Detail
OverView
ArcticZymes’ Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase (SAP), including its recombinant version (rSAP), is the gold standard and the first heat-labile, all-purpose alkaline phosphatase on the market.
Originally isolated from Pandalus borealis (Arctic shrimp), it has been purified from a recombinant source since 2010. Unlike other alkaline phosphatases, rSAP can be fully inactivated by a short heat treatment of 15 minutes at 65°C.
This added convenience through complete heat inactivation has made SAP one of the most sold DNA modifying enzymes.
For added flexibility, especially when lyophilisation may be desired, rSAP is also available in a Glycerol FREE format. First launched in 1993, SAP’s unique features continue to make it a valuable tool in various applications.
Key Features
Gold standard heat labile, all-purpose alkaline phosphatase.
Completely inactivated after 5 min at 65°C or 1 min at 75°C.
Robust: Active in most restriction enzyme buffers, no need for supplemental zinc or other additives for activity.
Simple, hassle-free dephosphorylation of DNA, RNA, dNTPs and proteins for subsequent use in cloning or end-labelling of probes.
No vector purification necessary.
Easy inactivation of unincorporated dNTPs in PCR products prior to DNA sequencing or SNP analysis.
Ideal for MALDI-TOF, cloning, HLA typing, genotyping and sequencing.
Preparing substrate in protein kinase studies.

Cysticercosis is caused by larval cysts of the tapeworm Taenia solium and is a major cause of adult onset seizures in most developing countries. Diagnosis is based on imaging findings, but in many cases it is not conclusive for the diagnosis. Serological assays has an important place on the final diagnosis of the disease. The ELISA kit hs shown appropriate performances for the serological screening of cysticercosis.

This product is manufactured by Bordier Affinity Products in Switzerland and distributed in Germany exclusively by Milenia Biotec.
Method/Platform
ELISA in microplate format
Range/Assay Sensivity
98% sensitivity, 98% specificity
Test Principle
The kit provides all the material needed to perform 96 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) on breakable microtitration wells sensitized with Taenia solium cyst soluble antigens. Specific antibodies in the sample will bind to these antigens and washing will remove unspecific antibodies. The presence of parasite specific antibodies is detected with a Protein A – alkaline phosphatase conjugate. A second washing step will remove unbound conjugate. Revealing bound antibodies is made by the addition of pNPP substrate which turns yellow in the presence of alkaline phosphatase. Color intensity is proportional to the amount of Taenia solium specific antibodies in the sample. Potassium phosphate is added to stop the reaction. Absorbance at 405 nm is read using an ELISA microplate reader. The test can be performed with automatic systems, but this must be validated by the user.

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).
