain stable for at least 1 year when stored at the specified storage conditions.
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.
