Propargyl-PEG8-acid

Overview

• Detection kits for H5N1
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Influenza virus infection of birds, humans and other animals is a major public health problem worldwide. Influenza viruses are classified as either type A, B or C based on differences in their nucleoproteins and matrix proteins. The type A viruses are the most virulent human pathogens among the three influenza types and cause the most severe disease and epidemics. The different types can be further classified into subtypes based on antigenic differences in two surface glycoproteins; hemagglutinin and neuroamidase. All known subtypes of influenza A can be found in birds (H1-H16, N1-N9), while a limited number of the subtypes have been found in humans (H1-H3, N1 and N2). However, over the past few years, various subtypes of Influenza A viruses, including H5N1, have been reported to infect humans (WHO, 2006). In addition, the coexistence of human influenza viruses and avian influenza viruses may provide an opportunity for genetic material to be exchanged between these viruses. This could potentially create a new virulent influenza strain that is easily transmissible and lethal to humans (Food Safety Research Information Office, 2006). Thus, there is the need for sensitive diagnostic tests to allow for the rapid and early detection of these H5 influenza virus infections, to help reduce the risk of epidemics or pandemics in both animals and humans.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 1 year 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.

Overview

• CE-IVDR marked in accordance with the European Commission Regulation (EU) No. 2017/746.
• Ideal for use in in vitro workflows
• No need to immediately process samples
• Nucleic acid preservation at room temperature over 2 years for DNA and 7 days for RNA
• Ship stool samples at room temperature safely
• Compatible with most DNA/RNA isolation methods 

Norgen’s Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Devices Dx are designed for the collection and preservation of nucleic acids from fresh stool specimens. The Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Devices Dx – 50 contains 50 individual Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Devices Dx. Each Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Device Dx consists of Norgen’s Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Tube Dx containing Norgen’s Stool Preservative in a liquid format. The user simply collects stool into the tubes (fill up to the line indicated on the tube) and mixes gently until the stool is well submerged under the preservative. The Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Tube Dx is subsequently sent to the laboratory for DNA and/or RNA isolation and analysis. The stool DNA in preserved samples is stable for more than 2 years at room temperature, and the stool RNA in preserved samples is stable for 7 days at room temperature. DNA can be isolated from the preserved stool samples using Norgen’s Stool DNA Isolation Kit Dx (Cat. Dx27600) and RNA can be isolated from the preserved stool samples using Norgen’s Stool Total RNA Purification Kit Dx (Cat. Dx49500). These tubes are ideal for collecting and preserving DNA and RNA samples for in vitro diagnostic use for medical purposes.
