Achieve Superior Results in Less Time
The PowerPlex® ESX 17 and ESI 17 Fast Systems are designed for human identification applications including forensic analysis, relationship testing and research use. These kits can be used for both casework and database samples, simplifying workflows. These systems meet the ENFSI recommendations for DNA profile sharing across Europe and allow co-amplification and detection of D3S1358, D8S1179, D18S51, D21S11, FGA, TH01, vWA, D2S441, D10S1248, D22S1045, D1S1656, D12S391, D2S1338, D16S539, D19S433, SE33 and Amelogenin.
These systems provide all materials necessary to amplify STR regions of human genomic DNA, including a hot-start thermostable DNA polymerase. Rapid cycling technology enables amplification to be done in less than 50 minutes. Additionally, the kits have superior tolerance to common inhibitors and superior sensitivity to obtain full profiles from low-level DNA and are robust enough to genotype degraded DNA samples through the use of miniSTR loci.
These two STR systems can be used to complement each other when analyzing degraded or challenging samples to maximize recovery of allelic information from as many loci as possible and allow confirmation of results obtained with the other system.
This system is compatible with Spectrum and Spectrum Compact CE Systems and Applied Biosystems® 3130, 3130xl, 3500 and 3500xL Genetic Analyzers.
Promega forensic products are manufactured in alignment with the ISO 18385 standard.This standard ensures minimal risk of human DNA contamination for products used to collect, store and analyze biological materials for forensic purposes. Learn more.
PowerPlex® ESX 17 Fast System
The PowerPlex® ESX 17 Fast System amplifies the loci recommended by the European Network of Forensic Science Institutes (ENFSI) and European DNA Profiling Group (EDNAP) as mini-STRs (<125bp; D2S441, D10S1248 and D22S1045) or midi-STRs (125–185bp; D1S1656 and D12S391).
PowerPlex® ESI 17 Fast System
The PowerPlex® ESI 17 Fast System is designed with six of the original seven European Standard Set (ESS) loci (D3S1358, D18S51, TH01, vWA, D8S1179 and the more common FGA alleles) along with D16S539 and D19S433 as smaller amplicons (<250bp), while the loci recommended by the European Network of Forensic Science Institutes (ENFSI) and European DNA Profiling Group (EDNAP) (D1S1656, D2S441, D10S1248, D12S391 and D22S1045) are present as larger amplicons.
Improved Sensitivity for More Meaningful Analyses
The PowerPlex® ESI and ESX Fast Systems reliably produce complete STR profiles from as little as 100pg of human DNA, and the majority of alleles can be called with as little as 30pg of DNA.
