Prep-n-Go™ Buffer (5 tubes) (Applied Biosystems™)

The Prep-n-Go™ Buffer is an excellent solution designed to enable high quality direct PCR amplification of non-FTA™ reference samples without the need for heat incubation, extraction or purification. Prep-n-Go™ Buffer enables increased STR profile quality with fewer intermediate steps than currently available solutions for non-FTA™ reference samples.
• Minimizes the requirement for heat incubation or additional workflow steps
• Designed to provide consistent, interpretable peaks above the detection threshold, and high quality, well-balanced STR profiles
• Helps simplify automation requirements and expand throughput capabilities
• Helps maximize sample integrity and data quality
• Developed according to stringent performance standards to enable higher data reproducibility, reduced artifacts, and increased success rates with Applied Biosystems™ STR direct amplification solutions

The Prep-n-Go™ Buffer has been validated for direct PCR amplification of reference samples collected with the Bode Buccal DNA Collector™ using Identifiler™ Direct kit, and has been extensively field tested by several medium to high-throughput DNA databasing laboratories. To view complete validation results, please see the current Identifiler™ Direct Kit User Guide.

Prep-n-Go™ Buffer is available in one package size of 1,000 reactions.This packaging solution is designed to enable processing of Bode Buccal DNA Collector™ samples. An additional larger package size designed to enable processing with buccal swabs (which require a larger buffer volume) is in development for upcoming release.

If your laboratory is interested in using the Prep-n-Go™ Buffer with other AmpFLSTR™ PCR Amplification Kits (e.g. the NGM™ and NGM SElect™ kits) or for direct amplification of buccal swab reference samples, please contact your HID support specialist.
