Following adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated transduction, cellular RNA preparations can be contaminated with AAV single-stranded DNA. The single-stranded DNA genome of recombinant AAV vectors can ...

LUXEMBOURG--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The GSD NovaPrime® SARS-CoV-2 Direct RT-PCR is intended for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2 from human nasopharyngeal swabs, eluted directly into deionised water ...

The modular multiplex RT-PCR method simultaneously detects Shiga Toxin E. coli (STEC), Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes using a single, overnight enrichment (24 hours). Ready-to-use PCR ...

Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR or qPCR) is revolutionizing many aspects of molecular biology and becoming the gold standard for accurate, sensitive, and fast quantification of gene expression.

One of the best ways to figure out how far a virus like COVID-19 has spread in a community is to test for it. This step-by-step guide explains how coronavirus swab-the-nose-and-throat tests work, and ...

In this study, an optimized new, simple, low cost method for sampling of airborne viruses using Low Melting Agarose (LMA) plates and a conventional microbial air sampling device has been developed.

Currently established rapid methods for sterility testing of advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) are mostly based on growth-based processes or the detection of metabolic activities. However, ...

What is real-time quantitative PCR? qPCR uses one of two methods to detect the changes to DNA amplification: use of fluorescent dyes or sequence-specific DNA probes. qPCR is normally performed in a ...

PCR is a technique used to amplify target DNA in a sample. It’s a well-known method that has undergone numerous modifications to enhance its capabilities. This year, it’s turning 40 years old. PCR has ...
