Read More | When apoptosis occurs, some DNA endonucleases will be activated. These endonucleases will cut off genomic DNA between nucleosomes and produce 180 bp-200 BP DNA fragments, which appear as a specific ladder pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. When double strand or single strand breaks occur in When apoptosis occurs, some DNA endonucleases will be activated. These endonucleases will cut off genomic DNA between nucleosomes and produce 180 bp-200 BP DNA fragments, which appear as a specific ladder pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. When double strand or single strand breaks occur in genomic DNA, a large number of sticky 3'-oh ends will be generated, which can interact with YF under the catalysis of deoxyribonucleotide terminal transferase (TDT) ®/ CY dUTP binding can directly detect apoptotic cells by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. This kind of method is called terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL). Because normal or proliferating cells have almost no DNA breaks, there is no 3'-oh formation and they can rarely be stained. TUNEL method can stain intact single apoptotic nuclei or apoptotic bodies in situ, can accurately reflect the typical biochemical and morphological characteristics of apoptosis, and can detect a very small number of apoptotic cells, so it is widely used in the study of apoptosis. This kit has a wide range of applications and can be used to detect apoptosis in frozen or paraffin sections, as well as cultured adherent cells or suspended cells. It can selectively detect apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks caused by irradiation and drug treatment. This kit detects cell apoptosis with a short time-consuming, one-step staining reaction and can be detected after washing.

Through the unique centrifugal adsorption column and the DNA washing elution step, 100 bp-10 kb DNA fragments can be recovered and purified from ordinary or low melting point agarose gel. The sol speed is fast and the recovery rate is high. The sol solution contains a pH indicator, which can be used to determine whether the sol recovery has reached the optimal state based on its color. Each adsorption column can adsorb up to 10 µ G DNA, while effectively removing impurities such as primers, enzymes, mineral oil, and agarose. The purified and recovered DNA has high purity and concentration, good integrity, and can be directly used for molecular biology experiments such as sequencing, linking and transformation, labeling, and in vitro transcription.Self prepared reagents: anhydrous ethanol, isopropanol.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment:1.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to the Buffer PW according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.2. Before use, please check the Buffer PG. If crystallization or precipitation occurs, it can be left in a 37 ℃ water bath for 3-5 minutes to restore clarity.3. It is best to use a new electrophoresis buffer during electrophoresis to avoid affecting the electrophoresis and recovery efficiency; The following experiment requires high requirements, please use TAE electrophoresis buffer as much as possible.4.When cutting glue, the UV irradiation time should be as short as possible to avoid damage to DNA.5. The recovery rate is related to the initial amount of DNA and the elution volume. The smaller the initial amount, the smaller the elution volume, and the lower the recovery rate.6. Preheat the water bath to 50 ℃.7. Buffer PG contains a pH indicator. When the pH is ≤ 7.5, the color of the solution is yellow, and DNA can effectively bind to the membrane. When the pH is too high, the color of the solution turns orange red and purple, which needs to be adjusted.8. All centrifugation steps can be performed at room temperature.Operation steps:1. Cut the single purpose DNA strip from the agarose gel (try to cut the excess), put it into a clean centrifuge tube (self prepared), and weigh and calculate the weight of the gel (record the weight of the centrifuge tube in advance).Attention: If the volume of the adhesive block is too large, it can be cut into small pieces.2. Add one time of the volume of Buffer PG (if the gel weighs 100 mg, its volume can be regarded as 100 µ l. And so on.3.50 ℃ water bath and gently invert the centrifuge tube every 2-3 minutes until the sol turns yellow to ensure full dissolution of the gel block. If there are still unsolved glue blocks, you can add some more sol solution or continue to let it stand for a few minutes until the glue blocks are completely dissolved.Note: 1) After the gel is completely dissolved, the gel solution is yellow, and subsequent operations can be carried out; If the glue solution is orange red or purple, 10-30 can be added to the glue solution µ 3 M sodium acetate (pH 5.0), adjust the color of the solution to yellow before proceeding with subsequent operations.2) After the gel block is completely dissolved, it is best to lower the temperature of the gel solution to room temperature before loading the column. The adsorption column has a weaker ability to bind DNA at higher temperatures.4. (Optional step) When the recovered fragment is less than 300 bp, add 1/2 of the gel volume of isopropanol, and mix it upside down (if the gel weighs 100 mg, add 50 µ Isopropanol of L.5. Column balance: Add 200 to the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube µ Centrifuge at 13000 rpm (~16200 × g) for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.6. Add the solution obtained from steps 3 or 4 to the adsorption column that has been loaded into the collection tube, let it stand at room temperature for 2 minutes, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column in the collection tube.Attention: The volume of the adsorption column is 750 µ l. If the sample volume is greater than 750 µ L can be added in batches.7. Add 450 to the adsorption column µ LBuffer PW (please check if anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column in the collection tube.Note: If purified DNA is used for salt sensitive experiments (such as flat end ligation or direct sequencing), it is recommended to add Buffer PW and let it stand for 2-5 minutes before centrifugation.8. Repeat step 7.9.13000 rpm for 1 minute and discard the waste liquid from the collection tube.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.).10. Place the adsorption column into a new 1.5 ml centrifuge tube (provided by oneself), and add 50 drops to the middle position of the adsorption membrane in the air µ L Buffer EB, leave at room temperature for 2 minutes. Centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute and collect DNA solution- Store DNA at 20 ℃.Attention:1) To improve the recovery of DNA, the solution obtained by centrifugation can be re dropped onto the adsorption column, left at room temperature for 2 minutes, and centrifuged at 13000 rpm for 1 minute.2) The elution volume should not be less than 30 µ l. A small volume will affect the recovery efficiency.3) When recovering DNA fragments larger than 10 kb, Buffer EB should be preheated in a 50 ℃ water bath to increase recovery efficiency.Note: This reagent kit is also suitable for the purification and recovery of PCR products. Add an equal volume of Buffer PG to the PCR reaction solution and mix thoroughly (for small fragments with a recovery of less than 150bp, the solution volume can be increased to three times to improve the recovery rate).
