LyoBeads are ready-to-use, freeze-dried master mixes in shape of a small ball or spheres.
Standard LyoBeads contain DNA polymerase(s), reaction buffer and dNTPs. LyoBeads can also contain Primer & Probes when produced customized. They are rehydrated within seconds in any aqueous solutions, which makes reaction setup very simple. Only a biological sample has to be added.

LyoBeads are ready-to-use, freeze-dried master mixes in shape of a small ball or spheres.
Standard LyoBeads contain DNA polymerase(s), reaction buffer and dNTPs. LyoBeads can also contain Primer & Probes when produced customized. They are rehydrated within seconds in any aqueous solutions, which makes reaction setup very simple. Only a biological sample has to be added.
Storage: LyoBeads are shipped and stored simply at room-temperature. This provides a more cost efficient and ecological distribution compared to other master mixes.
LyoBeads can be pre-dispensed in PCR-strips, PCR-plates, cartridges etc.
All necessary components for PCR are already included in one LyoBead: an engineered DNA polymerase, an optimized reaction buffer and ultrapure dNTPs. Only primers and probes need to be added. A hot-start formulation of the included DNA polymerase prevents false amplification during the reaction set-up.

Product Info
DirectBlood Genotyping PCR Kit is a novelty on the market. It allows genotyping in real-time and without any previous DNA isolation. You simply save time and money: directly use EDTA blood without any extraction steps. The DirectBlood Genotyping PCR Kit is optimized to function with a wide range of different SNPs to detect possible nucleotide variations. It has been successfully tested with a variety of hydrolysis probes and hybridization probes.The setup of a genotyping experiment can not be simpler anymore: Mix primers&probes with the Genotying mastermix, add the respective blood sample and start real-time PCR, this is it.
It is even more simple: store the DirectBlood Genotyping PCR Kit at room-temperature. A cool chain is not needed anymore. The included master mix is freeze-dried and dissolves within a few seconds after addition of the rehydration buffer.Additionally, we have already established SNP-assays for you. In case, you can not find your respective SNPs, please provide us with the rs-number of the SNP-assays your are interested-in and you will receive an individual quotation from us.For research use and further manufacturing.In case you are aiming to use our RUO products as components or for your development of e.g. an IVD medical device, please contact us.
DirectBlood Genotyping Kit (#5000) performance with a hydrolysis probe assay
The DirectBlood Genotyping Kit is compatible with a wide range of assays: Here we are detecting a SNP in the Factor V gene (rs6025; G1691A), which is connected with a higher risk for venous thrombosis, with a fluorescent hydrolysis probe assay.
Homozygous wild type blood samples will show a strong signal and amplification plot (blue curve) in channel 2 (Cy5) and none or a very low signal
(red curve) in the other channel 1 (ROX).
Heterozygous blood samples will give an intermediate signal and amplification plots with very similar intensities in both channels 1 and 2 (blue and red curve). Homozygous mutant blood samples, channel 1 (ROX) will show a strong signal and amplification plot (red curve) and channel 2 (Cy5) none or a very low signal and amplification plot (blue curve). So the signals are reversed on homozygous mutant samples.
DirectBlood Genotyping Kit performance with a hybridization probe assay
Here we are detecting the same SNP in the Factor V gene (rs6025; G1691A), which is connected with a higher risk for venous thrombosis, with a fluorescent hybridization probe assay.
Three blood samples with known genotype were used. All the genotypes can clearly be identified. The blue curve shows the specific wild type (homozygous G;G) peak at 61°C. The red curve shows the specific mutant (homozygous A;A) peak at 53°C. A heterozygous case (A;G) will result in both melting curve peaks, respectively at the same specific temperature for wild type and mutant (orange curve).

These kits provide a fast, reliable and convenient method to purify and concentrate high quality, high purity and inhibitor-free cell-free circulating and exosomal RNA using a convenient spin column method. These kits can purify RNA from fresh or frozen serum or plasma samples prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate. Plasma samples prepared from blood collected on heparin should not be used, as heparin can significantly interfere with many downstream applications such as RT-PCR. The purified plasma/serum RNA is fully compatible with all downstream applications including PCR, qPCR, methylation-sensitive reverse transcription qPCR, reverse transcription PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, expression array assays, and NGS. The EXTRAClean columns undergo stringent processing and rigorous quality control measures to minimize contamination traces, ensuring optimal results for sensitive applications such as NGS.
Background
Cell-free circulating RNA, including exosomal RNA in plasma or serum, has the potential to provide biomarkers for certain cancers and disease states, and includes tumor-specific extracellular RNA in the blood. Exosomes are 40 – 100 nm membrane vesicles, which are secreted by most cell types. Exosomes can be found in saliva, blood, urine, amniotic fluid and malignant ascitic fluids, among other biological fluids. Evidence has been accumulating recently that these vesicles act as cellular messengers, conveying information to distant cells and tissues within the body. The exosomes contain cell-specific proteins, lipids and RNAs, which are transported to other cells, where they can alter function and/or physiology. These exosomes may play a functional role in mediating adaptive immune responses to infectious agents and tumours, tissue repair, neural communication and transfer of pathogenic proteins. Recent work has demonstrated the presence of distinct subsets of microRNAs within exosomes which depend upon the tumour cell type from which they are secreted. For this reason, exosomal RNAs may serve as biomarkers for various diseases including cancer. As the RNA molecules encapsulated within exosomes are protected from degradation by RNAses, they can be efficiently recovered from biological fluids, such as plasma or serum.
EXTRAClean Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Mini Kit
This kit can purify RNA from fresh or frozen serum or plasma samples prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate, from volumes ranging from 50 μL to 200 μL. The purified plasma/serum RNA is eluted in a flexible final volume of 10 μL to 25 μL.
EXTRAClean Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Midi Kit
This utilizes a two-column method, and can purify RNA from fresh or frozen serum or plasma samples prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate, from volumes ranging from 250 μL to 1.5 mL. The first column will handle the large volume input of bodily fluids that is followed by a concentration on a mini column for a final elution of 50 μL to 100 μL.
EXTRAClean Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Maxi Kit
This kit can purify RNA from fresh or frozen serum or plasma samples prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate, from volumes ranging from 2 mL to 5 mL. The first column will handle the large volume input of bodily fluids that is followed by a concentration on a mini column for a final elution of 50 μL to 100 μL.
