QIAcuity Mycoplasma Quant Kit and Standards
The QIAcuity Mycoplasma Quant Kit reliably detects and quantifies the presence of mycoplasma rRNA in various sample types. Combined with a recommended sample prep method, we offer a NAT (Nucleic Acid Technique) workflow for mycoplasma testing that is compliant with the European, US and Japanese Pharmacopeia. The robust process eliminates time-consuming cultivation of mycoplasma. The workflow is particularly suited to sample types of varying purity (for example, cell bank samples, in-process samples, such as virus harvest and final lots/batches).
The QIAcuity Mycoplasma Quant Kit provides a consistent, accurate, precise and highly reproducible detection of mycoplasma presence. The detection via rRNA enables a higher sensitivity than using DNA because of the multiple copies present in a single bacterial cell. The assay is still able to detect DNA if the RT-step is skipped, enabling a high degree of flexibility.
The kit is compatible with the QIAcuity Digital PCR System and the QIAcuity Nanoplates.
