PCR Mycoplasma Detection Kit

<p>The Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit offers high specificity and sensitivity to minimize false positives while ensuring coverage over 200 strains of <i>Mycoplasmas</i> for quick and reliable routine screening of cell cultures less than 2 hours. <i>Mycoplasmas</i> are highly undesirable, easily acquired and notorious for an elusive onset of infection. It can alter the infected cells at a molecular level leading to visible changes in cell morphology and growth characteristics. Timely detection of <i>Mycoplasmas</i> in cell cultures is recommended in order to deter wide-spread contamination and save on the costly efforts of elimination. The MasterMix contains gel loading dye, making it convenient to load for gel electrophoresis.</p>
