Hygiena Reagent D KIT230003

Reagent D is a light-sensitive reagent designed to eliminate DNA from dead cells to prevent false-positive PCR results in food safety testing. The reagent penetrates membranes of dead cells and, upon exposure to visible light, binds covalently to DNA to block PCR amplification. Reagent D is validated for testing multiple foodborne organisms and is intended for use in food safety and environmental monitoring workflows in conjunction with DNA isolation kits.

Key Features:

• Volume: 15 mL (set of 3 bottles containing 5 mL each)
• Light-sensitive reagent that binds covalently to DNA upon visible light exposure
• Validated for Enterobacteriaceae, Cronobacter, Salmonella, Legionella and Vibrio
• Compatible with Hygiena DNA isolation kits
• Intended for elimination of DNA from dead cells to prevent false-positive PCR amplification

Advantages:

• Reduces false-positive PCR results by eliminating DNA from non-viable cells
• Improves accuracy of viable microorganism detection in food safety and environmental monitoring
• Validated across multiple relevant pathogens for broad applicability in food testing
• Designed for direct use with Hygiena DNA isolation workflows for streamlined integration
