Liquid DNA quality control standard

Starna has introduced a new DNA quality control standard in an easy-to-use liquid vial (1.5 mL) that provides Starna’s DNACON 260/280 reference material in a consumable format suitable for use in ‘drop technology’ systems.

The vial is produced in an ISO 17025- and ISO Guide 34-accredited environment and provides a NIST-traceable quality control standard to enable quick and reliable quality assurance of the DNA 260/280 nm measurement process. The concentration is matched for use with the ultralow (<5 ìL) and short path length (1 mm) volume measurement systems now available from several vendors. The Starna DNACON 260/280 quality control standard is ideal for performing DNA purity evaluations in clinical and bioscience laboratories.

The new Starna DNACON 260/280 quality control standard mimics the spectral characteristics of DNA solutions with respect to the 260/280 nm ratio. The reference material used by Starna is stable and durable because it is not DNA, and thus it overcomes the problem of DNA solutions being inherently unstable.
