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.
MutS Homolog 6 (MSH6) is a protein involved in the mismatch repair pathway. This protein is commonly associated with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, and mutations in this gene are correlated with the development of sporadic colorectal carcinoma. Studies have shown that mutations in MSH6, when co-indicated with mutations in MSH1 and MSH2, contribute to the development of sporadic colorectal carcinoma. Use of Anti-MSH2 is optimized when paired with MSH6, MLH1, and PMS2 in an IHC panel.
Rapid AAV DNA extraction and quantification can be completed in 2 hours
Universal qPCR assay targeting the AAV2 ITR enables quantification of most AAV vector constructs
Purified DNA standard enables easy comparison of data between different lab groups
Non-plasmid based standard prevents quantification artifacts due to insufficient melting of plasmid sequences
DNAse digestion step aids in eliminating non-viral DNA
Minimal sample handling for maximum AAV DNA recovery
Norgen’s AAV Quantification Kit is designed for the detection of adeno-associated virus (AAV) inverted terminal repeat (ITR) sequences in a real-time PCR based on the use of TaqMan® technology. A purified standard based solely on the AAV2 ITR sequence purified using Norgen’s proprietary silicon carbide technology simplifies the generation of a reliable standard curve for AAV quantification. Avoidance of a plasmid based standard eliminates problems associated with efficient melting of the ITR sequence due to coupling of the ITR to the much longer plasmid sequence, as well as variability due to rearrangements/duplications/deletions of the recombination prone ITR. An easy and rapid method for viral DNA extraction simplifies the step of obtaining AAV DNA while simultaneously eliminating contaminating non-encapsidated DNA. Norgen’s AAV Quantification Kit can facilitate pre-clinical studies that require accurate vector titration as well as interlab comparisons of vector quantities. This kit is designed for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability 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. All reagents can be stored for 1 year at -20°C without showing any reduction in performance.
CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Bacillus cereus is a rod-shaped, gram-positive bacterium. Some strains of B. cereus cause foodpoisoning and other diseases such as keratitis. B. cereus grows at a wide range of temperature, from 4°C to 37°C. In fact, many foodborne illnesses caused by B. cereus are a consequence of improperly cooked or improperly stored food, including dairy products and meats. The majority of food poisoning by B. cereus could be divided into two types of symptoms – the emetic type and the diarrheal type, both of which are caused by the enterotoxin produced by the bacteria.
