PRImeDETECT™ STEC PCR Detection Kit
PRImeDETECT™ STEC Detection Kit is an ideal tool for an specific, rapid, and reliable Amplification and Detection of the virulence-associated genes stx1, stx2 and eae by the real-time PCR method (Multiplex PCR).
The Kit includes all reagents required in a comfortable ready-to-use Multiplex PCR MasterMix. In addition, the kit includes both Positive Control and Negative Control. The Positive control is supplied to demonstrate that the PCR amplification is working efficiently with the supplied components. To confirm absence of contamination, a Negative control reaction should be included every time the kit is used. Include DNAready Lysis Buffer to extract the DNA from the sample prior to PCR Detection.
