5X AmpSolution™ Reagent
The 5X AmpSolution™ Reagent streamlines the processing of swabs and punches for PowerPlex® STR analysis without compromising your results. While direct amplification from FTA® cards is transforming workflows in databasing and paternity testing labs, buccal swabs and non FTA cards are not ideal substrates for direct amplification.
Additionally, the AmpSolution™ Reagent enables direct amplification of DNA from unwashed FTA® punches, nonFTA punches and swabs from traditional PowerPlex® kits that were not originally intended for that application, minimizing the need to validate a new system to perform direct amplification.
Buccal Samples on FTA® Punches
Two 1.2mm punches from a buccal sample on an FTA® card were amplified using the PowerPlex® ESX 17 System. Prior to amplification, AmpSolution™ Reagent was added to the reaction mix. Amplified products were separated on an Applied Biosystems 3130xl Genetic Analyzer (3kV, 5-second injection). -
