Screening of saxitoxin in Freshwater Streams and Source Water samples as low as 70 ppt
Saxitoxins (STXs) are naturally occurring alkaloids produced by some marine dinoflagellates and by strains of various species of freshwater cyanobacteria. Saxitoxin is one of the prevalent paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs). It belongs to a family of potent neurotoxins with a molecular weight around 300 Da. Saxitoxin and its derivatives are alkaloids composed of a tetrahydropurine ring system with a highly polar guanidinium group. Due to their significant toxicity, saxitoxins are closely monitored in marine environments where they can accumulate during harmful algal blooms (HABs). In 2009 an action level of 0.6ppb (600ppt) was recommended by EFSA as a guidance framework have been established to manage saxitoxin levels in water.
As this is a 2 gene kit, we recommend purchase of 2 of the accompanying RT-qPCR master mix reagent: oasig Lyophilised OneStep RT-qPCR Master Mix 150 reactions.
Norovirus is known to cause acute gastroenteritis. It is a small (27-38 nm), round, nonenveloped RNA virus belonging to the Caliciviridae family and is responsible for over 80% of non-bacterial outbreaks of gastroenteritis in the world. It affects individuals of all ages, with a distinct seasonal link to winter. It has a genome of 7.6 kb that is positive sense and has a single stranded linear confirmation. It encodes a major structural protein (VP1) of about 58 to 60 kDa and a minor capsid protein (VP2). Transmission occurs predominantly through ingestion of contaminated water, food and airborne transmission, as well as contact with contaminated surfaces. The ease with which norovirus is transmitted and the low infectious dose required to establish an infection results in extensive outbreaks in numerous environments, such as hospitals, hotels and schools. There is no antiviral drug available to treat this infection and little is known about its pathogenicity. However, it has been observed that the virus can be taken up by enterocytes where translation of viral nonstructural proteins can occur; it damages and alters intestinal microvilli, leaving them blunt and broadened, thus inhibiting absorption; it causes crypt cell hyperplasia and also leads to apoptosis of enterocyctes. An incubation period of 24-48 hours is usual. Infection is characterized by the acute onset of nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, aching limbs, raised temperature and diarrhoea that generally last for about 48 hours. However, more severe and prolonged infection may be observed in children and the elderly. There are five recognized norovirus genogroups, of which three (GI, GII, and GIV) are known to affect humans and, since 2002, variants of the GII.4 genotype have been the most common cause of norovirus outbreaks. There have been 31 different genotypes identified within the genogroups, with a wide degree of genetic variability present even within each genotype.

Isothermal nucleic acid Principle Summary
This kit is based on a rapid nucleic acid amplification technology at room temperature and constant temperature:at room temperature and constant temperature(generally 39℃~42℃),reverse transcriptaseuses specific primers and template RNA tosynthesize cDNA strands,and binds the auxiliary protein and single strand with the help of the protein, the recombinase and the primer form a complex; perform a homology search and bind the target homology domain, at this time a D-loop region is formed at the homology positionand strand exchange begins; accompanied by the recombinase from the complex upon dissociation,the polymerase also bindsto the 3′ end of the primer,initiating chainextension.It is suitable for laboratory-level RNA amplification and RNA amplification for other detection purposes.

Aminooxy-PEG4-propargyl is a aldehyde reactive crosslinker. The aminooxy group reacts with an aldehyde or ketone group to form a stable oxime linkage. The propargyl group is reactive with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules via copper catalyzed azide-alkyne Click Chemistry to yield a stable triazole linkage. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries. Aminooxy compounds are very reactive and sensitive; they cannot be stored for long term. Immediate use (within 1 week) is highly recommended.
