Overview

• Detection kits for Cryptosporidium
• CE-IVD marked version available for in vitro diagnostic use
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Cryptosporidium is a parasite found in water that causes an infection in mammals termed cryptosporidiosis. It is one of the most common water-borne diseases and is found world-wide. It affects the intestines of mammals and typically causes an acute short-term infection. The most common symptom is self-limiting diarrhea in healthy individuals, however in immunocompromised individuals the symptoms are particularly severe and often fatal. There is no specific treatment for cryptosporidiosis other than fluid rehydration and management of any pain. Therefore early detection of Cryptosporidium in water is the foremost action to prevent the infection.

Introduction

This product provides a reliable solution for DNA isolation from yeast samples. Total DNA can be purified from yeast (<5x 10⁷) without phenol or chloroform. The whole extraction can be finished within 60 minutes. Purified DNA can be directly used for PCR, Southern blot, ect.

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

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 40 minutes (after digestion)
• High purity – purified DNA can be directly used in various downstream applications
• Good repeatability – silica technology can obtain ideal results every time
• High recovery – DNA can be recovered at the level of PG
• Sufficient components – lysozyme, protease K, RNase A and glass beads

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 dry at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. Buffer ATL may precipitate at low temperature. Dissolve it by 37℃ water bath.

This product provides a reliable solution for DNA isolation from yeast samples. Total DNA can be purified from yeast (

Overview

• Convenient – With the ready-to-use Master Mix, the user needs only to add template to the master mix and enzyme in order to set up the reverse transcriptase reaction
• Time Savings – Set up RT reactions in a shorter time since less pipetting steps are required
• Cost Efficient – No need to buy separate enzymes, dNTPs and buffers. All are included with the ready-to-use Master Mix kits
• High Sensitivity and Yield – the optimized Master Mix allows for highly sensitive amplifications with high yields of PCR products
• Robust Enzyme – broad range of working temperatures from 37°C to 60°C. Capable of amplifying difficult templates with a high degree of reproducibility

TruScript Reverse Transcriptase is Available in Three Convenient Formats:

1. TruScript Reverse Transcriptase Kit (Cat.#54440)

This kit contains 5X RT Buffer and a vial of TruScript Enzyme Mix (200 units/µL). This enzyme can be used for reverse-transcription reactions with any user-supplied primers.

2. TruScript First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Cat.#54420)

This is an all-in-one, ready-to-use product for simple set-up of reverse transcription of total RNA (both poly A- or non-poly A-containing transcripts).

The kit contains the 2x Reaction Mix and the TruScript Enzyme Mix. The 2x Reaction Mix contains a blend of buffer, nucleotides and primers (oligo dT and random hexamers) for effective cDNA synthesis from total RNA transcripts.

3. TruScript First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit for mRNA (Cat.#54400)

This is an all-in-one, ready-to-use product for simple set-up of reverse transcription of messenger RNA (poly A-containing transcripts).

The kit contains the 2x Reaction Mix and the TruScript Enzyme Mix. The 2x Reaction Mix contains a blend of buffer, nucleotides and oligo dT primer for the effective cDNA synthesis from total RNA transcripts or enriched mRNA sample.
