genesig Real-Time PCR Multiplex Detection Kit for Dengue, Zika and Chikungunya Virus, Standard

The genesig(R) Dengue, Zika and Chikungunya Virus Multiplex kit is designed for the detection and differentiation of Dengue virus, Zika virus (ZIKV) and Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) only. Individual tests have been designed in the conserved regions of each virus such that all isolates and subtypes will be detected simultaneously in the same test. The Dengue component of the test will detect subtypes 1, 2, 3 and 4 but will not differentiate between them. A positive Dengue test results indicates that the sample has either one of these four subtypes. The primers and probe sequences in this kit have 100% homology with a broad range of clinically relevant reference sequences based on a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis. They therefore have a very broad quantification profile. , genesig Standard kit:, Product features:,  Exceptional value for money,  Rapid detection of all clinically relevant subtypes,  Positive copy no. 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, STANDARD KIT COMPONENTS: Multiplex primer/probe mix (100 reactions) - Reads through FAM, VIC, CY5 and ROX channels , Endogenous control primer/probe mix (150 reactions) - Reads through FAM channel , Multiplex positive control template (Dengue, Chikungunya virus and Zika virus) , Internal control RNA template , Oasig Onestep mastermix, Oasig Onestep resuspension buffer, RNAse/DNAse free water, REAGENTS AND EQUIPMENT TO BE SUPPLIED BY THE USER: Real-Time PCR Instrument, RNA extraction kit, This kit is recommended for use with genesig EASY DNA/RNA Extraction kit. However, it is designed to work well with all processes that yield high quality RNA with minimal PCR inhibitors., Pipettes and Tips Vortex and Centrifuge 1.5ml tubes, KIT STORAGE AND STABILITY: This kit is stable at room temperature but should be stored at --20°C on arrival. We do not recommend using the kit after the expiry date stated on the pack. Once the lyophilized components have been re-suspended, unnecessary repeated freeze/thawing should be avoided. The kit is stable for six months from the date of resuspension under these circumstances. SUITABLE SAMPLE MATERIAL: All kinds of sample material suited for PCR amplification can be used. Please ensure the samples are suitable in terms of purity, concentration, and RNA/DNA integrity. Always run at least one negative control with the samples. To prepare a negative-control, replace the template RNA sample with RNAse/DNAse free water. DYNAMIC RANGE OF TEST: Under optimal PCR conditions genesig(R) kits have very high priming efficiencies of >90% and can detect between 1X10e8 and 1X10e2 copies of target template. INSTRUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS: Designed for use in other instruments. For use in genesig(R) q16, look for the "Easy" nomenclature. , Note: This kit is currently being offered under "Standard" format only. ABOUT THE genesig(R) KITS: genesig(R) kits are sold for research use only and are not licensed for diagnostic procedures. 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, optimized and ready to use. DNA/RNA Extraction: genesig(R) Easy DNA/RNA extraction kits are a simple to use, low cost and powerful extraction technology suitable for virtually all sample types.
