General description
The LookOut® Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit uses the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is established as the method of choice for the highest sensitivity in detecting Mycoplasma, Acholeplasma, and Ureaplasma contamination in cell cultures and other products. biological products derived from cell cultures.
The kit has been successfully tested for the ability to amplify Mycoplasma fermentans genomic DNA at concentrations of 20,000 to 20 copies. The reaction tubes included with the kit are precoated with appropriate dNTPs, primers, and loading dye. Total assay time is significantly reduced compared to general protocols that require individual loading of reaction tubes.
