PR1MA™ SmartGlow™ DNA Safe Stain

• Replaces hazardous Ethidium Bromide (EtBr)
• Better sensitivity than EtBr
• Detect as little as 0.1ng of DNA
• Two types available
• PS Pre Stain
• LD Loading Dye
• Excitation by UV light or blue light
• Compatible with Accuris SmartBlue™ Transilluminator
• Ships at ambient temperature (stored at 4°C)

PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS (Pre-Stain) can be used as a direct replacement for Ethidium Bromide in agarose and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The stain emits green fluorescence when bound to dsDNA or ssDNA and emits red fluorescence when bound to RNA. PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS exhibits excitation peaks at 290 nm and 490 nm, allowing it to be used with UV and blue light.

Protocol:

• Prepare 100 mL of agarose or polyacrylamide solution.
• Add 5 uL of PR1MA™ SmartStain™ to the gel solution before pouring gels.
• For enhanced results, add PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS to the running buffer at a ratio of 5 uL per 100 mL. Adding PR1MA™ SmartStain™ PS to the running buffer will result in increased sensitivity and better detection of small quantities of nucleic acid.
• After electrophoresis is complete, view the gel using a UV or blue light illuminator

• Convenient cDNA synthesis and PCR in a single tube from 1 pg total RNA
• Formulated for highly specific and sensitive RT-PCR from any RNA templates
• Incorporates thermostable reverse transcriptase and Hot-Start Taq for preparation at room temperature

The PR1MA™ One-Step RT-PCR Kit has been formulated for cDNA synthesis and subsequent PCR in a single tube for end-point analysis. This latest generation RT-PCR Kit consists of an MMLV-derived, thermostable Reverse Transcriptase (45°C to 55°C), an advanced RNase Inhibitor and PR1MA™ Hot Start Taq for ultra-sensitive one-step RT-PCR from as little as 1pg total RNA starting material.

The optimized buffer chemistry allows for efficient reverse transcription and PCR of problematic sequences with significant secondary structure (such as GC-rich targets). The PR1MA One-Step RT-PCR Kit is ideal for determining the presence or absence of RNA templates and quantifying expression through qualitative analysis of RNA transcription levels. The kit also efficiently synthesizes double-stranded cDNA for subsequent gene expression analysis.

PR1MA™ qMAX™ cDNA Synthesis Kits

PR1MA™ now offers two cDNA Synthesis Kits, to meet a range of requirements.
 
The original cDNA Synthesis Kit is a 2-tube format for easy reaction setup and is ideal for 4 pg to 0.5 µg of input RNA. One tube includes our exceptionally stable Reverse Transcriptase combined with a potent RNAse inhibitor, and the other tube contains a 5X reaction buffer with an optimal mixture of anchored oligo (dT) primers and random hexamers to produce a non-biased population of cDNA. 
 
The 1st Strand cDNA Synthesis Flex Kit includes four components: a high-capacity Reverse Transcriptase, an optimized 5X buffer, separate solutions of oligo (dT) primers, and random hexamer primers. This multi-component format is ideal for 10 pg to 2.0 µg of input RNA and allows for greater flexibility in assay design.

PR1MA™ dNTPs

• Supplied as a ready-to-use 40 mM mix or a set of 4 separate 100 mM solutions
• Free of impurities and inhibitors that reduce sensitivity and yield
• No nuclease, protease or nickase activity
• >99% pure, purified by HPLC
• 24-month shelf life

PR1MA™ dNTP's are purified by HPLC in a strict process that results in greater than 99% purity. The stringent purification process eliminates PCR inhibitors such as tetraphosphates and pyrophosphates that can interfere with the sensitivity of your PCR and reduce yields.
The 40 mM dNTP Mix is a single tube that contains premixed dNTPs at a concentration of 10 mM each. The 100 mM dNTP Set contains four individual tubes, one each of dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP. The nucleotides are supplied in ultra-pure water as an ammonium salt. Both the set and mix are stable for 24 months when stored at -20ºC.

Extensive quality control testing is performed to ensure the dNTPs are free of nuclease, protease and nickase activity. Each lot is performance tested in standard PCR, long PCR and qPCR reactions to assess reproducibility and sensitivity.

PR1MA™ RNase Inhibitor

PR1MA™ RNase Inhibitor (RI) is a 50 kDa protein that specifically inhibits RNases A, B, and C by binding noncovalently in a 1:1 ratio at high affinity. It can be used in isothermal amplification and molecular diagnostic assays, cDNA synthesis, and other applications where RNA stability is important. It is ineffective against RNase1, T1, S1 Nuclease, or RNase H. It has no inhibition of polymerase activity when used with Taq DNA polymerase, AMV, M-MuLV, HIV reverse transcriptases, or phage RNA polymerases.

Storage Buffer

• 10 mM Tris-HCl
• 50 mM KCl
• 8 mM DTT
• pH = 7.5 

*To prevent the release of ribonuclease from RNase Inhibitor, temperatures greater than 50°C and high concentrations of denaturing reagents such as urea should be avoided.

PR1MA™ β - Agarase

PR1MA™ β - Agarase has a high tolerance to inhibitors in electrophoretic buffers such as TBE and TAE, eliminating the need to perform a buffer exchange step before digestion. PR1MA™ β - Agarase has higher thermal stability than other commercially available β - agarases, with a broad range of activity between 42°C and 50°C. Higher temperature digestion reduces the chances of residual agarose gelling at the end of the reaction, resulting in higher recovery of DNA or RNA.

Benefits

• Complete digestion of agarose, with no agarose fragments, left after the digestion
• Obtain DNA or RNA faster - no buffer exchange needed, with direct digestion in TAE or TBE
• Concentration: 1000 u / mL
• Operating temperature: 42°C to 50°C
• Recommended temperature: 50°C
• Storage temperature: -20°C 

Storage Buffer

• 50% glycerol
• 50 mM Tris-HCI
• 50 mM KCI
• 1 mM DTT
• 0.1  mM EDTA
• pH = 7.5 

*These products are intended for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes in humans or animals. The safety and efficacy of these products in diagnostic or other clinical uses has not been established.
