• 3) New universal tools (Genekam ready to use PCR kits) to discover the unknown strains of all influenza viruses.*: Download as HTML-file Ready to use PCR kits for Influenza viruses (particularly H1N1) and related micro organisms: Here are the best tools to do research:.
• A). Swine flu Virus: Genekam developed her own assays for molecular detecting of various kinds of H1N1 strains in gel agarose, we are also developing assays for real time PCR. If one understands the H1N1 strains of influenza viruses correctly and keep in mind recent outbreak strains , these H1N1 strains can be divided in 3 classes:
• 1) H1N1 strain of recent outbreak (so called novel strain of H1N1 of swine origin)
• 2) seasonal H1N1 strain (so called novel strain of H1N1 of human origin)
• 3. H1N1 strain of swine circulating in swine populations. There are a number of research laboratories, which are focusing and making publications for detecting two strains i.e. Class 1 and 2, therefore Genekam has decided to bring one kit to genotype them along with bringing a number of assays to detect H1N1 strain of recent outbreak of swine flu. Such kits are needed to understand the distribution of such viruses properly and may help to generate more accurate preventative measurements along with perhaps providing better understanding to find better therapies, hence these kits can be used in research work. Genekam has developed the solutions, which are highly specific to detect only the recently outbreak H1N1 virus like California, Mexico, New York, Texas, Canada, Hamburg, Regensburg, Italy, Norway, Beijing, Shanghai, South Australia, Louisiana, Victoria, Chile, Thailand, Korea, Ankara, Philippines, Bayer, Catonia and other strains. We have developed the assays, which can detect N1 part of influenza A viruses like H1N1, H5N1, H6N1, H7N1 etc. Genekam kit needs only isolated RNA to conduct the assay and this contains components like PCR master mix, polymerase, positive control, negative control, primers, buffers, loading dye, generuler etc. In order to develop a highly specific assay for recent H1N1 virus, one must understand the influenza viruses very deeply along the good knowledge of software tools, therefore we have decided to offer the following ready to use PCR kits based on gel agarose:
• 1. Kit K736 Ready to use PCR kit to detect H1N1 of swine origin of recent outbreak (single check) 100 reactions Euro 799,- manual
• This kit is in position to detect the H1N1 of swine origin of recent outbreak in samples. One can see clear beautiful bands in the gel agarose. This assay detect only H1N1 strains and there should be no cross reactions with H3N2, H5N1; H5N3, H7N7 strains and other strains. This is not available in literature. This is Genekam�s own development.
• 2. Kit K746 Ready to use PCR kit to detect H1N1 of swine origin circulating in swine (single check) 100 reactions Euro 799,- manual
• This assay should be used to detect H1N1 of swine origin in the samples of animals like pigs. This assay cannot detect recently outbreak H1N1 strain (so called Novel H1N1 of swine origin).

• 11. Kit K416 Ready to use PCR kit to detect recent outbreak H1N1 of human origin and reconfirming the N1 part of H1 100 reactions Euro 899,- manual
• This assay can be used to detect the H1N1 strain of recent outbreak swine flu virus and reconfirming the N1 part of this virus. This is two in one assay. This assay is Genekam´s own development.
• B). Genekam developed new solutions like our real time Fluhunter FR060 kit for Influenza A kit, which can detect specially H1N1 strains (also swine flu strains of Mexico, California, Regensburg, Hamburg, Rio de Janeiro, New York, Texas, Canada etc), H3N2 strains along with other strains of Influenza A like H5N1, H9 and others. 2. Similarly our old kits 203A (sold for last 4 years on the market) for Influenza A can also detect recent outbreak strains of H1N1 along with other influenza strains. 3. Our kits can be used to write the PhD thesis for human and veterinary medicine (including dental medicine). They can be used to compare the quality of the laboratories own assays. These kits offer excellent chance to do more research in the field of influenza viruses.
