Product Name
CDFast Pathogen + IC Kits (100)
Product Description
The CDFast Pathogen +IC Kits are designed for sensitive and rapid real-time PCR or one-step RT-PCR detection of pathogen nucleic acids using sequence-specific probes. To enable high process safety through correct interpretation of negative detection results, each kit contains reagents for multiplex real-time detection of up to 4 user-defined pathogen targets (e.g., virus, bacteria, fungi etc.) plus the Internal Control (IC). Two kit formats are available: The CDFast Pathogen RT-PCR +IC Kit for detection of viral RNA, which contains an internal RNA control template, plus the Internal Control primer / probe set, or the CDFast Pathogen PCR +IC Kit for detection of viral, bacterial, or fungal DNA, which contains an internal DNA control template, plus the Internal Control primer / probe set. With both kits, ROX is supplied in 2 tubes of different concentrations, enabling use on virtually any real-time instrument. For convenience, the master mix can be stored at 2-8 °C.
Components
For 100 × 25 µL reactions: Master Mix, lyophilized Internal Control Assay, lyophilized Internal Control DNA, ROX Dye Solution, High-ROX Dye Solution, RNase-Free Water, Nucleic Acid Dilution Buffer, Buffer TE
Advantage / Highlights
• For sensitive and reliable detection of viral RNA / DNA and bacterial DNA, including internal control
• Simultaneous detection of pathogen target and internal control
• 5 × master mix for higher sensitivity with more sample input
• Correct interpretation of negative results for increased process safety
• Clear detection of weak positive target signals
• Fast, universal protocol on both standard and fast cyclers
Applications
CDFast Pathogen +IC Kits provide sensitive real-time PCR or one-step RT-PCR using sequence-specific probes for detection of pathogen DNA and / or RNA including an internal control. The kits can be used on a wide range of real-time cyclers, including cyclers from QIAGEN, Applied Biosystems, Bio-Rad, Roche (except for capillary cyclers), and Agilent.
