PCRD – NALFIA
A rapid and safe alternative to ethidium bromide staining of agarose gels
PCRD nucleic acid lateral flow immunoassays (NALFIA) are used as an alternative to using DNA agarose gel electrophoresis. While taking only 10 minutes to detect the successful amplification of target DNA sequences, PCRD is the choice for busy laboratories wanting fast results.
- Time to result of 10 minutes
- Safe to use – avoids using intercalating dye, ethidium bromide and UV light
- No special chemistry or equipment required
- Easy to use
- Sensitive
- Run many strips simultaneously
- Cost-effective
Time-saving, rapid NALFIA technology aiding laboratory budgets and schedules
What is PCRD?
PCRD nucleic acid lateral flow immunoassays detect amplicons labelled with DIG/Biotin and/or FITC (or FAM)/Biotin. The tests allow the visualisation of double-stranded amplification products and selected binding partners due to an aggregation of carbon particles at the test’s capture lines.
If PCRD or PCRD FLEX is not suitable for your amplification product, we do offer customisation. However, if the specification is suitable but you would like our nucleic acid tests re-branding, we can also help.
