Description
General description
Assurance® GDS (Genetic Detection System) is an automated nucleic acid amplification system for the detection of pathogenic organisms in foods, ingredients, and environmental samples. The proprietary GDS PickPen®, 8-Magnets is designed to transfer magnetic particles when working with Assurance® GDS pathogen detection kits. The incorporation of the PickPen® in the immunomagnetic separation (IMS) process improves the procedure by concentrating the target pathogenwhile decreasing carryover of background microflora without compromising the sensitivity.
Application
Immunomagnetic Separation (IMS)
The GDS PickPen®, 8-Magnets is designed to transfer magnetic particles when working with Assurance® GDS pathogen detection kits used for the detection of pathogenic organisms in foods, ingredients, and environmental samples.
Features and Benefits
Compatible with all Assurance® GDS disposable wells/plates, 8 samples can be taken through IMS at one time
Consistent recovery of immuno-magnetic particles during IMS
Lower carryover of background microflora
Other Notes
One GDS PickPen
