PathoSEEK® Hop Latent Viroid Assay v2 Kit (200 rxns)

The PathoSEEK® Hop Latent Viroid Detection Assay v2 Kit is a reverse-transcriptase quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR or QRT-PCR) assay that screens for the presence of Hop Latent Viroid. This “kit” format packages the qPCR assay and Amplification Mix (RT-qPCR enzyme) together in quantities sufficient for 200 reactions for easier ordering.

Hop latent viroid (HLVd) is a single-stranded, circular infectious RNA that is completely dependent on its host plant’s metabolism for replication. As the name suggests, HLVd occurs worldwide in hops, but it can also infect hop’s relative, cannabis. See more information and resources about HLVd here.

Like all PathoSEEK® assays, cannabis control is multiplexed in and utilizes the HEX optical channel.

This product is used with:

• Pure Prep or Quick Lysis DNA Lysis Reagents
• HLVd Positive Control

This product requires the following optical channels on your qPCR instrument.

• Hop Latent Viroid is on the FAM channel
• Cannabis Internal Control is on the HEX channel
