Crystal Universal Reporters
Crystal Universal Reporters generate fluorescent signals when activated during a Crystal Digital PCR reaction using target-specific Crystal Flex Probe detection chemistry.
Their universal design allows them to be used with any Crystal Digital PCR Assay, providing a modular approach to detection. This means you can use the same set of Crystal Universal Reporters to detect and quantify all targets of interest, regardless of the specific assay or the degree of multiplexing.
Select the Crystal Universal Reporter compatible with the Crystal Digital PCR® Assay of interest, either in a 200 or a 1000 Ruby Chip reaction format.

naica multiplex PCR MIX (TaqMan® compatible)
The naica multiplex PCR MIX is a ready-to-use two-component solution specially formulated for optimal TaqMan fluorescent probe-based Crystal Digital PCR and high multiplexing capacity.
-The stably incorporated internal blue channel reference dye facilitates reaction assembly while ensuring reliable partition detection.
-The unique 10X concentration liberates a reaction volume that can instead be utilized by additional sample input, probes, or primers, which increases multiplexing capacity and provides superior detection sensitivity for low concentration samples and rare targets.
