Compared to other line-probe assays, Speed-oligo Mycobacteria covers a relatively limited spectrum of species but uses a simpler and faster dip-stick technique.
Compared to other line-probe assays, Speed-oligo Mycobacteria differentiates most of the species only to a level of complexes or groups.
Through continued future development with more hydrophilic and cleavable cross-linkers such as DHEBA, with the effective separation and probing initially demonstrated here, we plan to further push the bounds of sample molecular weight, sensitivity, and assay speed.
Thus, this fluorimetry-based method is a rapid predictor of cytotoxicity, superior to other assays in speed and cost effectiveness.
It is likely that the expanding use of array-based copy number variant detection assays will speed the identification of individuals with small 1p36 deletions that can be used to refine the 1p36 critical regions that have already been delineated and to identify new critical regions.
This is because current assays, such as TaqMan®, are limited, in terms of assay speed, by the 5′ 3′ exonuclease activity of Taq DNA polymerase.
Compared with those methods mentioned above, the chemiluminescence CL) method has been growing in popularity and acceptance because of its advantages such as high sensitivity, rapid assay speed and simple instrumentation.
Assay speed, simplicity, sensitivity, and cost significantly impacts the effectiveness of biomarker validation.
We measured pFR and speed at the earliest time point of the assay (speed at 0.18 sec) of these NILs.
In order to compare the assay speed and robustness, the Tt value is converted to minutes by 1 Tt = 2 minutes.
A new DNA line probe assay (Speed-oligo Mycobacteria, Vircell) has been launched for rapid differentiation of Mycobacterium spp. from cultures.
