Opentrons Flex Filter Tips, 50 µL

RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is an engineered, extremely thermostable reverse transcriptase and combined DNA polymerase, obtained through directed, artificial evolution.

RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase can be used similarly to Tth DNA polymerase also for reverse transcription, but does not require the addition of Mn2+ for RT-PCR, which simplifies assay setup and possible sample processing.

– half-life at 95°C of >40 min.

– fast start function due to a hotstart aptamer formulation which prevents unspecific amplification at lower temperatures (<57°C)

– facilitates “zero-step” RT-PCRs directly from RNA templates (without an isothermal reverse transcription step), as reverse transcription takes place simultaneously with DNA amplification during the cycled PCR elongation step.

– allows reverse transcription reactions at high temperatures, thus minimizing the problems encountered with strong secondary structures in RNA that melt at elevated temperatures.

– RevTaq RT-PCR DNA polymerase is the pure, reverse transcription active enzyme ingredient of our Volcano3G® RT-PCR Master Mixes

Please note: Due to the thermostable nature of the enzyme, it is recommended to design very high melting primers and probes (>65°C). See more details in FAQ.

The Flex caddy allows the Thermocycler GEN2 to be installed on the Opentrons Flex deck and sit below the deck, enabling below-deck cable routing and labware placed on top of modules to remain closer to the deck surface. The calibration adapter is used to calibrate the location of the Thermocycler. Caddies and calibration adapters are specific to the type of module.

Note: This item does not include the Thermocycler Module. The module is available with or without the Flex Caddy and Calibration tool: Thermocycler Module GEN2

Overview

• Detection kits for NoV
• CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Norovirus is a single-stranded, non-enveloped RNA virus belonging to the Caliciviridae family. Norovirus is considered the major causative agent of non-bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. The main channel of transmittance is via contaminated food or water, as well as human-to-human contact. Most Noroviruses infecting humans belong to genogroup I and II (particularly genotype 4). Norovirus is very stable in the environment and is resistant to some surface disinfectants such as alcohols and detergents. Moreover, it is very difficult to culture Norovirus in vitro, making its identification by standard microbiological assays challenging.
