Sample Extraction (Chloroplast Isolation)Weigh approximately 0.1 g of plant tissue sample. Add 1 mL of Extraction Buffer 1 and homogenize rapidly in an ice bath. Centrifuge at 1,600 rpm, 4°C for 5 minutes. Discard the pellet. Take the supernatant and centrifuge again at 5,000 rpm, 4°C for 15 minutes. Discard the supernatant and keep the pellet. Add 1 mL of Extraction Buffer 2 to the pellet. Vortex vigorously for 15 seconds. Place on ice (or in a refrigerator) and incubate at 4°C for 15 minutes. Centrifuge at 13,000 rpm, 4°C for 5 minutes. Collect the supernatant for assaying the chloroplast 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) enzyme activity.Important: The entire chloroplast extraction process must be maintained at 4°C.Note: If increasing the sample amount, maintain a tissue mass (g) to Extraction Buffer volume (mL) ratio between 1:5 and 1:10.2. Assay Steps2.1 Preheat the microplate reader for 30 minutes. Set the wavelength to 340 nm and the temperature to 25°C.2.2 Thaw all reagents to room temperature (25°C).2.3 Add reagents sequentially to a 96-well plate:ReagentTest Well (µL)Sample20Reagent 110Reagent 210Reagent 310Reagent 4140Mix well and incubate at room temperature (25°C) for 10 minutes.Reagent 510Mix gently. Under room temperature (25°C) conditions, read the absorbance at 340 nm at 30 seconds (A₁) and then again after 10 minutes (A₂). Calculate ΔA = A₁ - A₂.注：Notes:(1) If ΔA is close to zero, the reaction time can be appropriately extended to 20 minutes before reading A₂. If the reaction time is changed, the new time (T) must be substituted into the calculation formula. Alternatively, the sample volume can be increased (e.g., to 40 µL, with a corresponding decrease in Reagent 4 volume); the new sample volume (V₁) must then be substituted into the calculation formula.(2) If the decrease trend is unstable, read the absorbance every 20 seconds and select a linearly decreasing time period for calculation. The corresponding A values for this period should be used to calculate ΔA and substituted into the formula.(3) If the initial absorbance A₁ is too high (e.g., >2, as in dark green plant leaves with high pigment content), consider appropriately reducing the sample volume; the new sample volume (V₁) must be substituted into the calculation formula. Alternatively, add a small amount of activated carbon to the sample, mix, let stand for 5 minutes, then centrifuge at 12,000 rpm, 4°C for 10 minutes, and use the supernatant for assay.(4) If ΔA is greater than 0.5, reduce the reaction time (e.g., to 5 minutes) or reduce the sample volume (e.g., to 10 µL). The changed reaction time (T) and/or sample volume (V₁) must be substituted into the calculation formula.3.

However, in some plant tissues (e.g. endosperm of corn), due to the special secondary metabolites, guanidine isothiocyanate causes precipitation of the sample, resulting in poor RNA extraction, in this case, Buffer RLC can be added instead of Buffer RL.2) Incubation at 56°C for 1-3 minutes helps tissue lysis, but do not incubate at high temperatures for plants with high starch content.2. Transfer all the liquid obtained in step 1 to an adsorption column (Spin Columns FL) that has been loaded into a collection tube, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 2 minutes, and transfer the supernatant from the collection tube to a new centrifuge tube (supplied).Note: 1) The tip of the tip of the gun can be cut off when aspirating liquids to facilitate sampling.2) Spin Columns FL removes most of the debris, but a small portion will still flow out and a precipitate will form in the collection tube after centrifugation, so be careful to avoid aspirating the precipitate when proceeding to the next step.3. Add 0.5 times the volume of anhydrous ethanol to the clean lysate obtained in step 2 and mix rapidly.Note: Precipitation may occur upon addition of ethanol, but does not affect subsequent tests.4. Transfer the solution obtained in the previous step to the Spin Columns RM in the collection tube. If it is not possible to add all of the solution to the column at one time, centrifuge the column at 12,000 rpm for 15 seconds in two batches, discard the waste solution and put the column back into the collection tube.5. Add 350 µl Buffer RW1 to the adsorbent column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, discard the waste liquid and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.6.

The optimized buffer system enables DNA to bind heterogeneously to the silica matrix centrifugal adsorption column, and the inhibitors of PCR and other enzymatic reactions can be effectively removed by a two-step washing step, and finally eluted with a low-salt buffer or water to obtain high-purity DNA.The purified obtained can be directly used for enzyme digestion, PCR, Real-Time PCR, library construction, Southern Blot, molecular labeling and other downstream experiments.Self-contained reagent: anhydrous ethanolPre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this may result in smaller fragments of extracted DNA and a decrease in the amount extracted.2. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the label of the reagent bottle before first use.3. Before use, please check whether Buffer GL appears to be crystallized or precipitated.Redissolve in a 56°C water bath.4. If the downstream experiments are sensitive to RNA contamination, 4 µL DNase-Free RNase A can be added in step 3(100 mg/mL).5. For prolonged storage of salivary DNA at room temperature, our Salivary DNA Preservation Tubes are recommended.Operation steps1. Add 400 µL of saliva sample or saliva/preservation solution mixture.Note: 1) Saliva mixtures added to the preservation solution require a 50°C water bath for 1 hour or an empty 50°C temperature chamber for 2 hours prior to extraction.2) If an increase in sample volume is required, multiply the volumes of Proteinase K, Buffer GL, and anhydrous ethanol in Steps 2-4, and the liquid can be transferred in multiple times in Step 5.2. Add 40 µL of Proteinase K.3. Add 400µL Buffer GL, vortex and shake to mix thoroughly, and water bath at 56℃ for 15-30 minutes.Note: If RNA removal is required, add 4 µL of RNase A solution at a concentration of 100 mg/mL after the above steps are completed, vortex for 15 seconds, and leave at room temperature for 2 minutes.4. Centrifuge briefly to remove water droplets from the inside of the tube cap. Add 400 µL of anhydrous ethanol and mix well by vortexing and shaking. Centrifuge briefly.Note: 1) Vortex and shake to mix immediately after adding Buffer GL and anhydrous ethanol.The addition of Buffer GL and anhydrous ethanol may produce a white precipitate that will not affect subsequent experiments.2) A sol-gel product may be formed after GL and anhydrous ethanol, in which case vigorous shaking or vortexing is recommended.3) The solution obtained in the previous step is added to the adsorption column in the Collection Tube.5.

Add 500 µL of Buffer GW2 to the adsorption column (check that anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Note: Step 7 can be repeated if further DNA purity is required.8. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes and pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube. Leave the adsorption column at room temperature for several minutes to dry thoroughly.Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column, which can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).9. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube (supplied), add 50-200 µL of Buffer GE or sterilized water to the middle of the adsorption column overhanging the column, let it stand at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute to collect the DNA solution.-20°C to preserve DNA.Note: 1) If the downstream experiment is sensitive to pH or EDTA, you can use sterilized water for elution. The pH of the eluent has a great influence on the elution efficiency, if water is used as the eluent should ensure that its pH is 7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH of the water to this range), and the elution efficiency is not high when the pH is lower than 7.0.2) Buffer GE preheated in a 65-70°C water bath and incubated at room temperature for 5 min before centrifugation can increase the yield.3) Because DNA preserved in water is subject to acidic hydrolysis, for long-term storage, elution with Buffer GE and storage at -20°C is recommended...

Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute and pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube. Leave the adsorption column at room temperature for several minutes to dry thoroughly.Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column, which can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).9. Place the adsorption column in a new 1.5 mL centrifuge tube, add 50 µL of Buffer GE or sterilized water to the middle of the adsorption column overhanging the column, let stand at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, collect the DNA solution, and store at -20℃.Attention:(1) If the downstream experiment is sensitive to pH or EDTA, it can be eluted with sterilized water. The pH value of the eluent has a great influence on the elution efficiency. If the eluent is made of water, the pH value should be 7.0-8.5 (the pH value of water can be adjusted to this range by using NaOH), and the elution efficiency is not high when the pH value is lower than 7.0.2) For long-term storage, it is recommended to elute with Buffer GE and store at -20°C...
