Recombinase Aided Amplification for real-time fluorescence detection

Intended Purpose

(RT-)RAA Nucleic Acid Amplification Kit (Fluorescent Method) can be used to amplify nucleic acids. The amplification result can be verified by use of fluorescent probes in real-time.

Recombinase Aided Amplification (RAA) kits are manufactured by QT Biotech Co., Ltd.

Advantages of Recombinase Aided Amplification (RAA)

Rapid amplification and real-time detection

RAA technology amplifies RNA and DNA in just a few minutes. Positive amplification results are usually detectable after 3 to 10 minutes incubation, provided an appropriate fluorescence reader is used for incubation.

Aliquoted freeze-dried reagent mixes

Recombinase Aided Amplification kits are convient to handle. They comprise of freeze-dried enzyme mix aliquoted in standard 0.2mL PCR tubes and of two buffers for rehydration and starting the amplification reaction.

Reverse transcriptase included

In the RT-version of RAA kits, the reverse transcriptase enzyme is included in the freeze-dried reagent pellet. There is no extra pipetting step and no extra costs.

How to use

Protocol for fluorescent RAA assays:

  • prepare mastermix of reagents buffer, magnesium acetate and primer-probe mix
  • open tube with freeze-dried reagents and add mastermix into the inner surface of the tube lid
  • add extracted nucleic acids to the lid as well
  • close tube, short-spin and mix by pulse-vortexing
  • place tube in your instrument and start incubation and detection (at approx. 37-42°C)
