Maestro Genetics EquiSTR
STR Genotyping Kit for Horses
EquiSTR is a reagent kit for Multiplex Analysis of 17 Equine Microsatellite Markers
The kit is designed for the molecular-genetic characterization of horses for the purpose of kinship analysis and DNA individualization of animals, based on multiplex PCR analysis of 17 loci containing short tandem repeats (STRs).

The EquiSTR kit is a multiplex test system comprising 17 STR loci. These markers form a standard panel recommended by the International Society of Animal Genetics (ISAG), all of the loci representing tandem dinucleotide repeats.

Kit Components:
  • Reaction strips with pre-aliquoted lyophilized PCR mixes (96 reactions)
  • Activator solution⁺
  • Deionized water
  • Control DNA
  • Internal size standard
Analyzed markers

Key Features:

  • Simultaneous analysis of 17 horse DNA individualizing markers

  • High resistance to PCR inhibitors

  • Markers recommended by the International Society of Animal Genetics (ISAG)

  • Transportation and storage at room temperature

  • Kit components are pre-aliquoted into tubes and lyophilized

Applications:

  • Parentage verification

  • Forensic and veterinary genetics

  • Genetic diversity and breeding program studies

  • Animal identification and traceability

Advantages for Laboratories:

  • Single-tube multiplex design saves time and reagents

  • Optimized primer set ensures accurate allele calling

  • Internal size standard provides precise fragment length determination

  • Easy integration into existing workflows

  • High reproducibility, validated according to ISAG standards

Maestro Genetics OviSTR
STR Genotyping Kit for Sheep
The kit is designed for molecular-genetic characterization of sheep for the purposes of kinship analysis and DNA individualization of animals, based on multiplex PCR analysis of 13 loci containing short tandem repeats (STRs).
The markers constitute a standard panel recommended by the International Society of Animal Genetics (ISAG).
The Maestro Genetics OviSTR kit is a next-generation multiplex test system based on a unique DNA normalizing amplification technology. The exceptionally wide analytical range of the OviSTR kit allows analysis to be performed without prior measurement and normalization of DNA concentration. The normalizing amplification technology ensures an optimal fluorescent signal level regardless of the amount of sample added to the reaction. Immediately after DNA extraction, the maximum amount of DNA preparation can be added to the amplification reaction, providing high assay sensitivity without the risk of “signal overload.”
