Application: The LookOut® Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit utilizes the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is established as the method of choice for highest sensitivity in the detection of Mycoplasma, Acholeplasma, and Ureaplasma contamination in cell cultures and other cell culture derived biologicals. Kit has been successfully tested for the ability to amplify Mycoplasma fermentans genomic DNA in concentrations of 20,000 to 20 copies.
Components: Pre-coated test reaction tubes; Pre-coated positive control reaction tubes; Rehydratin Buffer; Cap for reaction tubes
Legal Information: LookOut is a registered trademark of Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC
Storage: 2-8°C
Biochem/physiol Actions: The reaction tubes included with the kit are pre-coated with appropriate dNTPs, primers, and loading dye. Total assay time is greatly reduced compared to general protocols that require individual loading of reaction tubes.
Empirical Formula (Hill Notation): C2H6O2S
