Mycoplasma Detection in Hours, not Days. 
It's about Time.

Mycoplasmas are potential contaminants in mammalian cell culture manufacturing. To ensure product quality, regulatory agencies recommend that all products produced in cell culture be tested for the presence of Mycoplasma.

However, detecting these contaminants is difficult, sometimes impossible, when using traditional microbiological techniques. The current Mycoplasma test is a 28-day culture test. In 2007, the European Pharmacopeia accepted nucleic acid tests, such as real-time PCR, as an alternative method for traditional Mycoplasma detection after validation.

Screen for Mycoplasma in Under 4 Hours
The MicroSEQ® Mycoplasma Detection System integrates real-time PCR assays, instruments, and software with optimized PrepSEQ™ sample preparation reagents—delivering results in hours, not days. This enables you to test at multiple points in cell lines, cell banks, and harvest media, increasing your productivity and reducing risk of downstream contamination.

• Proven specificity to more than 90 Mycoplasma species, with no cross-reactivity with unrelated DNA
• Demonstrated sensitivity from 100 µl to 10 ml of cell culture samples
• Easy-to-use 3-step workflow
• Seamless integration from detection to identification using the MicroSEQ® Full Gene 16S rDNA Bacterial Identification Kit
