Lyo-Ready Inhibitor-Tolerant qPCR/RT-qPCR Master Mixes
A variety of PCR inhibitors inherent to clinical and environmental samples can negatively impact the sensitivity and accuracy of a molecular assay. Conventionally, to overcome this, specimens undergo processing before testing. However, extraction technologies are not 100% efficient and can impact the amount of target nucleic acid available for testing. Some PCR inhibitors can also co-elute following purification, reducing the efficiency, particularly in quantitative PCR multiplex assays and may even induce false-negative assay results.
Lyo-Ready Inhibitor-Tolerant qPCR Mix, 4x
Liquid (black), lyophilized (red) and lyophilized with 5% stool extract (yellow) formats of Lyo-Ready Inhibitor-Tolerant RT-qPCR Mix, (MDX185). The results demonstrate the lyophilized mixes retain the ability to efficiently amplify to the same level as the liquid mix, even in the presence of inhibitors, with the same reproducibility.

Description
Molecular diagnostic tests are progressively moving towards lyophilized formats. Meridian’s universal Lyo-Ready Inhibitor-Tolerant qPCR/RT-qPCR formulations are ready-to-use quantitative PCR supermixes, containing all components except primers, probes, and template for direct qPCR and RT-qPCR. They are also glycerol-free and include specialized excipients that preserve the mixture as it is exposed to various conditions including freezing, vacuum, and dehydration during lyophilization. After lyophilization they can be shipped and storage at ambient temperature, extended shelf-life, reduced operating steps and potential errors and increased flexibility in sample volume. They are designed for developing qPCR multiplex assays that require minimal sample processing and fast turn-around times (TAT) without compromising sensitivity, for low copy number samples.

FAQs: Inhibitor-Tolerant Mixes
We have tested whole human and bovine blood, saliva, sputum, urine, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), cow milk, stool sample, and plant lysate; other types of samples can be used but we would recommend testing different concentrations to determine the concentrations that can be tolerated. We also recommend you try out our specimen-specific qPCR/RT-qPCR master mixes specially designed for each specimen type, such as blood, saliva/sputum, urine, stool, or plant.
The Inhibitor-Tolerant RT-qPCR mixes have been optimized for magnesium, dNTPs, stabilizers, and enhancers, resulting in highly reproducible, accurate RNA and DNA target amplification under fast thermal cycling conditions, delivering excellent results in qPCR multiplex assays, even in the presence of difficult PCR inhibitors. So we do not recommend adding any additional material, only the primers, probe(s), and sample.
When multiplexing, standard conditions can be used, however, if necessary, the reverse transcription reaction time can be extended up to 20 minutes and/or the temperature can be increased up to 55° C and the annealing/extension time can be extended up to 60 seconds and/or the temperature can be increased up to 65° C, but this will need to be tested during optimization.
We use our own proprietary Taq polymerase and a highly optimized buffer system to overcome inhibition.
These mixes contain glycerol and so cannot be dried down; see our specimen-specific range of inhibitor-tolerant quantitative PCR mixes for lyophilized or air-dried.
我们建议使用一定范围的粗样品浓度或提取量，以确定在什么时候开始出现不可接受的 PCR 抑制。由于血液和粪便标本等某些样本类型通常含有更多的 qPCR/RT-qPCR 反应抑制剂，因此情况会有所不同。
