Thermo Fisher, A50136, TaqMan™ Antibiotic Resistance Assay

Quantity: 250 μL
Unit Size: Each
• Assays are used for quantitative real-time PCR detection of microbial species and antibiotic resistance genes
• These assays consist of a pair of unlabeled PCR primers and a TaqMan probe with a dye label (FAM) on the 5’ end and a minor groove binder (MGB) and non-fluorescent quencher (NFQ) on the 3’ end
• All of our predesigned TaqMan gene expression assays are covered by the TaqMan Assays qPCR GuaranteeFeatures of TaqMan Antibiotic Resistance assays include:
• Easy to use - just add DNA and master mix and run the qPCR, no melt curves required
• Specific - TaqMan assays use proprietary MGB-containing probes that can be up to 15 bases shorter than non-MGB probes, improving the specificity of the assay
• Sensitive - TaqMan assays are ideal for measuring low-abundance microbial targets
• Accurate - identify microbial targets with high accuracy of quantitation
• Extensive content - over 300 pre-designed microbe detection assays and 100 pre-designed antibiotic resistance assays currently available
• Gold-standard TaqMan qPCR chemistry - TaqMan assays draw on Thermo Fisher Scientific's bioinformatics assay design pipeline to help ensure high specificity and minimal cross-reactivity
• Fast delivery - assays shipped in as little as 1–2 days (see below)
