This kit simplifies isolation of DNA from tissues or cells with solution based procedure. Animal tissue (spliced and digested) is subjected to lysis by Proteinase K in a chaotropic salt solution. Following lysis, is the binding of DNA with chilled ethanol to yield purified DNA using HiElute Miniprep Spin Column. Rapid wash steps remove trace salt and protein contaminants resulting in the elution of high quality DNA in the Elution Buffer (ET) provided with the kit.HiMedia's Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) Detection Kit (Extraction and Real‐Time Probe Based PCR Combo Kit) is designed to detect the 18S ribosomal RNA gene of EHP in FAM channel and Internal Control in HEX channel in a single tube reaction. The kit allows sensitive and specific detection of EHP in a single tube reaction.


Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) has become a major concern for the shrimp farming industry. It is an emerging microsporidian parasite for penaeid shrimp, which has been associated with growth retardation and significant losses in farmed shrimp. EHP has been found in several shrimp farming countries in Asia including Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and China, and is reported to be associated with growth retardation in farmed shrimp. It is transmitted directly from shrimp to shrimp by the oral route. EHP has been found in the tubules in the shrimp’s hepatopancreas and associated with damages in the organ which eventually may lead to malnutrition and growth retardation in shrimp.
