PR1MA™ Mammalian Genotyping Kit

• DNA extraction and amplification in 1 hour
• Proprietary lysis buffer optimized for ear punches, tail snips and other mammalian tissues
• Single tube - no organic solvents or clean up procedures
• Enhanced PR1MA Hot Start Polymerase included

Traditionally, mammalian genotyping protocols have involved Proteinase K digestion, neutralization, organic extraction and lots of hands on time to get PCR-ready DNA.

The PR1MA Mammalian Genotyping Kit is quick and easy to use - add sample to the proprietary lysis buffer and incubate for 5-10 minutes, then add the deactivation buffer and incubate for 10 minutes. The crude lysate can then be amplified using fast PCR PR1MA Hot Start Taq Master Mix with red loading dye (included). The kit contains everything needed - just add sample and primers.

Accuris E3200 UV Transilluminator

Accuris UV Transilluminators feature space-saving designs, to fit perfectly in any busy laboratory. Three models are available, with a range of intensity settings and viewing surface sizes. Choose your model depending on your application and the size or number of gels to analyze. 

The E3200 offers a large viewing surface of 21 x 26 cm to accommodate larger gels or multiple small gels. High powered, 14W UV bulbs provide higher sensitivity, so the smallest bands of stained nucleic acids can be visualized. The E3200 also features a control knob for continuous adjustment of the UV intensity.

All Accuris UV Transilluminators incorporate scratch-resistant, UV filter glass. Peak output emission of 302 nm is ideal for excitation of gels stained with Ethidium Bromide, SmartGlow, SYBR Green and other common gel stains.

Acrylic UV blocking covers allow safe viewing of samples, and friction hinges on the front edge allow positioning of the cover at an angle for gel access.

• High purity enzyme formulation for enhanced stability and performance
• Accuris Hot-Start Taq allows for preparation at room-temperature
• Blue dye facilitates pipetting and visualization in plates
• Available for green fluorescence or probe detection
• Multiplex formulation available for multiple target amplification

Accuris qMAX™ One Step Kits allow for highly sensitive real time RT-qPCR assays to be performed directly from RNA templates. Workflows are simplified with optimized formulations of ready-to-use 2X qPCR master mix and 20X reverse transcriptase.

Optimized buffer includes powerful RNase inhibitors, and an extremely thermostable MMLV-derived reverse transcriptase enables robust first strand cDNA synthesis. Accuris Hot Start Taq uses an antibody mediated hot start mechanism allowing for sample preparation at room temperature. Only after an initial incubation at 95C will the Taq become active, so non-specific amplification is greatly reduced. An inert blue dye is included in the Taq master mix to help simplify pipetting and reduce errors.

Three versions of our One Step qPCR kits are available:

qMAX Green One Step kits incorporate our proprietary intercalating dye which exhibits higher fluorescent and lower PCR inhibition than other popular dyes such as SYBR.

qMAX Probe One Step kits are optimized for use with popular TaqMan, Scorpions, and molecular beacon probes.

qMAX Probe One Step Multiplex kits are specifically developed and optimized for efficient probe-based detection of multiple targets in a single reaction well. The Multiplex formulation is comprised of a 20x reverse transcriptase and 2x PCR Mix preparation ideally suited for complex RNA samples including low-copy number viral RNA commonly used in the clinical and research laboratory. qMAX Probe One Step Multiplex kits have been designed to overcome the many challenges of multiplex RT-PCR, by addressing important factors such as the balance between magnesium chloride and deoxynucleotide concentrations, the relative Taq Polymerase and reverse transcriptase concentration, and the ionic conditions of the core reaction buffer.

All Accuris One-Step Kits are compatible with standard and fast cycling protocols and provide increased sensitivity, speed, and reproducibility for a broad range of samples and targets. The polymerase mix is available with different levels of ROX reference dye for compatibility with all qPCR instruments.
