Quantitative Genomic DNA from Giardia intestinalis strain Portland-1

30888DQ

ATCC® Genuine Nucleics can be used for assay development, verification, validation, monitoring of day-to-day test variation, and lot-to-lot performance of molecular-based assays. The quantitative format allows for the generation of a standard curve for quantitative PCR (qPCR) to determine protozoan load.

General

Specific applications
ATCC® Genuine Nucleics can be used for assay development, verification, validation, monitoring of day-to-day test variation, and lot-to-lot performance of molecular-based assays. The quantitative format allows for the generation of a standard curve for quantitative PCR (qPCR) to determine protozoan load.

Characteristics

Comments
Genomic DNA isolated from a preparation of Giardia intestinalis strain Portland-1 (ATCC® 30888™). The source organism is also available through the ATCC catalog.

DNA quantitated by PCR.

Handling information

Handling procedure
  1. Thaw the vial at room temperature and immediately place on ice. Avoid exposing the DNA to repeated freeze-thaw cycles as it may result in degradation.
  2. Gently mix the sample to ensure an even distribution of material.
  3. Briefly centrifuge the tube before opening to ensure all liquid is at the bottom.
Handling notes
Aliquoting is highly recommended to avoid multiple freeze-thaws.
