Mycoplasma Testing and Detection Kits

Kits that detect and test for Mycoplasma are readily available from many reliable suppliers. Mycoplasma are bacterial organisms that can contaminate cell cultures and can be a serious problem for many laboratories. Contaminated cultures can exhibit altered phenotypes and can potentially impact experimental results and cell lines. Some common methods of Mycoplasma detection include PCR and qPCR assays, enzyme-based immunosorbent assays (ELISA), and metabolic enzyme activity assays. Routine testing is important. When choosing a type of Mycoplasma test kit, consider the necessary equipment, regulatory requirements, and desired throughput. Visit the supplier pages for more details, including the list of all targeted Mycoplasma species.
