PowerPlex ESI 16 Fast System

The PowerPlex ESX 16 and ESI 16 Fast Systems, based on five-dye technology, co-amplify the ENFSI-recommended loci.

The PowerPlex ESX 16 and ESI 16 Fast Systems meet the ENFSI recommendations for DNA profile sharing across Europe and allow co-amplification and detection of D3S1358, D8S1179, D18S51, D21S11, FGA, TH01, vWA, D2S441, D10S1248, D22S1045, D1S1656, D12S391, D2S1338, D16S539, D19S433, SE33 and Amelogenin. Rapid cycling technology enables amplification to be done in less than 50 minutes. These kits are available in multiple formats, including the option to detect SE33, to accommodate various requirements or preferences. Additionally, the kits have superior tolerance to common inhibitors and superior sensitivity to obtain full profiles from low-level DNA and are robust enough to genotype degraded DNA samples through the use of miniSTR loci. This system is compatible with ABI PRISM 310, 3100 and 3100-Avant Genetic Analyzers and Applied Biosystems 3130, 3130xl, 3500 and 3500xL Genetic Analyzers.
