The PR1400-FE-S is the trial / sample-size SKU of the Accuris Fast Extraction PCR Kit family — 16-reaction pack for first-use evaluation of the streamlined extraction + PCR workflow before committing to the larger production-scale packs (PR1400-FE-100 at $128 / PR1400-FE-400 at $437). At $27 list price ($1.69 per reaction), the sample SKU enables labs to validate the Fast Extraction workflow on their specific sample type and PCR target — important given the brochure-corpus gap (FQ-017) makes spec-based evaluation difficult.
Author confidence note (MEDIUM, FQ-017 pattern): The PR1400 family is not in the available brochure corpus; first-order purchase of the sample is the recommended approach to validate workflow fit before scaling.
Key Specifications
| SKU | PR1400-FE-S |
| Type | Sample / trial pack — Accuris Fast Extraction PCR Kit |
| Pack quantity | 16 reactions |
| Workflow | Streamlined extraction + PCR (no intermediate DNA-purification step) |
| Per-reaction cost (sample) | $1.69 (premium over production-pack per-reaction) |
| Production-scale follow-on | PR1400-FE-100 ($128, $1.28/rxn), PR1400-FE-400 ($437, $1.09/rxn) |
| Sister sample SKU | PR1400-FLS-S (Lysis Solution standalone sample, 16 reactions, $13) |
| List price | $27 |
Why a 16-Reaction Sample (vs Smaller Polymerase Samples)
The PR1400-FE-S 16-reaction sample reflects the multi-step workflow validation that Fast Extraction requires:
| Validation step | Reactions used |
| No-template control | 1–2 |
| Positive control template | 1–2 |
| Sample-type variation tests (multiple sample types if applicable) | 4–8 |
| Extraction-protocol parameter optimization (lysis time, temperature) | 3–4 |
| Replicate confirmation | 2–4 |
| Total | 16 |
A 16-reaction sample supports a complete first-use validation of both the extraction step (sample-type and lysis-protocol confirmation) and the PCR step (target-amplification confirmation) — sufficient for an informed bulk-procurement decision.
Sample-vs-Component Comparison
The PR1400 family also includes a standalone Lysis Solution sample (PR1400-FLS-S, 16 reactions, $13) — labs can compare:
| Sample | Pack | Price | Per-reaction | What it validates |
| PR1400-FE-S (this product) | 16 reactions | $27 | $1.69 | Complete kit workflow (lysis + master mix) |
| PR1400-FLS-S | 16 reactions | $13 | $0.81 | Lysis Solution standalone (operator pairs with own master mix) |
Pick the FE-S sample when: evaluating the complete kit workflow with Accuris-recommended master mix. Pick the FLS-S sample when: the lab already has a master mix preference and only needs to evaluate the lysis chemistry.
Application Profile
Fast Extraction PCR Kit first-time evaluation — labs evaluating the Accuris Fast Extraction workflow for the first time use the sample to validate fit before bulk procurement.
Sample-type protocol validation — labs validating which sample types work in the kit's lysis chemistry (the brochure-corpus gap means sample-type compatibility needs first-order confirmation).
Workflow-timing validation — labs confirming that the streamlined extraction + PCR workflow delivers the time-savings promise on their specific lab setup.
Sales / training samples — sales reps and training programs use the sample for hands-on customer demonstrations.
Educational laboratory PCR exercises — teaching labs introducing streamlined extraction + PCR workflow concepts.
Ordering & Configuration
Single-use sample SKU. The 16-reaction pack supports a meaningful validation run; not intended for routine production use.
Pair with sequence-specific primers and template sample. The kit includes the lysis chemistry + master mix; operator supplies primers and the sample.
Confirm at quote: Fast Extraction PCR evaluation intent (vs PR1400-FE-100 / -400 production-pack ordering or PR1400-FLS-S standalone Lysis Solution sample), workflow sample-type confirmation, and lead time.
Warranty: Per Accuris standard reagent terms — confirm at quote.
Accuris PR1400 Fast Extraction sample pair:
- PR1400-FE-S (this product) — Complete kit sample, 16 reactions ($27, $1.69/rxn)
- PR1400-FLS-S — Lysis Solution standalone sample, 16 reactions ($13, $0.81/rxn)
Pick the FE-S complete-kit sample for full workflow evaluation; pick the FLS-S sample if evaluating the lysis chemistry standalone.
