＜Precautions for measurement＞

For research use only

１．Because the LAMP reaction is very sensitive, any contamination withextremely minimum of the target gene or amplification product may result in
an incorrect result. To avoid such contamination, the use of this product andspecimen collection/nucleic acid extraction procedure should be performed inseparate rooms or in different areas by partitioning the laboratory area. Take
appropriate measures to prevent contamination including the use of clean
benches, gloves, and isolation gowns, as required.
２．Avoid the contamination by microorganisms or nucleic acid degrading enzymes（such as DNase and RNase）in handling this product.
３．Completely dissolve the dry reagent. Incomplete dissolution may result in poor
performance including low sensitivity. Do not leave more than 2 minutes instate of inverting reaction tubes.
４．Air bubbles may appear on the liquid level of the reaction solution after mixing
the sample solution. Remove them to prevent measurement errors byspinning down the reaction mixture.
５．Never open the tube cap after reaction. Particularly, carefully remove the tube
from the equipment so as not to open the cap after reaction. The contamination
with amplification products not only results in an erroneous decision, but also
causes the contamination of the measurement environment. Suchcontamination may persistently inhibit correct measurement unless it iscompletely eliminated.
６．Avoid handling amplification products using electrophoresis.

【Introduction】
The LAMP（Loop－mediated Isothermal Amplification）method is a geneamplification technique characterized by（1）isothermal gene amplification
reaction1）, 2）,（2）high specificity due to the use of 4 primers recognizing 6 regions,（3）high amplification efficiency resulting in amplification in a short time,（4）alarge amount of amplification product facilitating simple detection3）, 4）.
This product is a control reaction kit to be combined with Loopamp DNA
Amplification Reagent D（separately provided by Eiken Chemical）.

For 12 tests

１．Primer mix dBP（PM dBP）
２．Positive control dBP（PC dBP）
３．Negative control（NC）

0.16 mL × 1
0.16 mL × 1【Precautions for handling（hazard prevention）】【Instructions for use】

１．This product is not designed as an in vitro diagnostic（IVD）.
２．Take care not to directly gaze at the ultraviolet ray（sterilizing ray）from thelamp of the ultraviolet irradiation device for fluorescent/visual evaluation
because it is dangerous. When it is necessary to gaze at the lamp that is on,
make sure to do that through a glass plate or using wide eyeglasses or shield.
３．A minute amount of sodium azide is contained as a preservative in the primer
mix dBP（PM dBP）, positive control dBP（PC dBP）, and negative control（NC）. Take care to prevent sodium azide from entering the eyes or mouth orattaching to skin because it is toxic.
４．If the reagent accidentally enters the eyes or mouth or attaches to skin, immediately
rinse it off with a large amount of water and seek medical treatment, if needed.

１．Essential apparatus, equipment, and reagents, etc.

Refer to the instruction manual of Loopamp DNA Amplification Reagent Dry.

２．Reagent preparation method（follow the procedure of Loopamp DNA
Amplification Reagent Dry for details）.
１） Take a necessary number（total number of samples and controls）of the Dried
DNA Amplification Reagent. Immediately return the remaining reagent to theoriginal aluminum pack and seal it.
○ For control reaction（this product）＜Reagent＞
Primer mix dBP（PM dBP）

＜Dose＞
15.0μL/test【Precautions】

２） Mix the reagent（PM dBP）by inverting, tapping or using a vortex mixer for 1
second 3 times and spin down before using as the primer mix.（Operationon ice）.

１．This product should be stored as specified while avoiding freezing or suddenchange in temperature.
２．Keep the positive control dBP（PC dBP）away from other reagents.
３．Perform gene test with this product only under the supervision of experts withthe knowledge and experience of gene test because the lack of knowledge orexperience may result in incorrect judgment of the test result.
４．Eiken Chemical Co., Ltd. does not bear any responsibility for false judgment
or any consequential damage derived from the false judgment caused by
non-capability problems such as operation error.
５．Use this product within the expiration date.
６．Do not recycle the containers or accessories of this product or use them forother purposes.
７．Do not use it in combination other regents with the Loopamp DNA Amplification
Reagent D.

３．Operating procedure（Operation on ice）
Dispense 15.0μL of PM dBP to each reaction tube.
Add 10.0μL of the control to each tube.
（25.0μL in total as the LAMP reaction solution）
Use negative control（NC）for the negative control and positive controldBP（PC dBP）for positive control.
After closing the cap, invert the reaction tube to transfer the solution onto the cap,
and allow it to stand on ice for 2 minutes.

【Precautions for disposal】

Repeat the inversion 5 times and spin down the reaction mixture using an 8－
microtube simple centrifuge.

１．Appropriately dispose of tubes after reaction with the cap closed by putting
them in double plastic bags that can be incinerated or sealed. To prevent
dispersion of amplification products, do not autoclave tubes before disposal.
２．The constituent reagent tube is mainly made of polypropylene（PP）. The kit
case is mainly made of paper.
３．Dispose of this product, containers, and materials before or after use on theresponsibility of the laboratories in compliance with applicable laws on waste
disposal and cleaning and water pollution prevention law.
