All our HOT FIREPol® qPCR Mixes have been available also in 8 ml product size, however, due to reduced demand for this product size, combined with issues in the supply chain for these bottles, we have decided to discontinue 8 ml product sizes from January 1st, 2022.Instead, we will widen our range of 1 ml multipacks and offer 5-packs and 10-pack of every end-point and qPCR mix in our product range. 8 ml product sizes will be sold until the stock is empty. If there is no 8 ml size available in stock, we will offer a replacement in 1 ml or 20 ml sizes.
Lyophilization, also known as freeze-drying, is in simple terms a water-removal process that increases product stability and preserves its functionality. Our new SolisFAST® Lyo-Ready qPCR Kit with UNG represents an optimized lyophilization-compatible qPCR solution to enhance the simplicity, convenience, and speed of diagnostic and applied testing.
The running joke with PCR is that if something can go wrong, it will go wrong. Quite often it’s even impossible to determine why some samples turned out fine while the others did not. In a situation like this, it would be amazing to know some trick or a secret to avoid spending all the time and resources to do the experiment again. Here are a few we are willing to share so that you could find love for PCR.
In research, every day different methods are used to discover something new, whether it is a new disease, medicine, or something else. Often these methods were developed long ago and are confirmed to be doing what they are supposed to do. However, as technology develops so do new methods. This is exactly what Professor Steven Williams’ lab is doing at Smith College – developing new methods to be used in research and diagnostics.
As an alternative to PCR, the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) reaction has been developed for DNA detection. The LAMP test is fast, simple, and sensitive.
