AMPLIRUN® Norovirus RNA Control, 50 µl

Vircell AMPLIRUN® Norovirus RNA Control provides purified, quantified RNA from the complete genome of norovirus, for use as a positive control in nucleic acid amplification techniques. The control is quantified at 700–2,000 copies/µL (qPCR-determined) and supplied in a lyophilized, non-infectious format.

This RNA control is designed for PCR, qPCR, and other molecular testing platforms, ensuring assay reproducibility, sensitivity, and precision in gastroenteritis research, outbreak investigations, and molecular diagnostic validation.

Available Control

Key Features

• Purified complete genome RNA – full-length norovirus genome.
• qPCR quantified – 700–2,000 copies/µL for reliable assay calibration.
• Sequencing data available – complete genome reference (PP825703) supports primer/probe design.
• Non-infectious & lyophilized – safe, stable, and easy to ship/store without dry ice.
• Convenient reconstitution – resuspend with 50 µL Molecular Biology Grade Water (provided).
• Universal compatibility – suitable for PCR, qPCR, RT-PCR, and other RNA amplification methods.

Applications

• Positive control for norovirus PCR/RT-PCR/qPCR assays.
• Validation of in-house and commercial molecular diagnostic kits.
• Determination of assay sensitivity, specificity, limit of detection (LoD), and reproducibility.
• Absolute quantification via standard curve generation.
• Reliable alternative to clinical stool samples in molecular diagnostics and QC.
