3. 00u1 Internal control IC HIV 1 Positive control Analysis sensitivity 1 X 10 IU ml Note Analysis sensitivity depends on the sample volume elution volume nucleic acid extraction methods and other factors If you use the RNA extraction kits recommended the analysis sensitivity is the same as it declares However when the sample volume is dozens or even hundreds of times greater than elution volume by some concentrating method it can be much higher 5 Storage e All reagents should be stored at 20 C Storage at 4 C is not recommended e All reagents can be used until the expiration date indicated on the kit label e Repeated thawing and freezing gt 3x should be avoided as this may reduce the sensitivity of the assay e Cool all reagents during the working steps e Super Mix should be stored in the dark 6 Additionally Required Materials and Devices e Biological cabinet e Real time PCR system e Desktop microcentrifuge for eppendorf type tubes RCF max 16 000 x g e Vortex mixer e RNA extraction kit e Real time PCR reaction tubes plates e Cryo container e Pipets 0 5 ul 1000 ul e Sterile filter tips for micro pipets e Sterile microtubes e Disposable gloves powderless e Biohazard waste container e Refrigerator and Freezer e Tube racks 7 Warnings and Precaution Carefully read this instruction before starting the procedure e For in vitro diagnostic use only e This assay needs to be carried
