Live and dead microbes detection system
Features
For differentiation of live and dead cells.
- Simultaneous photo-activation of up to 12 samples
- Constant and uniform light dosage for optimal PMA activation
- No heating of samples during PMA photo-activation
- The BLU-V System allows the neutralization of the DNA of dead organisms through the use of photo-activation on intercalating agents.
- Neutralizing the DNA of dead organisms allows the downstream detection of DNA of living cells by conventional PCR or real-time PCR.
- The BLU-V System is a thermally stable instrument that generates a constant and uniform light dosage to allow simultaneous photo-activation of 12 Propidium Monoazide (PMA) treated samples, permitting differentiation of live and dead microorganisms.
