RT2 qPCR Primer gDNA Controls
For detection of genomic DNA contamination in RNA and cDNA
Products
RT2 qPCR Primer gDNA Controls are intended for molecular biology applications. These products are not intended for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease.
Features
- Sensitive detection of non-transcribed genomic DNA
- For multiple species
- Compatible with RT² qPCR Primer Assays
Product Details
RT² qPCR Primer gDNA Controls specifically detect non-transcribed genomic DNA contamination with high sensitivity. RT² qPCR Primer gDNA Controls are available for human, mouse, rat, dog, and Rhesus macaque model systems. Each control vial contains sufficient primer for 200 PCR reactions.
Principle
RT² qPCR Primer gDNA Controls specifically detect a sequence of non-transcribed human, mouse, rat, dog, or Rhesus macaque genomic DNA with high sensitivity. This control helps to detect genomic DNA contamination in cDNA samples before characterization by SYBR® Green-based real-time PCR in order to prevent false-positive signals. RNA samples found to contain genomic DNA contamination may be treated with an appropriate source of RNAse-free DNAse and column purified before retesting with the RT² qPCR Primer gDNA Controls. Samples lacking genomic DNA contamination will provide accurate results in gene expression analysis.
