Please contact your local representative. Unit of measure is "piece" MycoTOOL, Mycoplasma Detection Amp kit 05184240001 Not Available Reagents, kits en Mycoplasmas can act as severe contaminants in cell culture. Mycoplasmal cell culture contamination occurs due to contamination from individuals or contaminated cell culture medium ingredients. Mycoplasmas may induce cellular changes, including chromosome aberrations, changes in metabolism and cell growth. Severe mycoplasma infections may destroy a cell line. en Testing of cell culture samples for the absence of mycoplasma. en The MycoTOOL Mycoplasma Detection Amplification Kit is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification test optimized for the detection of mycoplasma in CHO cell culture according to the Guideline for Mycoplasma NAT described in chapter 2.6.7 of the European Pharmacopeia with respect to specificity, sensitivity/detection limit, and robustness.In combination with this kit, a manual sample preparation with the QC Sample Preparation Kit is recommended. A sample preparation protocol with the QC Sample Preparation Kit for cell culture sample with a density of <5 x 106 cells/ml and a protocol for high cell density is available in the instructions for use (method sheet) on Roche portal eLabDoc. en Sensitive control (10 CFU/mL A. laidlawii): For at least 2/4 replicates a band at 450 bp must be recognized.Negative control of the whole workflow (mycoplasma): For at least 5/6 replicates no band between 420 and 480 bp is recognized.Positive control of the whole workflow (GAPDH): For each sample a band at 150 bp is recognized.Negative control of the PCR (Mycoplasma and GAPDH): For all 4 replicates no band is recognized.Positive control of the PCR (Mycoplasma): For 2/4 replicates a band is recognized at 360 bp.
