A custom designed PACE® Genotyping Assay, designed to your target sequence. Compatible with all PACE genotyping master mixes.

About

PACE (PCR Allelic Competitive Extension) genotyping chemistry is a homogeneous, PCR-based allele-specific technology for the analysis of DNA sequence variants, most commonly SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) and Indels (insertion / deletions).

PACE genotyping chemistry is comprised of two parts:

1. PACE Genotyping Assay: two allele-specific forward primers and one common, reverse primer. The allele-specific forward primers each have different 3′ terminal bases reflecting the target variant, and a unique 5’ tail sequence which is incorporated as part of the fluorescent signal mechanism.
2. PACE Genotyping Master Mix: containing all remaining components required for PCR and the generation of fluorescent signals. PACE Genotyping Master Mix contains a novel, universal, fluorescent reporting cassette to produce machine-readable fluorescent signals (FAM and HEX) corresponding to the assay genotypes.

When combined with sample DNA, these components create a PACE Genotyping Reaction, as illustrated in the figure below.

We have extensive knowledge and experience in assay design, especially when it comes to allele-specific PCR. PACE Genotyping Assays are available to purchase either Validated and Unvalidated. Validated assays require customer DNA to validate and optimise, for guaranteed performance. Unvalidated assays are designed in silico and supplied untested.

REQUIRED COMPONENTS

• qPCR machine or Thermocycler + Fluorescent plate reader
• PCR plate or equivalent and appropriate optically clear seal
• Template DNA
• PCR-grade water
• PACE Genotyping Master Mix or PACE 2.0 Genotyping Master Mix

STEPS TO YOUR PACE GENOTYPING ASSAY DESIGN

1. Place your order on this page. Our support team will contact you by email.
2. Fill out an Assay Design Template form with all the information we need to process your custom PACE Genotyping Assay order. We will email you a copy of the template when we first contact you, or your can download a copy here.
3. Email your completed Assay Design Template to [email protected]
4. Using the information you provide us, we will create your PACE Genotyping Assay designs, order the oligos, and send you design sequences.
5. Once we receive the oligos, we assemble the assay(s) and then ship an aliquot to you (unvalidated) or test on your DNA samples before shipping the aliquot to you (validated).

Introduction

This product is specially designed for stool RNA extraction. The kit is suitable for extracting high-purity microbial or host cell RNA from ≤ 0.15g stool samples. The purified RNA can be directly used in RT-PCR and Northern hybridization.

Details

Principle

The Kit combines the speed and efficiency of silica-based technology with the convenient handling of magnetic particles for purification of total RNA. Samples are lysed and RNA is purified from lysates in one step through its binding to the silica surface of the particles in the presence of a chaotropic salt. The particles are separated from the lysates using a magnet and DNA is removed by treatment with RNase-free DNase. The magnetic particles are efficiently washed, and RNA is eluted in RNase-free water.

Storage and Stability

MagPure RNA Particles should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. DNase I should be stored at -20°C. However, short-term storage (DNase I up to 1 weeks, MagPure RNA Particles up to 8 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.

Overview

• Detection kits for Malaria
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease and considered one of the leading causes of death in the world. Malaria is a fatal tropical disease that is caused by a parasite knows as Plasmodium. It is usually spread through the bite of an infected female mosquito. 300-500 million new infected cases are estimated every year with 1.5-2.7 million deaths worldwide. Most of the malaria-related deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. . Although blood is the sample most frequently used to make a diagnosis, both saliva and urine have been investigated as alternative, less invasive specimens

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.

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.
