Sensitive to < 100 copies of target
Positive copy number standard curve for quantification
Accurate controls to confirm findings
96 reactions, includes master mix
Our SNPsig® kits use our own proprietary genotyping method to enable the identification of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. These products can be used on any real-time PCR machine using familiar protocols, whilst resulting in exceptional genotyping data.
Positive control templates for wild-type and variants are supplied in every kit to make data interpretation simple.
Our SNPsig® technology provides an alternative to sequencing as well as S gene target failure (SGTF) that enables scientists to analyse and monitor these specific genomic mutations. Our kits can provide a pivotal role in screening for SARS-CoV-2 variants for the purpose of genomic surveillance and studies.
The ExcelTaq™ 5X Fluorescent PCR Master Mix is a ready-to-use mixture for amplifying targeted DNA fragments. It is designed to serve as a master mix for virtually all PCR applications. This product is supplied as a 5X concentrated mixture containing all the essential ingredients for PCR with the exception of templates and primers. In addition, the mixture contains electrophoresis tracking dye (Bromophenol blue) and a safer fluorescent DNA staining dye, which enables the user to track the electrophoresis process in real time as well as eliminates the need for the staining process. The resultant PCR reaction mixture is sufficiently dense enough to be loaded directly into a TAE or TBE buffered gel for electrophoresis.

Exceptional value for money
Rapid detection of 2019-nCoV
Positive copy number standard curve for quantification
Highly specific detection profile
High priming efficiency
Broad dynamic detection range (>6 logs)
Sensitive to < 100 copies of target
Accurate controls to confirm findings
Rapid isolation of both small and large species of DNA from urine
Convenient spin column format
Effective removal of PCR inhibitors
Purified DNA is highly suited to sensitive downstream applications
Allows for the purification of viral DNA from urine
Both high molecular weight DNA (greater than 1 kb in size; mostly cell associated) and the smaller DNA (150 – 250 bp; derived from the circulation) is effectively isolated and purified using a rapid and convenient spin column protocol. This kit can be used to isolate DNA from a broad range of viruses in urine as well. Salts, metabolic wastes, proteins and other contaminants are removed to yield inhibitor-free DNA for use in sensitive applications. The DNA is of excellent quality for various downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR and DNA fingerprinting, methylation studies and more.
This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 50 μL to 1.75 mL of urine. Multiple samples can be processed in 30 minutes.
Urine DNA Isolation Kit (Slurry Format)
This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 3 mL to 25 mL. Multiple samples can be processed in 30 minutes. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes.
Urine DNA Isolation Maxi Kit (Slurry Format)
This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 25 mL of urine up to 80 mL. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes.
Background
DNA found in urine can be divided into 2 basic categories. The larger species, genomic-DNA (gDNA), is generally greater than 1 kb in size, and appears to be derived mainly from exfoliated cells. The second species is smaller, generally between 150 and 250 bp (apoptotic-DNA), and derives, at least in part, from the circulation. The second species is also considered as an RNA/DNA hybrid as reported by Halicka et al. (2000). Both types of DNA can be isolated reliably using this kit.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All buffers should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. It is recommended to warm up Slurry B1 and Lysis Buffer A for 20 minutes at 60°C if any salt precipitation is observed. Slurry B1 contains a grey resin that will not dissolve when warmed.
