Easy and fast detection of mycoplasma

Specifications of this product

MycoStrip® has been specifically designed to detect Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma species that most commonly contaminate cell cultures. Importantly, there is no cross-reactivity with any other tested bacterial, fungal, or mammalian DNA when using MycoStrip®.
MycoStrip® is shipped at room temperature.

Features of this product

Simple - Easy to perform, and unlike most other mycoplasma detection assays, no special lab equipment is required.
Rapid - Performed in 1 hour, with less than 15 minutes of hands-on time.
Specific - MycoStrip® has been specifically designed to detect the Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma species that most commonly contaminate cell culture. These include the six species that account for 95% of all contaminations: M. orale, M. hyorhinis, M. arginini, M. fermentans, M. hominis, and A. laidlawii. Importantly, because the MycoStrip® reaction mix detects unique regions of DNA there is no cross-reactivity with other bacterial, fungal or mammalian DNA.
Clear - Fast and easy-to-interpret results that appear within 2-5 minutes, as 1 or 2 bands on the strip.
- One band - negative for mycoplasma
- Two bands - positive for mycoplasma

Why choose this product?

Mycoplasma is a major problem in cell culture, with various sources of contamination such as lab operators, dirty water baths/incubators, and biological reagents. Due to their small size, mycoplasma is undetectable by visual inspection, they pass through standard filtration, and are resistant to a large number of antibiotics. There are many reasons to regularly test your cell culture for mycoplasma and these include:

Loss of precious samples
Serious impact on data reliability and reproducibility
Testing is required by most journals for publication
Loss of time and money
