Description
With one simple Common Extraction™ method, testers can simultaneously test for multiple genetic traits instead of preparing a separate extract for each trait. Simply grind the kernels, extract the sample using tap water, drop in a QuickComb, and read the results.
Detects: Roundup Ready, YieldGard Corn Borer, YieldGard Rootworm, Herculex I, Herculex RW, Agrisure RW, LibertyLink, Viptera, and/or SmartStax corn
Results in: 5 minutes
Format: Nine different lateral flow membrane strips (dipsticks) custom-assembled into comb format, sealed in foil pouches; also includes disposable sample cups and disposable transfer pipettes
Matrix: Corn grain
LOD (Limit of Detection): Varies by analyte, from 0.25% (1 kernel in a pool of 400) to 1% (1 kernel in a pool of 100).
Reagents: None required. Optimized for use with the Common Extraction method using only tap water
