The PureGenome™ High Efficiency Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Library Preparation Reagents are uniquely optimized as a one-stop solution for NGS Library Preparation. Validated for sequencing compatibility with Illumina® instruments; three sets of reagents are offered each having a unique functionality in the library preparation work flow. The PureGenome NGS Library DNA Modifier, when purchased with the PureGenome NGS Librar…

The quality of sequence obtained from Next Generation sequencing platforms such as Illumina, Inc. requires the accurate determination of input library DNA. Loading too much DNA can lead to overlapping clusters and loss of read counts whereas too little input can lead to poor read lengths and lower sequence output. The PureGenome™ NGS Library Validator Kit measures the absolute amount of adapter-ligated, sequence ready DNA in I…

The PureGenome™ On-Spot Tissue DNA kit allows for convenient isolation of genomic DNA in any targeted microscopic tissue area on a slide. The system combines a powerful area-specific tissue sampling technology with a one-step DNA extraction method and makes targeted tissue genomic DNA isolation easy and simple. The kit efficiently recovers genomic DNA from paraffin archives or fresh tissue sections for PCR analysis. Unlike a c…

The PureGenome™ Tissue DNA Extraction Kit is a simple procedure for the rapid isolation of total DNA (e.g. genomic, mitochondrial, parasitic, microbial, viral) from a variety of soft and solid tissues, cells and a range of biological liquids. This product has been optimized for maximal recovery of ultra-pure DNA without RNA contamination and is also compatible with buffy coat, bone marrow, cells from culture, whole blood (fres…

A sterile, closed, disposable system for sampling fluids from sterile and aseptic processes The unique NovaSeptum sampling system is ideal for general fluid and cell culture sampling from aseptic and sterile processes. Both systems can be configured for high purity or autoclavable sampling applications and as single or multiple sampling units. A wide range of holders and connectors are also available. •  Closed sampling elimin…

Pure recombinant high-fidelity DNA polymerase from Thermococcus kodakaraensis KOD1KOD HiFi DNA Polymerase* is a recombinant form of Thermococcus kodakaraensis KOD1 DNA polymerase. KOD HiFi is a high fidelity thermostable polymerase that amplifies target DNA up to 6 kbp in length with superior accuracy and yield. The enzyme’s 3′→5′ exonuclease-dependent proofreading activity results in a lower PCR mutation frequency than any ot…

High-performance enzyme blend for long and accurate PCRKOD XL DNA Polymerase* is an optimized blend of KOD HiFi DNA Polymerase and a mutant form of KOD HiFi that is deficient in 3′→5′ exonuclease activity. This enzyme mixture is designed for reliable amplification of long, complex targets with robust yield and high accuracy. It can also be used for incorporation of dITP, dUTP and derivatized dNTPs in PCR amplicons. KOD XL DNA…

GeneJuice® Transfection Reagent is a proprietary formulation optimized for maximal transfection efficiency, ease of use, and minimal cytotoxicity. This transfection reagent is a superior alternative to a wide variety of other techniques including calcium phosphate coprecipitation, electroporation, microinjection, biolistic particle delivery, and complex formation with DEAE-dextran. Whereas many available transfection reagents…

BugBuster® Master Mix combines BugBuster Protein Extraction Reagent with Benzonase® Nuclease and rLysozyme™ Solution in one convenient reagent. BugBuster Master Mix allows for maximum recovery of active soluble protein from both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. With the Master Mix, there is no need for dilution or separate addition steps. The two available package sizes provide sufficient reagents for protein extracti…
