Name of Product

Aspergillus Antigen
(Galactomannan) – Rapid Test

Catalog Number

ASP-025

Short Info

This Rapid Test is for the detection of specific Aspergillus Galactomannan Antigen in Serum or Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL).

This product is manufactured by GaDia Diagnostics in Switzerland and distributed in Germany exclusively by Milenia Biotec.

Method/Platform

Immunochromatographic Rapid Test

Range/Assay Sensivity

Test Principle

The principle of the test is colloidal gold immunochromatography. If the sample is positive, the antigens in the sample react with the red-colored nanoparticles and form a complex (Antigen – anti-Aspergillus monoclonal antibodies – gold nanoparticles), which was previously pre-dried on the conjugate pad. The mixture then moves upward on the membrane by capillary action. As the sample flows through the test membrane, the binding conjugate complexes migrate. The anti-Aspergillus antibodies present on the membrane (Test Line) capture the colored conjugate complex and a red line will appear.

Description 

The G-HiFi™ DNA Polymerase is a new genetically modified, recombinant DNA polymerase suitable for GC-rich templates that are difficult to amplify. The fidelity of G-HiFi™ DNA Polymerase is 70 times higher than that of Taq DNA polymerase. The high extension rate of G-HiFi™ DNA Polymerase is achieved by blending the DNA polymerase with an elongation enhancer. The optimized 5X G-HiFi™ Buffer includes special ingredients that suppress non-specific amplification as well as plateau effect produced by conventional PCR. With the optimized 5X G-HiFi™ Buffer, G-HiFi™ DNA Polymerase is capable to amplify most templates, such as longer targets (up to 40 kb from lambda DNA) and that contain GC-rich sequences. 

Features

• 5’→3’ DNA polymerase activity 
• 3’→5’ exonuclease (proofreading) activity
• Suitable for GC-rich templates 
• High reaction rate: 7 seconds/kb 
• High fidelity: 70 times higher than Taq polymerase 
• Generates blunt end amplicons  
• Vast elongation capability (up to 40 kb) 
• Thermo-stable for more than 10 hrs at 95°C 

Storage

Introduction

This product is suitable for rapid extraction of total DNA from tissue, cells, blood, saliva, swabs, blood spots, semen and other clinical samples. DNA can be used directly for PCR, quantitative PCR, Southern Blot, test of virus DNA and so on.

Specifications

Principle

This product is based on silica Column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mm Tris, pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).

Advantages

• High quality DNA – meet a variety of downstream applications, including PCR, qPCR, enzyme digestion, hybridization, etc.
• Fast – without separation of leukocytes, organic extraction or ethanol precipitation
• Simple – all nucleic acids can be obtained by direct digestion
• Wide applicability- handle a variety of liquid samples

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 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. The entire kit can be stored at 2-8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.
