Microbial DNA qPCR Arrays
Microbial DNA qPCR Arrays are collections of assays to identify and profile microbial species, virulence factor genes or antibiotic resistance genes from a variety of sample types. Species identification assays target bacterial 16S rRNA genes and fungal ribosomal RNA genes, and each array includes controls for host DNA, presence of bacterial DNA and success of the PCR reaction. Microbial qPCR Mastermix is also included in the array kit. The simplicity of the product format and operating procedure allow routine, reliable identification or profiling of microbial species and genes from samples in any research laboratory with access to a real-time PCR instrument. What is the difference between microbial identification and profiling? Identification is determining the microbe’s presence or absence in your sample which requires running a No Template Control during your analysis. Profiling is determining the microbe’s relative expression in two or more experimental conditions for which you will need to run a reference sample and a normalizer (provided by QIAGEN).
Microbial DNA qPCR Assays
Microbial DNA qPCR Assays are a mix of two PCR primers (10 µM each) and one 5′-hydrolysis probe (5 µM) that enables quantitative real-time PCR for 100 reactions. Microbial DNA qPCR Assays are designed using a proprietary and experimentally verified algorithm, providing uniform PCR efficiency and amplification conditions. Each Microbial DNA qPCR Assay undergoes rigorous experimental verification to ensure high PCR efficiency, and this high efficiency is guaranteed when the assays are used with Microbial qPCR Mastermixes and Microbial DNA-Free Water (sold separately).
