The kit is developed for RNA quantification. The RNA Quantification HS kit includes HS Dye, HS Dilution Buffer, and two RNA Standards. Simply dilute the HS Dye with the HS Dilution Buffer, add RNA sample, then read the concentration using the Qubit Fluorometer. The assay is accurate for RNA concentrations from 250 pg/µL to 100 ng/µL (Figure 1). The RNA Quantification High Sensitivity Kit has several advantages over traditional RNA quantitation such as stability, sensitivity, and contaminant tolerance.

Features
Optimized condition for using with the Qubit Fluorometer
Uses the Qubit RNA High Sensitivity assay setting
Cuts costs by 60%
The performance of the BioDynami RNA Quantification HS kit is nearly identical to that of Thermo Fisher’s Qubit RNA HS kit (figure below).
Common contaminants such as detergents, solvents, salts, free nucleotides, or protein are well tolerated in the assay (Table 1).

Overview
Detection kits for Cryptococcus neoformans
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Cryptococcus neoformans is an encapsulated yeast. Infection with C. neoformans is known as cryptococcosis and is the cause of the most common life-threatening meningitis in patients with weakened immune systems, particularly in advanced HIV/AIDS. C. neoformans is commonly found in soil throughout the world. Human infection of C. neoformans occurs via inhalation of aerosolized spores. From the lungs, C. neoformans is spread hematogenously to the Central Nervous System (CNS), resulting in meningoencephalitis. Although the availability of antiretroviral therapy in the developed world has reduced the incidents of cryptococcosis, it is still a major problem in developing countries and is one of the leading causes of death in patients with HIV/AIDS. In fact, one of the major challenges in treating cryptococcosis is that many patients with cryptococcal CNS disease are asymptomatic in terms of cryptococcal pneumonia, making it difficult for early detection.
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.
