Certificate of Analysis & Product Specifications
The SCA2 Genemer™ supplied has been validated to amplify the CAG triple repeat spanning region ATXN2 gene.
_______________________________________
Genemer™ are optimized primer pairs for amplification of the gene fragment of interest, particularly those spanning a mutation. A wide range is available from single base pair
mutation sites, the complex triple repeat disorders and various pathogens. Genemer™ kits are complete, easy-to-use systems for reliable genotyping of large repeats in certain triple
repeat disorder.
The Genemer™ product contains 10 nmols of the primer pair that is sufficient for 400 regular 50 µl amplifications. The Genemer™ Kit contains reagents as well as control DNA sufficient for 100 amplifications.
