The Real-Time PCR screening kit is addressing three different targets: 35S promoter; NOS Terminator; CTP2-CP4 EPSPS. The tests are all in accordance with the JRC guideline. Advantage of the CTP2-CP4 EPSPS compared to FMV detection is that the used target includes artificial sequences, which are not present naturally like the virus sequence of FMV.

Cronobacter sakazakii (formerly Enterobacter sakazakii) is found naturally in the environment and can survive in dry conditions. It occurs in dry foods, such as powdered infant formula, milk powder and starches as well as in teas. Especially young infants are at high risk developing severe meningitis, if infected. All common Real-Time PCR block cyclers are usable for the test. Each reactions contains an internal amplification control. Therefore, false negative results due to inhibition of the reaction can be excluded. The test included the UNG enzyme to prevent re-amplification of contaminating amplicons. The test can also be used for the confirmation of bacterial colonies. The Real-Time PCR Test allows the detection of the species with high accuracy and is more precise than, cultural methods often are.

Successful PCR applications depend on well purified DNA. In diagnostics and analytics of food and medical samples PCR and real-time PCR has many advantages over conventional methods. In all cases it is of importance to have well purified DNA for subsequent PCR, real-time PCR, hybridization or sequencing purposes. Purified DNA leads to higher sensitivity and also specificity of PCR based tests in difficult matrices. With QuickBlue Extraction and Purification Kit you always get high DNA yields and highly purified DNA. The kit uses paramagnetic nano-particles for purification. It can help to purify DNA from difficult matrices like food or even blood in soil for applications in forensic sciences. DNA in Seawater can also be purified. This method avoids extensive centrifugation steps and can thus be applied in environments where centrifuges are not usable. The kits includes proteinase K as a reagent for cell disruption, so that extraction and purification can be performed with the kit. DNA yield from 1 ml bacterial enrichment is 10 μg of Genomic DNA. The protocol can be adapted to automated magnetic bead separation instruments.
