AMPLIRUN® Cryptosporidium parvum DNA Control, 100 µl

Vircell AMPLIRUN® Cryptosporidium parvum DNA Control (MBC126-R) provides purified, quantified DNA from Cryptosporidium parvum for use as a positive control in nucleic acid amplification techniques. Supplied in a lyophilized, non-infectious format, this control contains the complete microbial genome, quantified at 700–2,000 copies/µL (qPCR-determined).

It is suitable for PCR, qPCR, and other molecular platforms, allowing laboratories to validate assays, monitor sensitivity and specificity, and perform absolute quantification in research on gastrointestinal pathogens and waterborne infections.

Key Features

• Purified complete genome DNA – Cryptosporidium parvum.
• qPCR quantified – 700–2,000 copies/µL (lower copy concentration than typical bacterial/fungal controls for realistic assay validation).
• Sequencing data available – supports probe and primer design.
• Non-infectious & lyophilized – safe to handle, stable during shipping and storage without dry ice.
• Convenient reconstitution – resuspend with 100 µL Molecular Biology Grade Water (included).
• Universal compatibility – works with all nucleic acid amplification platforms.

Applications

• Positive control for Cryptosporidium PCR/qPCR assays.
• Validation of diagnostic methods for gastrointestinal pathogens.
• Absolute quantification via standard curve generation.
• Quality assurance and reproducibility testing in molecular workflows.
• Research into waterborne protozoan infections and public health monitoring.

Product Details

The AMPLIRUN® Cryptosporidium DNA Control provides laboratories with a reliable and standardized positive control for molecular detection of Cryptosporidium parvum. With its quantified genome at lower copy numbers, safe lyophilized format, and universal compatibility, it is an essential tool for assay validation, waterborne infection research, and gastrointestinal pathogen testing.
