Tissue Samples: Weigh approximately 0.1 g of tissue, add 1 mL of Extraction Buffer, homogenize on ice, and then centrifuge at 12000 rpm, 4°C for 5 minutes. Collect the supernatant for assay.Note: If increasing the sample amount, use a ratio of 1:5 to 1:10 (tissue weight (g) : Extraction Buffer volume (mL)) for extraction.2. Bacterial/Cell Samples: Collect bacteria or cells into a centrifuge tube by centrifugation and discard the supernatant. Take approximately 5 million bacteria or cells, add 1 mL of Extraction Buffer, and disrupt using ultrasound on ice (power 200 W, ultrasonicate for 3 s, interval 10 s, repeat 30 times). Centrifuge at 12000 rpm, 4°C for 10 minutes. Collect the supernatant and keep it on ice for assay.Note: If increasing the sample amount, use a ratio of 500-1000 (x10⁴ cells) : 1 (mL Extraction Buffer) for extraction.Assay Procedure1. Preheat the UV spectrophotometer for 30 minutes. Set the wavelength to 340 nm and the temperature to 25°C. Zero the instrument with distilled water.2. Thaw all reagents to room temperature (25°C).3. In a 1 mL quartz cuvette (1 cm light path), add sequentially:Reagent (µL)Test TubeSample80Reagent 140Reagent 220Reagent 320Reagent 4600Mix well and incubate at room temperature (25°C) for 10 minutes.4. Add Reagent (µL)Test TubeReagent 5205. Mix gently. At room temperature (25°C), read the absorbance at 340 nm at 30 seconds (A1) and then again after 10 minutes (A2). Calculate ΔA = A1 - A2.Notes:1. If ΔA is close to zero, the reaction time can be appropriately extended to 20 minutes before reading A2. The modified reaction time must be substituted into the calculation formula. Alternatively, increase the sample volume appropriately (e.g., 100 µL, with a corresponding decrease in Reagent 4 volume). The modified sample volume must be substituted into the calculation formula.2. If the decreasing trend is unstable, read the absorbance every 20 seconds and select a linear decreasing period for calculation. The corresponding ΔA value should be substituted into the calculation formula.3. If the initial absorbance A1 is too high (e.g., >2, as in deeply pigmented plant leaves), appropriately reduce the sample volume. The modified sample volume must be substituted into the calculation formula. Alternatively, add a small amount of activated carbon to the sample, mix, let stand for 5 min, then centrifuge at 12000 rpm, 4°C for 10 min, and use the supernatant for detection.4. If ΔA is greater than 0.5, reduce the reaction time (e.g., to 5 min) or reduce the sample volume (e.g., to 20 µL). The modified reaction time (T) and sample volume (V1) must be substituted into the calculation formula.PGK Activity Calculation1.

Purpose of use: This reagent kit is used to determine the content of lactose in serum, plasma, and related liquid samples.Experimental principle:This kit applies enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to determine the level of lactose in the sample. Purified lactose antibodies were coated on a microplate to produce solid-phase antibodies. Lactose was added to the microplate of the coated monoclonal antibody, along with HRP labeled lactose antigens, to compete for binding. After thorough washing, the substrate TMB was added for colorimetry. The depth of sample color is negatively correlated with the content of lactose in the sample. Measure the absorbance (OD value) at a wavelength of 450nm using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader, and calculate the content of lactose in the sample through a standard curve.Kit composition:130times concentrated washing solution20ml×1 bottle8.1Standard S1（80µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle2Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay6ml×1 bottle8.2Standard S2（40µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle3Enzyme labeling coated plate96 holes x 1 pieces8.3Standard S3（20µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle4Color reagent A solution6ml×1 bottle8.4Standard S4（10µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle5Color developer B solution6ml×1 bottle8.5Standard S5（5µg/L）0.5ml×1bottle6Stop solution6ml×1 bottle9Instructions1 copy7Sample Diluent6ml×1 bottle10Microplate Sealers2 sheetsSpecimen requirements:1. Specimen processing:(1) After collecting the water sample, it is repeatedly freeze-thawed three times at -20 ℃, and then filtered through glass fiber for future reference(2) The tissue samples should be extracted using butanol: methanol: water (5:25:70 V: V: V), or extracted according to relevant literature. The experiment should be conducted as soon as possible after extraction. If the experiment cannot be conducted immediately, the specimen can be stored at -20 ℃ for future reference2. Samples containing NaN3 cannot be detected as NaN3 inhibits the activity of horseradish peroxidase (HRP).Operation steps:1. Sample addition: Set up standard wells, blank wells (blank control wells do not include samples and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reagents, the other steps are the same), and sample wells to be tested. Add 50 microliters to the standard well on the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) plate, and first add 40 diluents to the sample well to be tested µ l. Then add 10 more samples to be tested µ L (The final dilution of the sample is 5 times). Add the sample to the bottom of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) plate well, avoiding touching the well wall as much as possible. Gently shake and mix well.2. Enzyme addition: Add 50 enzyme labeled reagents to each well µ l. Excluding blank holes.3. Warm incubation: Seal the plate with a sealing film and incubate at 37 ℃ for 60 minutes.4. Solution preparation: Dilute 30 times the concentrated washing solution with distilled water and set aside for later use5. Washing: Carefully remove the sealing film, discard the liquid, shake dry, fill each well with washing solution, let it stand for 30 seconds, then discard. Repeat this process 5 times and pat dry.6. Color development: Add color development agent A50 to each well first µ l. Add color developer B50 again µ l. Gently shake and mix well, and develop color at 37 ℃ in the dark for 15 minutes7. Termination: Add 50% termination fluid to each hole µ l. Terminate the reaction (at this point, the blue color immediately turns yellow).8. Measurement: Zero the blank hole and sequentially measure the absorbance (OD value) of each hole at a wavelength of 450nm. The measurement should be conducted within 15 minutes after adding the termination solution.Calculation:Draw a standard curve on a coordinate paper with the concentration of the standard substance as the x-axis and the OD value as the y-axis. Based on the OD value of the sample, determine the corresponding concentration from the standard curve; Multiply it by the dilution factor; Alternatively, a linear regression equation can be used to calculate the standard curve using the concentration and OD value of the standard substance. The OD value of the sample can be substituted into the equation to calculate the sample concentration, which is then multiplied by the dilution factor to obtain the actual concentration of the sample.Notes:1. The kit should be balanced at room temperature for 15-30 minutes before use when taken out from the cold storage environment. If the enzyme coated plate is not used up after opening, the Flat noodles should be stored in a sealed bag.2. Concentrated detergent may precipitate crystals. When diluted, it can be heated in a water bath to aid in dissolution. Washing does not affect the results.3. A sampler should be used for each step of sample addition, and its accuracy should be regularly calibrated to avoid experimental errors. It is best to control the sample addition time within 5 minutes. If there are a large number of specimens, it is recommended to use a firing gun for sample addition.4. Please make a standard curve at the same time as each measurement, preferably with a re hole. If the content of the substance to be tested in the sample is too high (the OD value of the sample is greater than the OD value of the first well of the standard well), please dilute the sample diluent by a certain multiple (n times) before measurement. When calculating, please multiply the total dilution multiple (x n x 5).5. The sealing film is only for one-time use to avoid cross contamination.6. Please store the substrate in dark.7. Strictly follow the instructions and determine the test results based on the reading of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader8. All samples, washing liquids, and various waste should be treated as infectious substances.9. The components of this reagent with different batch numbers shall not be mixed.Detection range:two µ G/L-90 µ G/L...

Avoid freeze/thaw cycle Product Introduction:This kit uses the principle of SYBR Green I chimeric fluorescent dye method for miRNA fluorescence quantitative PCR detection. The kit includes 2 x miRNA qPCR Mixture and Reverse Primer required for detection. 2 x miRNA qPCR Mixture is a new generation pre mixed form of fluorescence quantitative PCR detection reagent specially developed for miRNA quantitative detection. The fluorescent dye SYBR Green I contained in it can bind to all double stranded DNA, making the product suitable for detecting different target sequences without the need to synthesize specific labeled probes. The GoldStar Taq DNA polymerase is a chemically modified and highly efficient thermal starter enzyme, coupled with a unique buffer system, which enhances reaction specificity, sensitivity, and enables accurate quantification of miRNA over a wider range. The 2x miRNA qPCR Mixture contains ROX dye and is suitable for fluorescence quantitative PCR instruments that require ROX as a calibration dye.Note: This kit must be used in conjunction with the miRNA cDNA first strand synthesis kit.Self prepared experimental materials: qPCR upstream primer.Forward Primer design principles:1. Follow the most common principles of primer design.2.Based on mature miRNA sequences, replacing U with T is the most basic and simplest design method.3.The Tm value of the downstream primer provided in the reagent kit is 63.6 ℃, and the Tm value of the upstream primer should be designed to be around 63.6 ℃ as much as possible.4. If the Tm value of the primer directly designed according to principle "2" is too low, several bases (preferably G or C bases) can be added to the 5 'end of the primer; One or several A bases can also be added at the 3 'end; Alternatively, both the 5 'and 3' ends can be modified simultaneously.5.If the Tm value of a primer designed directly according to principle "2" is too high, several bases can be removed from the 5 'or 3' end of the primer.Notes:1. Before using the reagent, please gently mix it upside down to avoid foaming, and use it after a brief centrifugation.2. The amount of miRNA first strand cDNA added should not exceed 10% of the volume of Real time PCR.3. For special detection systems, high content of cDNA templates can easily lead to non-specific amplification. Dilute cDNA appropriately (10 or 100 times dilution) based on the abundance of detected miRNAs.4. The 2x miRNA qPCR Mixture in this product contains SYBR Green I and ROX dyes. When storing this product or preparing PCR reaction solution, strong light exposure should be avoided.5. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of this product. Repeated freezing and thawing may cause a decrease in product performance. This product can be stored at -20 ℃ for long-term storage.
