Product IntroductionThe Quick Ligation Reaction Kit allows ligation of DNA sticky or flush ends in 5 minutes at room temperature (25°C). The kit contains Quick T4 DNA Ligase and 2×Quick Ligation Reaction Buffer optimized for fast and efficient DNA ligation.The ligation efficiency of Quick Ligation is equivalent to 1 hour of conventional ligation with T4 DNA Ligase. The Quick Ligation products can be used directly in routine bacterial transformation experiments.matters needing attention1. This kit enables most of the linkage reactions to reach the reaction endpoint within 5 minutes or less at 25°C. Increasing the reaction time will not enhance the reaction efficiency. If you use the rapid connection reaction after 1 hour, the conversion efficiency will be significantly reduced; if the rapid connection reaction at 25 ℃ overnight, the conversion efficiency will drop to 75%.2. 2×Quick Ligation Reaction Buffer contains ATP, which should be thawed on ice and mixed thoroughly before use. It is recommended to freeze the buffer in small tubes for the first time, so as to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, which will affect the efficiency of DNA ligation.3. Since T4 DNA Ligase contains glycerol, which is sticky and easy to hang on the wall, it is recommended to collect the liquid to the bottom of the tube by centrifugation for a short period of time before use, and the tip of the lance should not go too deep into the liquid surface when taking samples to avoid sticking to the tip of the lance and causing losses.4. If the quick ligation product is used for electrotransformation, the PEG in the quick ligation reaction system will affect the efficiency of electrotransformation, and it is recommended to use a centrifugal column to purify the ligation product from DNA before electrotransformation.Usage1. The reaction solution was prepared according to the following system:*The amount of Insert DNA used: the molar ratio of Vector DNA and Insert DNA is generally 1:3-1:8, and the appropriate molar ratio of Vector DNA and Insert DNA can be selected according to the experimental situation.Calculation of DNA molar number: DNA molar number (nmol)=DNA mass (ng)/( 660daltons x number of inserted DNA bases bp).2. mix gently and centrifuge briefly. react at 25°C for 5 minutes.Note: The reaction time should not exceed 15 minutes, otherwise the connection efficiency will be reduced.3. Do not perform heat inactivation reactions. Centrifuge instantly and collect the solution from the wall to the bottom of the tube.Note: Heat inactivation significantly reduces transformation efficiency due to the presence of PEG in the buffer.4. After the reaction, store the DNA ligation product at 0-4℃, and then carry out transformation experiments; you can also store the DNA ligation product at -20℃.Note: When transforming by chemical method, do not add more than 10% of the volume of the receptor cell for the ligation product.5. Heat shock the ligation product to transform 50 µl of receptor cells or take 1-2 µl of ligation product to electroshock transform 50 µl of receptor cells.Note: 1) When transforming by chemical method, do not add more than 10% of the volume of the receptor cell for the ligation product.(2) If the quick ligation product is used for electrotransformation, it is recommended to use a centrifugal column to purify the ligation product from DNA before electrotransformation because the PEG in the quick ligation reaction system will affect the efficiency of electrotransformation... Read More | Annexin V ( annexin-V ) is a Ca2 + dependent phospholipid binding protein with a molecular weight of 35-36 KD, which can selectively bind to phosphatidylserine ( PS ). Phosphatidylserine ( PS ) is mainly distributed in the inner side of the cell membrane, that is, the side adjacent to the cytoplasm.Annexin V ( annexin-V ) is a Ca2 + dependent phospholipid binding protein with a molecular weight of 35-36 KD, which can selectively bind to phosphatidylserine ( PS ). Phosphatidylserine ( PS ) is mainly distributed in the inner side of the cell membrane, that is, the side adjacent to the cytoplasm. In the early stage of apoptosis, different types of cells will turn phosphatidylserine out to the cell surface and expose to the extracellular environment. At this time, using Annexin V labeled with fluorescent protein PE, that is, Annexin V-PE, combined with phosphatidylserine ( PS ), the eversion of phosphatidylserine, an important feature of apoptosis, can be directly detected by flow cytometry. Normal cells will not be stained by Annexin V-PE, apoptotic or necrotic cells will be stained by Annexin V-PE. Annexin V-PE can be used in combination with partially non-permeable nuclear dye ( 7-AAD / PI ) to distinguish cells at different stages of apoptosis. RedNucleus II provided in this kit is a far-red dye that belongs to an anthraquinone compound and cannot penetrate the intact cell membrane of living cells and early apoptotic cells. It is non-permeable, but can quickly stain the nucleus / dsDNA in dead and permeable cells. RedNucleus II is an ideal substitute for propidium iodide ( PI ) and 7-AAD.Combined with Annexin V-PE, it has better spectral characteristics without compensation regulation : it is not excited by ultraviolet light and does not overlap with PE / PE homologues, so it can be combined with FITC, PE and purple fluorescent dyes for multicolor analysis. When combined with Annexin V-PE, RedNucleus II was excluded from living cells and early apoptotic cells, while late apoptotic cells and dead cells were double-positive for Annexin V-PE and RedNucleus II. Annexin V-PE / RedNucleus II apoptosis detection kit can be detected by flow cytometry or other fluorescence detection equipment.

Experimental design: Blank tube: Negative control group cells, without Annexin V-PE/RedNucleus II. Used to regulate voltage.Single staining tube: Positive control group cells were treated with Annexin V-PE alone/RedNucleus II alone. Used for adjusting compensation.Detection tube: Add Annexin V-PE/RedNucleus II to the processed cells. After adjusting the voltage compensation using blank tubes and single dye tubes, obtain the required flow data.2. Collect cells(1) For suspended cells:a. After inducing cell apoptosis, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, collect the cells, gently resuspend the cells in PBS, and count them.Note: PBS resuspension cannot be omitted. The process of PBS resuspension also serves to wash cells, ensuring the subsequent binding of Annexin V-PE.b. Take 5 × 104-1 × 105 resuspended cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, and add 100 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer to gently resuspend the cells. c. Add 5 µ L Annexin V-PE and mix gently.d. Add 5 µ L of RedNucleus II staining solution and mix gently.e. Incubate at room temperature (20-25 º C) in the dark for 15 minutes. Aluminum foil can be used to avoid light. During the incubation process, cells can be resuspended 2-3 times to improve staining efficiency.(2) For adherent cells:a. Suck out the cell culture medium into a suitable centrifuge tube, wash the adherent cells with PBS once, and add an appropriate amount of trypsin cell digestion solution (without EDTA) to digest the cells. Incubate at room temperature until gently blowing can remove the trypsin cell digestion solution when the adherent cells are blown down. Overdigestion of pancreatic enzymes should be avoided.Note: For adherent cells, the trypsin digestion step is crucial. If the trypsin digestion time is too short, cells need to be blown hard to detach, which can easily cause damage to the cell membrane and lead to false positives of cell necrosis; If the digestion time is too long, it can also cause cell membrane damage and false positives of cell necrosis, and even affect the binding of phosphatidylserine and Annexin V-PE on the cell membrane, thereby interfering with the detection of cell apoptosis.b. Add the cell culture medium collected in the previous step, gently blow down the cells, transfer them to a centrifuge tube, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, collect the cells, gently resuspend the cells in PBS and count them.Note: Adding the cell culture medium from the previous step is very important. On the one hand, it can collect cells that have already been suspended and undergone apoptosis or necrosis. On the other hand, the serum in the cell culture medium can effectively inhibit or neutralize residual trypsin. The residual trypsin will digest and degrade the subsequently added Annexin V-PE, leading to staining failure.c. Take 5 × 104-1 × 105 resuspended cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, and add 100 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer to gently resuspend the cells. d. Add 5 µ L Annexin V-PE and mix gently.e. Add 5 µ L of RedNucleus II staining solution and mix gently.f. Incubate at room temperature (20-25 º C) in the dark for 15 minutes. Aluminum foil can be used to avoid light. During the incubation process, cells can be resuspended 2-3 times to improve staining efficiency.3. Result analysis:(1) Flow cytometry detection:a. After incubation, 400 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer can be directly added to resuspend the cells, and immediately detected on the machine. Annexin V-PE is excited by 488 nm/566 nm laser, and the fluorescence emission spectrum is detected at 578 nm (BL2 (FL2)/YL1 channel), while the RedNucleus II channel emission spectrum is approximately at 695 nm (RL1 (FL4) channel).b. On the scatter plot of the bivariate flow cytometer, live cells are shown in the lower left quadrant, which is (Annexin V-PE -/RedNucleus II -); The lower right quadrant represents early apoptotic cells, which are (Annexin V-PE+/RedNucleus II -); The upper right quadrant represents necrotic and late stage apoptotic cells, which are (Annexin V-PE+/RedNucleus II+); The upper left quadrant displays naked nuclear cells, which are (Annexin V-PE -/RedNucleus II+).(2) Fluorescence microscopy detection:a. Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, collect cells, and gently resuspend them in 400 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer. Transfer the cells to a 96 well plate and settle for a moment or perform cell smear, then observe under a fluorescence microscope.b. Annexin V-PE is compatible with PE filters. RedNucleus II can use a far red long pass filter.Matters needing attention：1. please centrifuge the product to the bottom of the tube immediately before use, and then conduct subsequent experiments. 2. to reduce the process of apoptosis, the incubation process can be operated on ice, but the incubation time should be extended to at least 30 min. 3. as apoptosis is a rapid process, it is recommended that samples be analyzed within 1 h after staining. 4. for adherent cells, digestion is a key step. If there are floating cells when adherent cells induce apoptosis, the floating cells and adherent cells should be collected and stained. Handle adherent cells with care to avoid artificial damage to cells. The trypsin digestion time is too short, and the cells need to be blown hard to fall off, which is easy to cause damage to the cell membrane and excessive intake of rednucleus II; If the digestion time is too long, the cell membrane is also prone to damage, and even affect the binding of phosphatidylserine and annexin v-pe on the cell membrane. When digesting, spread pancreatin on the bottom of the well plate, fully contact the pancreatin with the cells when shaking gently, then pour out most of the pancreatin, use the remaining small amount of pancreatin to digest for a period of time, and terminate when the gap between cells increases and the bottom of the bottle is spotted. Try not to use EDTA in the digestive juice, which will affect the binding of annexin V to PS. 5. after the adherent cells are digested with trypsin, it is recommended to stain after recovering in the optimal culture conditions and medium for about 30 min to avoid false positives. 6. in order to avoid losing cells when washing cells, you can use a large tip over a small tip to aspirate. 7. the optimal concentration of dye is determined by the specific experimental requirements. 8. fluorescent dyes have quenching problems. Please try to avoid light during storage and use to slow down fluorescence quenching. 9. for your safety and health, please wear experimental clothes and disposable gloves.Scope of application：Early apoptosis detection, annexin V Kit...

Suitable for extracting total RNA with improved purity from paraffin embedded tissues or sections less than 30mg. This kit does not require the use of phenol/chloroform extraction or isopropanol precipitation, and can complete the extraction of multiple samples within one hour. This product uses specially optimized lysis solution and protease K to release RNA from formalin fixed or tissue slice samples without overnight operation; After digestion, the sample is incubated at a higher temperature to remove the inhibitory effect caused by formalin cross-linking, effectively releasing RNA from tissue slices and avoiding endangering RNA integrity; The optimized buffer system allows RNA in the lysis solution to specifically bind to the silica gel adsorption membrane, while other pollutants can flow through the membrane; It can be effectively removed through rinsing steps, and the washed RNA can be directly used for experiments such as RT-PCR, Real Time PCR, and Western blot analysis.Self prepared reagents: anhydrous ethanol (newly opened or dedicated for RNA extraction), 10mM PBS (pH 7.4).Preparation and important precautions before the experiment1. Add 0.625ml Protein K Storage Buffer to Protein K to dissolve it and store at -20 ℃. The prepared Protein K should not be left at room temperature for a long time to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which may affect its activity.2. To prevent RNase pollution, attention should be paid to the following aspects:1) Use RNase free plastic products and gun heads to avoid cross contamination.2) Glassware should be dry baked at a high temperature of 180 ℃ for 4 hours before use, while plastic containers can be soaked in 0.5M NaOH for 10 minutes, thoroughly rinsed with water, and then sterilized under high pressure.3) Prepare the solution using water without RNase.4) Operators should wear disposable masks and gloves, and change gloves frequently during the experiment.3. After obtaining the sample, it should be fixed in 4% -10% formalin as soon as possible, with a suitable fixation time of 14-24 hours. Excessive time can lead to RNA breakage and affect downstream experiments.4. Ensure that the sample before embedding is thoroughly dehydrated, as residual formalin will inhibit the action of Protein K.5. Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer RW2 according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.Before use, please check if there is any crystallization or precipitation in Buffer GTL, Buffer GL, and Buffer DS. If there is any crystallization or precipitation, please dissolve Buffer GTL, Buffer GL, and Buffer DS again in a 56 ℃ water bath.Operation steps1. Sample processing1a. Paraffin embedded sample: Use a surgical knife to trim off excess paraffin from the tissue block, expose the tissue, and cut into 5-10 µ m thin slices.Attention: If the surface of the sample has already been exposed to air, please discard 2-3 pieces that come into contact with the air and do not use them.1b. Samples in fixed solutions such as formalin: Take approximately 20mg of the sample, cut it into small pieces, place it in a centrifuge tube, and add 500 µ 10mM PBS (PH7.4), vortex oscillation, centrifugation at 12000 rpm (~13400 × g) for 1 minute, discard the supernatant, repeat 3 times, and proceed directly to step 3.2. Choose option A or option B to remove paraffinOption AA1. Take approximately 1 × 1cm2 of slices (4-5 slices in total) and place them in a centrifuge tube (prepared by oneself), then add 500 slices µ L Buffer DS, vortex oscillation for 10 seconds. Incubate at 56 ° C for 3 minutes.Centrifuge at A2.12000 rpm for 2 minutes, be careful to discard the supernatant and avoid attracting sediment.Option BB1. Take approximately 4-5 slices of approximately 1 × 1 cm2 and place them in a centrifuge tube (self prepared). Add 1ml of xylene, cover the tube tightly, and vortex for 10 seconds.B2.Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 2 minutes, be careful to remove the supernatant and avoid removing sediment.B3. Add 1ml of anhydrous ethanol, vortex and shake well. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 2 minutes, discard the supernatant, and be careful not to absorb or discard the sediment.B4. Open the tube cover and incubate at room temperature or up to 37 ° C for 10 minutes until there is no ethanol residue.3. Add 150µ L Buffer GTL, resuspended precipitation; Join 10µl Protein K, vortex oscillation mixing.4.Incubate at 56 ℃ for 15 minutes until the sample is completely dissolved. Incubate at 80 ℃ for 15 minutes. Short centrifugation allows the solution on the tube wall to be collected to the bottom of the tube.Note: 1) The purpose of this step is to repair nucleic acids denatured by formaldehyde. Incubating at a high temperature or for too long may cause RNA breakage, resulting in RNA fragments.2) The sample incubated at 56 ℃ can be placed at room temperature until the temperature of the water or dry bath reaches 80 ℃, and then the sample can be incubated at 80 ℃.5. Place on ice for 3 minutes, centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 15 minutes, transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube, be careful not to suck sediment.6. Add 320 to the supernatant µ L Buffer GL, vortex oscillation thoroughly mixed.7. Join 720 µ Mix anhydrous ethanol thoroughly with vortex oscillation.Attention: After adding anhydrous ethanol, there may be a small amount of precipitate precipitation, but it does not affect subsequent operations.8. Add all the solutions obtained in step 7 to the spin columns RS that have been loaded into the collection tube. If the solution cannot be added at once, it can be transferred multiple times. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Optional steps: If genomic DNA needs to be removed, the following steps can be followeda. Add 350 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer RW1, centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid, and place the adsorption column back into the recovery manifold.b.
