| Description | Bacterial Xpress Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit |
| Overview | Intended Use The Light Diagnostics' BacterialXpress™ nucleic acid extraction kit is intended for the purification of bacterial DNA from plasma, serum, cerebral spinal fluid, amniotic fluid, tissue, bone marrow, and cell culture. The BacterialXpress™ kit provides a rapid method for the extraction and purification of amplification-competent nucleic acids; however, the kit does not separate DNA from RNA. The BacterialXpress™ nucleic acid extraction kit can be used for the extraction and purification of a broad range of bacterial DNA from a variety of sources. However, performance cannot be guaranteed for all bacteria from all sources. FOR LABORATORY USE ONLY; not for use in diagnostic procedures. |

|---|---|
| Storage Conditions | BacterialXpress™ references a 2-8°C storage temperature, however, the product can also be stored at room temperature upon arrival. Product is stable up to the expiration date printed on the kit label at 2-8°C or at room temperature. Reagent will crystallize upon storage at 2-8°C and should be re-dissolved with gentle warming at 37° C before use. WARNIINGS AND PRECAUCTIONS: Light Diagnostics' BacterialXpress™ nucleic acid extraction reagent removes endogenous nucleases. Certified nuclease-free plasticware should be used whenever possible and work surfaces should be cleaned frequently with a diluted bleach solution to reduce the possibility for nuclease contamination. Proper aseptic technique should be used when working with potentially infectious material. The BacterialXpress™ reagent contains a chaotropic salt, which is an irritant and is not compatible with disinfecting agents that contain bleach. Dispose chaotropic salt containing solutions and plasticware according to your institutions waste-disposal guidelines. The BacterialXpress™ reagent contains chaotropic salts, which may irritate the skin and damage clothing. As with any extraction procedure, use gloves, a laboratory coat and safety goggles. Avoid breathing vapors. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes or skin with a large amount of saline or water for at least 15 minutes. DO NOT ALLOW THE EXTRACTION REAGENT TO COME IN CONTACT WITH BLEACH. |
