e-Myco¢â plus Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit greatly simplify testing and detection
of Mycoplasma contamination in cell cultures. With PCR testing, reliable results are
obtained within a few hours, since the presence of contaminant Mycoplasmas can be
easily and sensitively detected by simply verifying the bands of amplified DNA
fragments after gel electrophoresis. The e-Myco¢â plus Mycoplasma PCR Detection
has been shown to be a highly sensitive, specific and rapid method for the detection
of Mycoplasmas contamination in cell cultures.
An internal control of this product was constructed to identify false negative results in
each reaction. The internal control was designed in such a way that the primers set
was used to amplify the internal control and target DNA, which were differentiated by
size. Furthermore, the sample control was provided with this kit for using in verifying
the effectiveness of template DNA. So, You may easily check your sample
preparation. In addition, the use of 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) was adopted in this
kit. 8-MOP is known to intercalate into double-stranded nucleic acids and form a
covalent inter-strand crosslink after photo-activation by incident light at wavelength
320-400 nm, so it is helpful to prevent cross-contamination by PCR products from
earlier experiments
