Prepare working fluidPreparation 2 µ M Calcein AM and 4 µ M EthD-I staining solution: Remove the original solution of Calcein AM and EthD-I and restore them to room temperature. Add 20 µ L 2 mM EthD-I and 5 µ Mix 4 mM Calcein AM with 10 mL PBS or other serum-free buffer or culture medium, vortex well. The above working solution can be directly used for cell staining.Note: The aqueous solution of Calcein AM is easily hydrolyzed and should be used up every day. The concentration selection of Calcein AM and EthD-I varies depending on the type of cell used, with a recommended concentration range of 0.1-10 µ M.2. Prepare cells and conduct experiments(1) For adherent cells, they can be washed 2-3 times with 1 × PBS before staining. For suspended cells, centrifuge at room temperature of 250-1000 × g for 5 minutes and collect cells for staining.(2) Wash the cells thoroughly 2-3 times with 1 × PBS to remove residual esterase activity.(3) For adherent cells, add sufficient amount of Calcein AM/EthD-I staining solution. For suspended cells, add an appropriate amount of staining solution to control the cell density between 1-5 × 105/mL.(4) Incubate at room temperature in dark for 15-20 minutes (if the working solution concentration is high or the incubation temperature is high, the incubation time should be appropriately reduced).(5) Observe the labeled cells under a fluorescence microscope.Flow cytometry detection1. Remove the reagent and restore it to room temperature.2. Preparation 2 µ M Calcein AM and 4 µ M EthD-I staining solution: Take out the original solution of Calcein AM and EthD-I, and restore to room temperature. Add 20 µ L 2 mMEthD-I and 5 µ Vortex mix 4 mM Calcein AM with 10 mL PBS or other serum-free buffer or culture medium. The working fluid can directly stain cells.3. Wash cells thoroughly 2-3 times with 1 × PBS.4. Suspend cells with 0.5 mL of staining solution and control the cell density to 1-5 × 105/mL.Note: It is recommended to prepare two additional cell samples, each containing only one dye (Calcein AM and EthD-I), for compensatory regulation of flow cytometry single staining; Prepare another cell sample containing only buffer solution (which should be consistent with the buffer used to prepare Calcein AM and EthD-I detection working solutions) as a negative control for flow cytometry analysis.5. Incubate at room temperature in dark for 15-20 minutes.6. Within 1-2 hours, cell activity was detected by flow cytometry. Calcein AM can be excited by a 488 nm laser, with fluorescence emission spectra detected at around 530 nm and EthD-I emission spectra at around 610 nm.Note: When using the cell circle gate, attention should be paid to excluding cell debris and using a single staining tube to regulate compensation. Double staining tube flow cytometry should obtain two relatively independent cell populations: a live cell population displaying green fluorescence and a dead cell population displaying red fluorescence.ELISA reader detection1. Cultivate an appropriate amount of adherent or suspended cells in a 96 well black ELISA plate.Note: Dead cells can be obtained by treating cells with 1% saponin or 0.1-0.5% digitalis saponin for 10 minutes.2. Preparation 2 µ M Calcein AM and 4 µ M EthD-I staining solution:Remove the original solutions of Calcein AM and EthD-I and restore them to room temperature. Add 20 µ L 2 mM EthD-I and 5 µ Mix 4 mM Calcein AM 10 mL PBS or other serum-free buffer or culture medium, vortex well.Note: (1) 10 mL of staining solution is sufficient to stain a 96 well plate, and the volume of the staining solution can be adjusted according to experimental needs. The concentrations of Calcein AM and EthD-I can range from 0.1 to 10 µ Explore between M.(2) The aqueous solution of Calcein AM is easily hydrolyzed and should be used up every day. EthD-I working solution can be stored at -20 ℃ for at least one year.3. Wash the cells thoroughly with 1 × PBS to remove residual esterase activity. For adherent cells, add 100 to each well µ Wash cells with PBS. For suspended cells, add 100 µ Resuspend cells with L PBS and centrifuge to remove the supernatant. Repeat the above operation.4. Add 100 to each hole µ L PBS.5. Add 100 to each hole µ L staining solution, making the total volume of each well 200 µ L. The final concentration of Calcein AM is 1 µ M. The final concentration of EthD-I is 2 µ M. Gently shake the culture plate to evenly cover the cells with the liquid.Incubate at room temperature in dark for 30-45 minutes.Note: The optimal incubation time varies for different cells, with 30 minutes as the initial incubation time. Subsequently, the staining time can be adjusted and optimized according to the actual staining effect to obtain a more ideal staining effect.7. Enzyme reader detection. When the ELISA reader is set to fluorescein, it can detect Calcein AM; When the ELISA reader is set to rhodamine or Texas Red, EthD-I can be detected. Select the optimal emission and excitation wavelengths based on spectral characteristics.Note: By comparing the relative fluorescence values (RFU) measured between the sample group and the control group, the changes in the number of dead and live cells can be obtained. Another method of data analysis is also provided below.The following method can calculate the ratio of live cells to dead cells in a certain region. The required samples include dead cell control group, live cell control group, and the sample group to be tested. Dead cells can be obtained by treating cells with 1% saponin or 0.1-0.5% digitalis saponin for 10 minutes.1. Prepare staining solution and follow the above steps to stain cells. Additionally, prepare 1 mL and 2 mL separately µ M Calcein AM and 4 µ M EthD-I solution, stain the control group according to the following instructions. For the following groups of cells or cell-free groups, it is necessary to maintain complete consistency in cell count, detection of working solution concentration, incubation time, and incubation temperature.2.

Self-contained reagents and consumablesSterile pipette tips with aerosol barrier to prevent cross-contamination anhydrous ethanol Microcentrifuge tubes (2 ml/1.5 ml) PBS buffer (required for some samples only)Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. Add 1.25 ml Proteinase K Storage Buffer to Proteinase K and store at -20℃. Do not leave the prepared Proteinase K (20 mg/ml) at room temperature for a long time, and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to avoid affecting its activity.2. Dissolve Lysozyme (100 mg) in 10 ml Enzymatic Lysis Buffer to a final concentration of 10 mg/ml, dispense into sterile tubes and store at -20℃. Do not leave the prepared Lysozyme (10 mg/ml) at room temperature for a long time and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to avoid affecting its activity.3. Thaw Buffer GB1 and Buffer GB2 at room temperature or 2-8°C before use and mix thoroughly. Thawed Buffer GB1 and Buffer GB2 can be left at 2-8°C for 1-2 weeks without affecting their activity, and should be stored at -20°C for long term storage. To ensure optimal performance, do not freeze or thaw more than three times. If less than one bottle of Buffer GB1 and Buffer GB2 is required for a single extraction, ensure that it is used under sterile conditions such as an ultra-clean bench and avoid microbial contamination and growth in the remaining buffer.4. Before first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the vial label and labeled.5. Check Buffer GL for crystallization or precipitation before use, and if crystallization or precipitation occurs, redissolve Buffer GL in a 56°C water bath.6. If the downstream experiments are sensitive to RNA contamination, 4 µl of DNase-Free RNase A (100 mg/ml) can be added before adding Buffer GL. RNase A is not provided in the kit, but can be ordered separately from CW0601S.7. This kit is designed for the isolation of DNA from intact microbial cells. To ensure optimal recovery of microbial DNA, samples should be fresh. If storage or transportation is required, this should preferably be done at 2-8°C and not frozen or thawed, as freezing and thawing can damage the integrity of the microbial cells and therefore result in the loss of exposed microbial DNA during host DNA removal.8. To avoid false results due to contamination, keep the work area clean, wear protective clothing, and set up controls for quality control. Use appropriate measures to handle sample materials to minimize the risk of cross-contamination. During the extraction process, use DNA-free pipette tips and consumables, and cap reagents immediately after use to prevent contamination. procedure1. Sample pre-treatment: 1a: For swab samples, swirl the swab portion of the swab in 0.5 ml PBS for at least 20 s. Squeeze the swab several times against the wall of the tube before removing it so that as much of the bacterial fluid as possible can be squeezed out of the swab to minimize sample loss. 1b: For viscous samples, e.g. sputum, take ~500 µl of sample, add 1.5 times the volume (~750 µl) of Buffer GB1 and incubate at 37°C, 600 rpm for 15-30 min until the sample is completely liquefied.Note: The sample volume can be increased or decreased appropriately and the amount of Buffer GB1 added adjusted accordingly.1c: For alveolar lavage fluid containing a small amount of viscous sputum, centrifuge as much of the alveolar lavage fluid as possible, carefully remove the supernatant, and retain the lower viscous fraction (containing sputum, cells, and organisms), add 1.5 times the volume of Buffer GB1, and incubate for 15-30 min at 37°C, 600 rpm until the sample is completely liquefied.1d: For non-viscous body fluid samples such as blood and cerebrospinal fluid, liquefaction treatment is not required, and an appropriate amount of sample is taken directly, the operation of step 2 is carried out, and the cell precipitate is collected by centrifugation.2. Centrifuge at 10000 rpm for 5-10 min at room temperature and carefully discard the supernatant.Note: Do not disturb the lower cell sediment to avoid sample loss.3.

Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 2 min, discard the supernatant, add 500 µl of Buffer GB2, vortex and wash the precipitate. Repeat the procedure once.7. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 2 min, discard the supernatant, and finally aspirate the residual Buffer GB2 with a small-volume tip. 8. Add 180 µl Lysozyme (10 mg/ml), resuspend the bacterial precipitate and transfer the bacterial resuspension to a Lysis Tube.9. The Lysis Tube is incubated at 37°C, 600 rpm for 20-30 min, then vortexed for 10 min or processed on a thermostatic homogenizer for 10 min at maximum vibration speed (2500-2900 rpm).10. Centrifuge briefly, add 20 µl proteinase K, vortex to mix, add 200 µl buffer GL, vortex to mix, and incubate for 30 min at 56°C, 600 rpm. Note: 1) Do not add Proteinase K directly to Buffer GL.2)For RNA removal, add 4 µl DNase-Free RNase A (100 mg/ml) before adding Buffer GL, shake to mix, and let stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.11. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 min and carefully aspirate the supernatant into a new centrifuge tube. Note: Do not aspirate the glass beads.12. Add 200 µl of anhydrous ethanol, vortex to mix, and centrifuge momentarily to collect the solution to the bottom of the tube. Note: The addition of anhydrous ethanol may produce a white precipitate that will not affect subsequent experiments.13. Add all of the solution from step 12, including the precipitate, to the Spin Columns DM in the collection tube, or transfer the solution several times if it cannot be added all at once. centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste from the collection tube, and return the column to the collection tube.14.

Note: Step 15 can be repeated once if further improvement of DNA purity is required.16. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes and pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube. Leave the column at room temperature for a few minutes and dry thoroughly. Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorbent column; ethanol residue can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).17. Place the adsorbent column in a new centrifuge tube (supplied), add 50 µl of Buffer GE to the center of the adsorbent column overhang, let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, collect the DNA solution, and store the DNA at -20 °C. Attention:1)If the downstream experiments are sensitive to pH or EDTA, sterilized water can be used for elution. 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 with NaOH), and the elution efficiency is not high when the pH value is lower than 7.0.2)Incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes prior to centrifugation increases yield.3)If the final concentration of DNA is to be increased, the DNA eluate obtained in step 17 can be re-spiked onto the adsorbent membrane and step 17 repeated. 4)DNA stored in water will be affected by acidic hydrolysis. For long-term storage, it is recommended to elute with Buffer GE and store at -20℃...
