Both a semi-automated machine for high throughput applications as a hand model for efficient grinding of small number of samples are available within the range of BIOREBA. The BIOREBA extraction bags are suitable for use with the extraction devices.
  • Extraction buffers for DAS-ELISA (General, Grapevine, Bulbs & Tubers and Caulimo) and PCR (Potato DNA/RNA rapid extraction buffer).

The four plant pathogen diagnostic tests of BIOREBA are:

  • AgriStrip, a rapid one-step assay based on lateral flow immunochromatography suitable to confirm the presence of a plant pathogen in samples with suspicious symptoms.
  • ELISA: individual ELISA reagents, ELISA reagent sets and ELISA complete kits.
  • qPCR sets include Taq Master Mix, RT Master Mix (for RNA virus), Nuclease free Water, Primers-, Probes- and Internal Control Mix. The qPCR kits include additionally to the qPCR sets also the rapid DNA/RNA extraction set.
  • PCR Macroarray, a diagnostic kit for multiplex detection of eight potato pathogens (7 viruses and 1 viroid in one single reaction). To perform a test, less than 5 hours are required.

For additional products and disposables for the preparation of plant samples and liquid handling BIOREBA provides chemicals, buffers and substrates for ELISA applications. Additionally ELISA plates, single- and multichannel reservoirs, single- and multichannel pipettes and pipette tips.
