One reagent, one sample – many applications!

From the same sample you can run PCR, RT-qPCR, Western Blot and measure DNA quantity.

The main advantage of using DireCtQuant 100ST / DireCtQuant 100W is that DNA, RNA and proteins can be analysed from a single sample without the need of prior separation and purification. Those reagents provide instant and complete solubilisation of the cells in the sample and permits effective extraction of:

  • Proteins;
  • Genomic DNA;
  • Plasmid DNA;
  • Plastid DNA;
  • mitochondrial and viral DNA;
  • messenger RNA;
  • structural (such as ribosomal) RNA;
  • transport RNA;
  • microRNA;
  • non-coding and viral RNA.

The DNA in DireCtQuant 100ST / DireCtQuant 100W solubilised sample can be directly analysed by:

  • PCR
  • quantitative (Real Time) PCR (qPCR)
  • quantified in solution using DireCtQuant DNAQ (Ref #DCQDNAQ)

The RNA in the sample can be directly analysed by reverse transcription followed by PCR or quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR)

The proteins can be directly analysed by Western blot.
