GenoScreenTM KRAS/BRAF qPCR Kit

Kit allows researchers to detect KRAS and BRAF mutations via real time PCR analysis. It differentiates eight KRAS mutations and one BRAF mutation.

What is it?

Highly sensitive real time PCR kit
 
This assay kit allows researchers to detect KRAS and BRAF mutations in colorectal cancer patients which can hinder the effectiveness of typically expensive targeted therapy. 
 
Highly sensitive and cost-effective, differentiates eight KRAS mutations found in codons 12 and 13 and one BRAF mutation in codon 600.
 
The kit can conduct 24 tests and delivers results three hours after extraction.

Who is it for?

This kit is especially valuable to colorectal cancer researchers.
 
Please note that the GenoScreen KRAS/BRAF real time PCR kit is for research purposes and molecular biology applications only. 
 
This product is not intended for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of disease.

Why is it different?

This highly sensitive kit allows selective site-specific detection of mutant DNA.
 
It can detect less than 0.1% mutant sequence copies against a background of 99.9% wild-type DNA.
 
The ready-to-use reagent is compatible with various real time PCR machines and delivers results 3 hours after extraction.

Advantages

Accurate – Highly sensitive test allows site-specific detection of less than 0.1% mutant sequence copies in a background of 99.9% wild-type DNA
Fast – Delivers results in approximately 3 hours, tests up to 8 samples simultaneously
Easy – No post-PCR manipulation required
Cost effective – Lowest overall cost in market
