Introduction The q. PCR set enables the simultaneous detection (multiplex) of potato leafroll virus

Introduction The q. PCR set enables the simultaneous detection (multiplex) of potato leafroll virus (PLRV) and potato virus Y (PVY) with real time PCR. Viral RNAs extracted from potato samples (with our “potato DNA/RNA rapid extraction set”) are amplified in a one-step RT-PCR reaction. The increase of the amplified c. DNAs can be monitored in real time since the specific probes are labeled with fluorophores.

Suitable tissues for the source of viral RNA are Leaves From tubers: Stolon, peel

Suitable tissues for the source of viral RNA are Leaves From tubers: Stolon, peel and sprouts From dormant tubers use: Heel For the procedure of nucleic acid extraction please refer to the Potato DNA/RNA rapid extraction set

The q. PCR set: The q. PCR sets are available for 96 or 192

The q. PCR set: The q. PCR sets are available for 96 or 192 reactions: Each set contains: Taq Master Mix (2 x) Primers/Probes/IC Mix_PLRV/PVY (10 x) RT Master Mix (50 x) Nuclease free water AND

Preparation of the q. PCR samples Gently thaw the kit components on ice or

Preparation of the q. PCR samples Gently thaw the kit components on ice or at 4°C. Mix the tubes briefly and spin the liquid down. Determine the number of reactions to prepare, then increase the number by 1 -2 to compensate for pipetting losses.

Preparation of the q. PCR samples II Prepare the master mix reaction by combining

Preparation of the q. PCR samples II Prepare the master mix reaction by combining the kit components according to the table below:

Preparation of the q. PCR samples III Add the reaction mix to each PCR

Preparation of the q. PCR samples III Add the reaction mix to each PCR tube or well of an optical grade plate. Add 2 -5 μl RNA template to the samples reactions. Seal the tubes or plates, centrifuge briefly and protect from light before thermal cycling.
