RIDA®Prep Tissue Digestion Kit
Give Fungi Nowhere to Hide with RIDA®Prep Tissue Digestion Kit
The RIDA®Prep Tissue Digestion Kit is designed to optimise the preparation of keratin-rich specimens, including skin, hair and nail samples, prior to molecular testing. By improving the release of fungal DNA from challenging sample types, the kit enhances downstream nucleic acid extraction and supports reliable PCR performance. Developed for use with dermatophyte testing workflows, it provides laboratories with a simple and effective solution for high-quality sample preparation.

The buffer is optimised for use with the R-Biopharm Australia’s RIDA®Plex Dermatophytes and other Fungi 12 well panel, ensuring reliable compatibility and performance within established diagnostic workflows.
Optimised Preparation for Keratin-Rich Samples
Keratin-rich specimens such as skin, hair and nails can present unique challenges for molecular testing due to the difficulty of releasing nucleic acids from fungal organisms embedded within these tissues. The RIDA®Prep Tissue Digestion Kit provides an effective pre-treatment step that improves sample preparation before nucleic acid extraction, increasing DNA recovery and supporting consistent downstream PCR analysis. This optimised workflow helps laboratories achieve reliable molecular detection of dermatophytes and other clinically relevant fungi.
RIDA®Prep Tissue Digestion Buffer Workflow
Empowering users with convenient, time-saving workflows, RIDA®Prep is ideal when rapid and reliable results are critical to patient outcomes. RIDA®Prep Tissue Digestion Buffer features a simple A+B reagent workflow, including minimal hands-on time to vastly improve sample quality.
