Succinic acid concentrations are monitored in the manufacture of numerous foodstuffs and beverages, including wine, soy sauce, soy bean flour, fruit juice and dairy products (e.g. cheese). The ripening process of apples can be followed by monitoring the falling levels of succinic acid. The occurrence of > 5 mg/kg of this acid in egg and egg products is indicative of microbial contamination. Apart from use as a flavouring agent in the food and beverage industries, succinic acid finds many other non-food applications, such as in the production of dyes, drugs, perfumes, lacquers, photographic chemicals and coolants.

In mammals, D-Lactate metabolism requires D-Lactate hydrogenase and is metabolized slowly, thus an increase in blood concentration levels can lead to D-Lactate, typically present in the bloodstream at nanomolar concentrations, is produced by an intestinal source or via the methylglyoxal pathway. In mammals, D-Lactate metabolism requires D-Lactate hydrogenase and is metabolized slowly, thus an increase in blood concentration levels can lead to acidemia and acidosis. The severity of this D-lactic acidosis can be associated with neurotoxic symptoms. Significant D-Lactate accumulations in the body can also be related to impaired metabolism and excretion.D-Lactate Colorimetric Assay kit has been used to determine the stereospecificity of lactate produced.Suitability: Suitable for use with samples of serum, plasma, cells, culture and fermentation media.Principle: In this assay, D-Lactate is specifically oxidized by D-Lactate hydrogenase and generates a proportional colorimetric product measured at 450 nm.

We also have transposase library construction kits for 50 ng and 1 ng of human genomic DNA starting, in order to get a higher quality library, it is recommended to use different kits for different starting amount of DNA. Products IntroductionThis kit is developed for Illumina's high-throughput sequencing platform and provides the enzyme premix system and reaction buffer for genomic DNA library construction, including all components except PCR primers. Compared with the traditional library construction kits, this kit adopts the new transposase method for library construction, which can complete DNA fragmentation, end repair and junction reaction in one simple enzymatic reaction, significantly reducing the amount of template, reducing the number of experimental steps, and shortening the time of library construction; it adopts the high-fidelity DNA polymerase for library enrichment, and the preference-free PCR amplification can expand the coverage area of the sequence, which can be used for efficient and effective sequencing. The use of high-fidelity DNA polymerase for library enrichment and preference-free PCR amplification broadens the coverage area of the sequence and enables efficient preparation of DNA libraries for Illumina's second-generation sequencing platform. The kit is suitable for use with a starting template DNA input of 5 ng, and all reagents in the kit have been subjected to stringent quality control and functional validation to maximize the stability and reproducibility of library construction. Product Features● DNA fragmentation and junction ligation in one step.● Ultra-fidelity amplification minimizes amplification preference.Provide your own instruments, kits and consumables1. Magnetic frame: DynaMagTM-2 is recommended.2. DNA purification and recovery kit: It is recommended to use DNA purification and recovery kit by magnetic bead method.3. Library PCR primer kit: It is recommended to use transposase method for second generation sequencing multi-sample primer kit.4. Anhydrous ethanol, deionized water (pH between 7.0 and 8.0).5. Reaction tubes: It is recommended to use low adsorption PCR tubes and 1.5 ml centrifuge tubes. Tips: It is recommended to use high quality filter tips to prevent contamination of kits and library samples. Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of reagents.2. PCR products are easily contaminated due to improper operation, resulting in inaccurate results. It is recommended to isolate the PCR reaction system preparation area from the PCR product purification area, and to use special pipettes to clean the experimental areas at regular intervals.3. Bead purification: the beads should be equilibrated to room temperature before use, all operations on the beads should be carried out at room temperature, 80% ethanol should be dispensed freshly, the beads should be rinsed and dried until the surface is free of liquid reflections and has a frosted appearance, insufficient drying of the beads will cause ethanol residue that will affect the subsequent experiments, and over-drying of the beads will affect the efficiency of DNA recovery.4. The kit is suitable for human genomic DNA library construction, if the DNA sample is a PCR product, it should be ensured that its length>.500 bp, since transposases do not work on DNA ends, it is recommended to extend the PCR product by 50-100 bp at each end of the PCR product to avoid low coverage of the ends for sequencing. Sample PreparationDNA purity requirements: A260/A280 = 1.8-2.0. Sample DNA: dissolve in ultrapure water. DNA Quantification: Too much or too little DNA will affect the quality of the library. It is recommended to use Nano to test the purity of the genomic DNA and then use Qubit to test the concentration of the genome (do not use any absorbance-based assay for template quantification).

Mix by gently blowing with a pipette and centrifuge briefly so that all components are collected at the bottom of the tube.3. Place the above PCR tubes in the PCR instrument with the hot cap on and program the reaction as follows: inactivation reactionAfter the DNA is fragmented, the enzyme is still in a high active state, so it should be removed from the PCR instrument immediately and terminated by adding the Reaction Termination Buffer, in order to prevent the DNA from being fragmented too much and resulting in smaller library fragments.1. Add 3 µl of TS Buffer to the PCR tube containing the fragmentation product.2. Mix by gently blowing with a pipette and centrifuge briefly so that all components are collected at the bottom of the tube.3.

When different sizes of DNA fragments are required, the amount of magnetic beads used is different, please refer to the attached table for the specific amount of magnetic beads used.(If using other brands of magnetic beads, you need to figure out the optimal amount of magnetic beads by yourself).Note: Amplification products can also be fragment length sorted and purified using the Gum Recovery Kit. If there is no special requirement for library length distribution, amplification products can also be purified directly from DNA fragments without selective recovery of DNA fragments as described on page 4 of the manual.1.

Repeat step 6 once.8. Keep the centrifuge tube fixed on a magnetic rack and leave to dry at room temperature until the surface of the beads is slightly cracked, add 20 µl of ddH2O to solubilize.Note: Do not over-dry the beads as this may affect the elution efficiency.9. Remove the centrifuge tube from the magnetic rack, vortex to completely resuspend the beads, and allow to stand at room temperature for 5 minutes.

Library quality controlDetermination of library concentrationIn order to obtain high-quality sequencing results, accurate quantification of DNA libraries is required, and the first recommendation is to use Real-timePCR methods are used for absolute quantification of DNA libraries. Additionally, fluorescent dye methods such as the Qubit method or the fluorescent dye picogreen method can be used; do not use quantification methods based on absorbance measurements here. The following approximate formula can be used to convert the molar concentration of the DNA library. Library fragment distributionThe prepared DNA libraries can be detected by agarose gel electrophoresis or Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer.Range of segment length distributions...
