TwistAmp^® lyophilised R&D kits

TwistAmp^® kits (supplied with lyophilised reactions) are conveniently provided in a freeze-dried format ideally suited to taking out in the field, point-of-care and other settings with minimal resources, and particularly in situations where maintaining a cold chain just isn’t feasible. TwistAmp^® research kits contain all the reagents necessary to amplify nucleic acids using specific primers designed by the end-user.

TwistAmp^® kits containing freeze-dried reactions^*, offer the following benefits:

• low amplification temperature requirements of RPA enable low-cost, portable equipment to be deployed for testing
• dry-formulated RPA reagents are stable enough to be transported at ambient temperatures
• a multitude of field-friendly detection outputs are enabled including lateral flow and fluorescence.
• sample tolerance and robustness of RPA to some complex sample types make it suited to a wide range of field-based and point-of-care applications.

TwistAmp^® kits facilitate the development of fast, specific and sensitive DNA and RNA detection for numerous applications and uses. TwistAmp^® Basic is a DNA amplification kit suitable for gel analysis, solid-phase, tailed primers, aptamers, electrochemistry and microarray applications. TwistAmp^® exo is a DNA amplification kit to monitor amplification reactions in real-time fluorescence(or end-point using TwistAmp^® fpg kit). TwistAmp^® nfo is a DNA amplification kit for use with simple sandwich assay detection. TwistAmp^® RT kits (Basic RT and exo RT) also include a reverse transcriptase to permit single step RNA detection.
