Product Information
Specifications
- Product Name: Sheep Species Detection Kit
- Product No.: KIT230224
- Revision: A, December 2023
- PCR kit for the qualitative detection of Sheep DNA using real-time PCR instruments
Product Usage Instructions
Program Setup
Before setting up the PCR reactions, program your real-time PCR instrument by selecting the following channels: FAM (Sheep) and VIC/HEX (Internal Control).
Data Interpretation
Verify the results of positive (Control Template) and negative (H2O) controls before interpreting the sample results. Always compare samples to positive and negative controls. Interpret results based on the data from each channel.
Result InterpretationFAM | VIC/HEX | Result Interpretation |
---|---|---|
+ | – | Positive for Sheep |
+ or – | – | Negative for Sheep |
– | – | Invalid |
Preparation of the RT-PCR Mix
- Take appropriate precautions to prevent contamination, e.g., using filter tips and wearing gloves.
- Thaw reagents, mix (do not vortex!), and briefly spin vials before opening.
- Prepare PCR mix for each reaction in a suitable tube. Mix carefully but thoroughly.
- Add PCR mix.
- Add samples and controls.
- Seal strips/plates accurately.
- Briefly spin strips/plate in a suitable centrifuge.
- Start real-time PCR run by cycling samples as described.
Note: For food testing purposes. For in vitro use only.

PREPARATION OF THE RT-PCR MIX
- Take appropriate precautions to prevent contamination, e.g., using filter tips and gloves.
- Thaw reagents, mix (do not vortex!), and briefly spin vials before opening.
- PREPARE PCR MIX
- Add 10 µL Master Mix (2XM) and for each reaction to 4μL Primer/Probe Mix (P) a suitable tube.
- (In samples + 2 controls + at least one additional reaction to cover pipetting loss). Mix carefully but thoroughly by pipetting up and down.
- ADD PCR MIX
- Pipet 14 μL of prepared PCR mix into each strip or plate well.
- ADD SAMPLES AND CONTROLS
- Pipet 6 μL of samples, negative control (PCR-grade H2O, not included) or Control Template (C) into respective wells.
- SEAL
- Seal strips/plates accurately.
- CENTRIFUGE
- Briefly spin strips/plate in a suitable centrifuge.
- START REAL-TIME PCR RUN
- Cycle samples as described above.
