AMPLIRUN® Shigella flexneri DNA Control, 100 µl

Vircell AMPLIRUN® Shigella DNA Control provides purified, quantified DNA from Shigella flexneri for use as a positive control in nucleic acid amplification techniques. Each control contains the complete microbial genome, quantified at 10,000–20,000 copies/µL (qPCR-determined), and is supplied in a lyophilized, non-infectious format.

This DNA control is designed for PCR, qPCR, and other molecular testing platforms, ensuring reproducibility, sensitivity, and precision in gastrointestinal pathogen diagnostics, food safety testing, and assay validation.

Available Control

Key Features
