PCR mycoplasma test kit
Ready to use PCR mix for the detection of mycoplasma in cell culture.

The PCR Mycoplasma Test Kit is designed to detect the presence of mycoplasma contamination in biological materials, such as cultured cells. Mycoplasma detection by the direct culture procedure is time-consuming and some mycoplasma species are difficult to cultivate. With PCR testing, results are obtained within a few hours, since the presence of contaminant mycoplasma can be easily detected simply by verifying the bands of amplified DNA fragments in electrophoresis. There is no need to prepare probes labelled with radioisotopes, or to calculate enzyme, dNTPs or buffer concentrations. Instead, a ready-to-use, optimised PCR mix is supplied. The primer set allows detection of various mycoplasma species (M. fermentans, M. hyorhinis, M. arginini, M. orale, M. salivarium, M. hominis, M. pulmonis, M. arthridtidis, M. bovis, M. pneumoniae, M. pirum, M. capricolum) as well as Acholeplasma and Spiroplasma species, with high sensitivity and specificity.

Delivery information: Kit contains reaction mix (including PCR primer nucleotide mix and HotStart Taq polymerase), reaction buffer solution and positive template control.
