ZymoBIOMICS Spike-in Control II (Low Microbial Load), 250 Preps

ZymoBIOMICS Spike-in Control II (Low Microbial Load) consists of three bacteria strains, Truepera radiovictrix, Imtechella halotolerans and Allobacillus halotolerans. When spiked into a microbial sample, this product will serve as an in situ positive control for DNA-sequencing-based microbiome measurements. Of the three chosen bacteria, Imtechella halotolerans is Gram-negative and Allobacillus halotolerans is Gram-positive. Truepera radiovictrix is resistant to lysozyme lysis and has very high GC content. They represent different challenges in NGS-based analysis. Moreover, with accurately quantified cell number and a log abundance distribution, this standard enables absolute cell number quantification in cases such as pathogen load detection. Absolute Quantification: Enables cell number measurements from low bacterial load samples using Next-Gen Sequencing.In situ Quality Control: Ensures each sample is quantified accurately. Log Abundance Distribution: Three microbes alien to the human microbiome in log-distribution from 103 to 105 cells.Storage Temperature: -20CStorage Conditions: FreezerBiosafety: This product is not biohazardous as microbes have been fully inactivated.Impurity Level: < 0.01% foreign microbial DNA Sample Storage: -80°C Storage Solution: DNA/RNA ShieldShipping Weight: 0.25 lbsShipping Dimensions: 3.00 x 1.00 x 3.00Research or further manufacturing use only, not for food or drug use.
