Fetch:Plant material: take about 10 mg of sample in a centrifuge tube (provided); Animal material: take about 10 mg of sample in a centrifuge tube (provided);Bacteria: Take 200-800 µL of bacteria in good growth condition in a centrifuge tube (self-provided) and collect the bacteria.2. Add 200 µL of Buffer SA and vortex to mix.Note: In the case of plant leaves and animal tissues, they should be ground with a pestle and mortar as much as possible: in the case of plant seeds, they should be crushed and finely ground beforehand; bacterial and 1-3 mm rat-tail samples can be directly vortex lysed.3. Add 10µL of Proteinase K, mix well, incubate at 56℃ for 10 minutes, and treat at 95℃ for 5 minutes.Note: 1) In the case of animal tissue samples, the incubation time at 56°C may be extended to 30 minutes as appropriate; if there is any incompletely digested tissue, it should be removed as thoroughly as possible after centrifugation in the next step.2) Be careful not to exceed 5 minutes when treating at 95°C.4. 13,000 rpm (~17,900 x g), centrifugation for 5 minutes.5. Transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube (self-prepared) and use it directly for PCR amplification, or store the solution at 4℃ or -20℃.6. PCR amplification:1) PCR reaction system:The following examples are conventional PCR reaction systems and reaction conditions, which should be improved and optimized according to the template, primer structure and target fragment size in actual operation.reagents20 µL systemfinal concentration2×PCR MasterMix10 µL1×Forward Primer, 10 µM1 µL0.4 µMReverse Primer, 10 µM1 µL0.4 µMTemplate DNA1-2 µL RNase-free Waterup to 20 µLNote: Please use the final concentration of 0.2-0.6µM as a reference for setting the range of primer concentration. If the amplification efficiency is not high, the concentration of primer can be increased; if a non-specific reaction occurs, the concentration of primer can be decreased, thus optimizing the reaction system.2）PCR reaction conditions:movetemptimingpremutability94°C2mindenaturation94°C30sannealing (metallurgy)55-65°C30s30-40 cyclesreach72°C60sultimate extension72°C5minNote: 1) In general, the annealing temperature is 5℃ lower than the melting temperature of the amplification primer Tm, and the annealing time is generally 30-60 seconds. When the desired amplification efficiency cannot be obtained, the annealing temperature should be lowered appropriately; when a non-specific reaction occurs, the annealing temperature should be raised, thus optimizing the reaction conditions.(2) The extension time is set according to the size of the fragment to be amplified, and the amplification efficiency of Taq DNA Polymerase included in this product is 1kb/30s. 3) The number of cycles can be set according to the downstream application of the amplification product. If the number of cycles is too low, the amplification is insufficient; if the number of cycles is high, the chance of mismatch will increase and the non-specific background will be serious. Therefore, the number of cycles should be minimized under the premise of ensuring the product yield.(3) Result detection: 5 µL of reaction product was taken at the end of the reaction and directly detected by agarose gel electrophoresis...

It is also suitable for extracting DNA from samples containing high concentrations of PCR reaction inhibitors. This reagent kit adopts a unique buffering system to efficiently bind DNA from the lysis solution to the adsorption column. Inhibitors of PCR and enzyme reactions, as well as residual impurities, can be effectively removed through washing steps. Finally, high-purity DNA can be obtained by washing with low salt buffer or water. The purified DNA can be directly used for downstream experiments such as second-generation sequencing (16S amplicons and metagenomes), library construction, PCR, qPCR, Southern Blot, enzyme digestion molecular markers, etc.Self prepared reagents1. Constant temperature mixer - Product number: CW25932. Anhydrous ethanol, isopropanol3. Vortex oscillator or tissue grinderPreparation and important precautions before the experiment1. Samples should avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, otherwise it may result in smaller extracted DNA fragments and a decrease in extraction volume.2.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 (concentrate) and Buffer GW2 (concentrate) according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.3. Take out the buffer RIL before use and store it at 2-8 ℃ immediately after use.Operation steps1. Centrifuge the Lysis Tube briefly to allow the beads to settle at the bottom.2. a. Add 0.1-0.3 g of soil or fecal sample to Lysis Tube, and add 740-820 µ L Buffer QSL and 4 µ L RNase A, tighten the tube cover and briefly vortex to mix.b. If fecal samples are stored in non lytic fecal preservation solutions (such as CWY041S and CWY041M), add 200 to Lysis Tube µ L-600 µ L solid-liquid mixture, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the storage solution (if the amount of solid after centrifugation is too small, it can be enriched again, but should not exceed 0.3g). Join 620 µ LBuffer QSL and 4 µ L RNase A, tighten the tube cover and briefly vortex to mix.3. Fix the Lysis Tube in an oscillating grinding device equipped with a 2 mL adapter and process it according to the optimized grinding conditions of your equipment (see appendix).4. Shake the Lysis Tube on a constant temperature mixer at 70 ℃ and 1200 rpm for 10 minutes. Subsequently, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 2 minutes to precipitate solid particles. Transfer 540 µ Transfer the supernatant to a new 2 mL centrifuge tube.5. Add 180 µ L Buffer RIL, vortex for 5 seconds, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 2 minutes.Attention: Remove the buffer RIL before use and store it at 2-8 ℃ immediately after use.6. Add 160 to the new centrifuge tube in sequence µ L Buffer ML, 480 µ Supernatant from step 5, 320 µ L isopropanol, vortex for 5 seconds.7. Transfer the solution from the previous step to 650 µ Centrifuge at 12000 rpm (~13400 × g) for 1 minute into the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube.8. Discard the waste liquid in the collection pipe and place the adsorption column back into the collection pipe. Repeat step 7 until all the solution has been transferred.9. Add 500 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer GW1 (check if anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), 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.10. Add 500 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer GW2 (check if anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), 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. 11. Repeat step 10.12.12000 rpm for 2 minutes and discard the waste liquid from the collection tube. Place the adsorption column at room temperature for a few minutes to thoroughly air dry.Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column, which can affect subsequent enzymatic reactions (such as enzyme digestion, PCR, etc.).13. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube (self provided) and add 50-200 drops of suspended droplets to the middle of the adsorption column µ L Buffer EBL or sterilized water, leave at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, collect DNA solution, and store DNA at -20 ℃.Note: 1) Incubating at room temperature for 5 minutes before centrifugation can increase yield.2) Use an additional 50-100 µ Further elution with L buffer or sterilized water can increase yield.3) If you want to increase the final concentration of DNA, you can add the DNA eluent obtained in step 13 back onto the adsorption membrane and repeat step 13, but it may reduce the total yield.4) The elution buffer does not contain chelating agents, please store DNA at -20 ℃.5) The residual trace PCR inhibitors in the genomic DNA template may have adverse effects on the PCR reaction, which can usually be resolved by diluting the DNA by 2-10 times.Appendix: Grind the sample using one of the following methods1. Manually vortex oscillate at maximum speed on the vortex oscillator for 10 minutes.2. On a vortex oscillator equipped with a 1.5-2 mL horizontal centrifuge tube holder, oscillate at maximum speed for 10 minutes (keeping the Lysis Tube horizontal).
