Quantitative Mycoplasma DNA Offers Quality Control
ATCC has expanded its solutions for mycoplasma quality control to include quantitative mycoplasma genomic DNA prepared as Certified Reference Materials. These preparations support its range of quality control products, which include the Universal Mycoplasma Detection Kit and a collection of 10 titered mycoplasma reference strains. ATCC Certified Reference Materials are calibrated to one or more specified properties, making them useful in challenge assays, verifying or comparing test methods, and benchmarking assay performance during assay validation or implementation. Quantitative mycoplasma DNA Certified Reference Materials were isolated from strains most frequently associated with cell culture contamination, and were quantified for genome copy number using digital PCR-based technology.
