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.

Overview
High yield and high purity DNA ready for any application
Available in a variety of formats to properly suit your needs
Compatible with blood collected on a variety of commercially available tubes
These kits allow for the isolation of DNA from the blood of various species, including humans and will recover genomic DNA, mitochondrial DNA, viral DNA and bacterial DNA. The purified DNA is of excellent quality and yield and completely compatible with any downstream application including PCR, qPCR and genotyping.
Blood DNA Isolation Mini Kit
Norgen’s Blood DNA Isolation Mini Kit is designed for the rapid preparation of DNA from up to 200 µL of whole blood using a rapid spin column protocol. Preparation time for a single sample is less than 30 minutes and each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Blood DNA Isolation Midi Kit
Norgen’s Blood DNA Isolation Kit is designed for the rapid spin column preparation of DNA from 0.3 to 2 mL volumes of whole blood. Preparation time for a single sample is less than 30 minutes, and each kit contains sufficient materials for 20 preparations.
Blood DNA Isolation Maxi Kit
This kit is designed for the rapid preparation of DNA from 3 mL up to 10 mL of whole blood. Preparation time for a single sample is less than 30 minutes.
Blood DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput)
This kit provides a rapid method for the high-throughput isolation of DNA from up to 200 µL of whole blood. Fast and easy processing using either a vacuum manifold or centrifugation.
Blood DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System)
Norgen’s Blood DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System) is designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from up to 200 µL of whole blood from various species, including human. Purification is based on magnetic beads as the separation matrix. Norgen’s magnetic beads bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and releases the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. The genomic DNA is preferentially purified from other cellular proteinaceous components. Typical yields of genomic DNA will vary depending on the cell density of the blood sample. The purified genomic DNA is fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested, and is completely compatible with downstream applications including real-time PCR, NGS and microarray analysis.
Blood DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput Magnetic Bead System)
96-well format for high throughput applications. Purification with the 96-well plates can be integrated with a robotic automation system.
*Yield will vary depending on the type of blood processed
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 1 year after the date of shipment. The kit contains a ready-to-use Proteinase K, which is dissolved in a specially prepared storage buffer. The buffered Proteinase K is stable for up to 1 year after the date of shipment when stored at room temperature.
The dsDNA Quantification Broad Range Kit and dsDNA Quantification High Sensitivity Kit are developed for double stranded DNA quantification using microplate readers. The DNA Quantification BR kit includes BR Dye, BR Dilution Buffer, and BR DNA Standards. The DNA Quantification HS kit includes HS Dye, HS Dilution Buffer, and HS DNA Standards. Simply dilute the Dye with the Dilution Buffer, add DNA sample, then read the concentration using microplate reader. The BR assay is accurate in the linear range from 4 to 1000 ng and the HS assay is accurate in the linear range from 0.2 to 100 ng. Both kits are highly selective for double-stranded DNA over RNA.
The Quantification Kits have several advantages over traditional DNA quantitation such as sensitivity, stability, and tolerance of contaminants.
Both kits reduce the cost of DNA quantification by 60% as compared to other brands.
Selectivity and sensitivity of the kits
Save 60% of the costs.
The performance of the kit is nearly identical to that of Thermo Fisher’s kit (figure below).

Common contaminants such as salts, free nucleotides, solvents, detergents, RNA, single stranded DNA, or protein are well tolerated in the assay (Table 1).
Mastitis is the single most costly disease of dairy cattle resulting in the reduction of milk yield and quality. The inflammation of the udder is mainly caused by infection of various bacteria. One of such mastitis bacteria, Streptococcus agalactiae, is highly infectious and causes mainly subclinical infections, which are not identified by the herdsman. As a result, S. agalactiae can spread widely within a herd, causing immediate loss due to reduced milk. S. agalactiae is a gram-positive bacteria belonging to the Group B streptococci. Traditional cultural identification of S. agalactiae is based on S. agalactiae being beta-hemolytic as well as presence of group B Lancefield antigen and by its ability to hydrolyze sodium hippurate.
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.
