The ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase is designed for amplifying targeted DNA directly from whole blood, eliminating the need for a lengthy DNA isolation process. ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase is highly tolerant in the presence of PCR interfering/ inhibiting substances in blood, such as IgG, hemoglobin, and lactoferrin. ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase is compatible with most anticoagulants, such as citrate, EDTA, and heparin (Fig. 1). The ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase includes a pair of Positive Control Primers (CCR5) that are compatible with primate blood samples.

MutS Homolog 2 (MSH2) is a protein involved in the mismatch-repair pathway. This protein is commonly associated with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, and mutations in this gene are correlated with the development of sporadic colorectal carcinoma. Expression levels of MSH2 are abnormally low in a high percentage of patients with microsatellite instability, as well as endometrial and ovarian cancers. Use of Anti-MSH2 is optimized when paired in an IHC panel with antibodies against MSH6, MLH1, and PMS2. Reports have shown Anti-MSH2 to be useful in the detection of the protein in a number of normal and neoplastic tissues, and for identifying a loss of MSH2 in tumors that are microsatellite-unstable.
Nucleic acid testing (NAT) is the method of choice for detection and quantification of a wide range of micro organisms. Primerdesign manufactures and supplies high quality quantitative real-time PCR kits for the detection and simultaneous quantification of numerous significant pathogens . A copy number standard curve is provided for quantification and an the internal extraction template (DNA or RNA), controls for the quality of the nucleic acid extraction and eliminates false negative results.
The kit is designed with the broadest possible detection profile to ensure that all clinically relevant strains and subtypes are detected. Target sequences are selected by working with data from key opinion leaders in the field. Multiple sequence alignments and unprecedented real-time PCR expertise in design and validation ensure the best possible kit.
Details of the target and priming specificity are included in the individual handbooks above.
Packaged, optimised and ready to use. Expect Better Data.

Norgen’s Trichomonas vaginalis End-Point PCR Kit is designed for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis specific DNA based on the use of end-point PCR technology. This kit is designed for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures. The kit includes Master Mix and primers for the specific amplification of a 335 nucleotide region of the Trichomonas vaginalis genome, as well as a positive control and a negative control to confirm the integrity of the kit reagents. In addition, the kit contains loading dye and a DNA ladder to facilitate analysis of the results.
The detection of Trichomonas vaginalis specific DNA is based on end-point PCR technology, utilizing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the amplification of specific Trichomonas vaginalis DNA sequences. For analysis of the PCR data, the PCR reaction is loaded on an agarose DNA gel along with the provided DNA ladder for qualitative analysis.
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. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.
