This bestselling kit is designed to minimize false positives, ensuring quick and reliable routine screening of cell cultures. A recent official publication by a national public health agency found that our kit out-performs Sigma and Lonzas kits while being 6X less expensive than ATCCs kit Russell et al., 2020 . Mycoplasma species are highly undesirable, easily acquired, and notoriously difficult to detect, altering infected cells at the molecular level and leading to visible changes in cell morphology and growth characteristics. Timely detection of Mycoplasma in cell culture media is recommended in order to deter wide-spread contamination and save on the costly efforts of elimination. Our proprietary MasterMix formulation contains a gel loading dye, making it convenient for gel electrophoresis. Kit Features: No DNA isolation needed: Add cell culture media sample directly to PCR reaction Rapid and Comprehensive: Detect 200+ Mycoplasma species in less than 2 hours Highly Sensitive and Specific: Demonstrated the highest true positive and lowest false positive rates compared to competing kits Easy-to-use: Includes ready-to-use primer mix and positive control 6X less expensive per sample compared to competing kits Russel et al., 2020 Out-performs Sigma and Lonzas kits Russel et al., 2020 Combine with our bestselling MycoAway 1000X Mycoplasma Cocktail Cat.

Why test your cells for Mycoplasma? Due to its small size, Mycoplasma can be present in your growth media without being visibly detected. This can cause significant errors in your experiments due to its effects on: proliferation metabolism gene synthesis & processing adhesion properties and more Many publishers now request Mycoplasma testing to be reported along with manuscript submissions to ensure accuracy in data reporting.
