Description

General description

PCR grade water is sterile-filtered. It is free from exonucleases (DNAse, RNAse) and endonuclease (NICKase) and is also free from nucleic acid contamination.

Application

Suitable for polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

Water has been used:

as a component of the reaction mixture and as a diluting agent in microfluidic RT-qPCR
as a component of the reaction mixture for the amplification of products from fungal (Trametes versicolor) DNA
as a diluting agent and as a component of the reaction mixture for the amplification of cDNA
Water has been used to make up the final volume of the sample in polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

Contaminations occurring in fungal PCR assays.

J Loeffler et al.

Journal of clinical microbiology, 37(4), 1200-1202 (1999-03-13)

Successful in vitro amplification of fungal DNA in clinical specimens has been reported recently. In a collaboration among five European centers, the frequency and risk of contamination due to airborne spore inoculation or carryover contamination in fungal PCR were analyzed.

Identification of Naegleria fowleri in domestic water sources by nested PCR.

Francine Marciano-Cabral et al.

Applied and environmental microbiology, 69(10), 5864-5869 (2003-10-09)

The free-living amoeboflagellate Naegleria fowleri is the causative agent of primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), a rapidly fatal disease of the central nervous system. In the United States, the disease is generally acquired while swimming and diving in freshwater lakes and
