PCR Cabinets
The Airstream® and Streamline® PCR Cabinets offer true vertical laminar airflow with a large filter covering the entire work zone within the cabinet for better protection against cross contamination, as compared to conventional dead-air boxes.
The Airstream® and Streamline® models have a high-quality polyester pre-filter and main HEPA filter with a typical efficiency of 99.99% at 0.3 microns provide the best product protection in the world; typical HEPA filter life span is more than 3 years depending on operating conditions and total number of hours in use.
Biosearch Technologies
Specializes in custom synthesized oligonucleotides and DNA synthesis products.
Fluorogenic Probes and Primers
Biosearch Technologies offers a variety of Probes and Primers for real-time qPCR gene expression assays and SNP genotyping.
Dual-labeled BHQ® Probes are available in a wide selection of fluorophore-quencher combinations for dual-labeled probes. Dual-Labeled BHQ Probes are ideal for detecting the presence and quantifying the amount of specific target sequences.
The BHQplus™ Probe is a novel compact probe for qPCR, modified with a duplex stabilizing technology and terminated with Biosearch’s Black Hole Quencher® dye.
Molecular Beacons have short complementary sequences which hybridize to form a stem-loop structure that holds the fluorophore and quencher close together in space.
Scorpions® Primers combines the probe and primer into one molecule and uses a uni-molecular mechanism that does not require enzymatic cleavage of the probe during PCR cycling.
Amplifluor® Primers combine primer and probe in one molecule. The oligo contains the primer sequence at the 3' end and a hairpin structure at the 5' end.
Plexor® Primers technology for real-time, quantitative PCR is a new and novel technique that requires only two primers for sensitive and specific quantitation of amplified DNA.
Calibration and Reference Dyes (CAL Fluor® and Quasar® dye) calibration standards are designed to improve the accuracy of sample signal in real-time thermal cyclers that require spectral calibration.
SuperROX® Reference Dye is a specially formulated version of the ROX (carboxy-X-rhodamine) dye.
Arise Biotech

EzWay™ One-Step RT-PCR MasterMix is designed for sensitive and specific amplification in one-tube reaction for total RNA transcripts. The MasterMix is a premixed buffer solution containing MMLV Reverse Transcriptase and Hot Taq DNA Polymerase, dNTPs, tracking and loading dye and stabilizers.
For further information see the range of RT-PCR kits.
Real-Time qPCR
The EzWay™ Hot Universal qMasterMix is a premixed solution containing Hot Taq DNA Polymerase, dNTPs and the specialized reaction buffer for probe-based qPCR. Features real-time quantitative PCR of DNA and cDNA targets using florescent probe.
The Ezway™ Direct Hot Universal qMasterMix is a premixed solution containing Hot Taq DNA Polymerase, dNTPs, MgCL2, and Direct PCR buffer optimized for a real time PCR in a 1.5ml tube.
For further information see the range of Real-Time qPCR kits.
PCR Optimization
EzWay™ Opti-PCR Kit is a collection of 15 different buffers (variation of the pH-range and the MgCl2 concentration). The ready-to-use reaction buffers will cover a wide range of possible values for all ingredients.
EzWay™ Contam-Free PCR Solution is designed to eliminate DNA contaminants before PCR amplification using a photochemical that effectively destroys DNA's ability to act as template for PCR.
For further information see the range of PCR Optimization kits.
DNA Methylation Detection
EzWay™ DNA Methylation Detection Kit converts unmethylated cytosine into uracil and leaves methylated cytosine as it is using Na-bisulfite. The advantage of the kit is a very high recovery rate that comes from the proprietary binding and elution buffer for Na-bisulfite treated DNA. The advanced EzWay™ DNA Methylation Detection Express Kit allows quick C/U conversion, so all the key procedures from conversion to DNA purification are done within 3-4 hours.
