Thermo Fisher Scientific Invitrogen™ Qubit™ 1X Dsdna Hs Assay Kit, 100 Assays Per Kit

The Qubit™ dsDNA Broad Range (BR) Assay Kit is designed for accurate and selective quantification of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in a broad range of concentrations. It is ideal for routine DNA quantification, supporting 500 reactions per kit and a quantitation range of 4 to 2000 ng. This assay is compatible with all Qubit Fluorometers and is suitable for a wide variety of molecular biology applications.

Key Features

1. Broad Quantitation Range:
   • Measures dsDNA concentrations from 4 to 2000 ng.
   • Suitable for high-abundance DNA samples, such as plasmid or genomic DNA.
2. High Selectivity:
   • Distinguishes dsDNA from contaminants like:
     • Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA).
     • RNA, proteins, and free nucleotides.
3. Precision and Robustness:
   • Reliable quantification even in the presence of salts, solvents, or detergents.
   • Fluorescence-based detection ensures high sensitivity and accuracy.
4. Simple Workflow:
   • Concentrated assay reagent and pre-diluted DNA standards included.
   • Mix reagent with the provided dilution buffer, add 1–20 µL of your sample, and measure using a Qubit Fluorometer.
5. Flexible Applications:
   • Suitable for quantifying plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, or other high-abundance samples.
6. High Throughput:
   • Provides enough reagents for 500 reactions, making it ideal for labs with frequent DNA quantification needs.
