Products IntroductionThe SuperFast Probe One Step RT-qPCR U+ Kit is designed for quantitative PCR assays using RNA as a template (e.g., RNA viruses). Using gene-specific primers (GSP), reverse transcription and qPCR reactions are completed in a single tube, eliminating the need for additional tube-opening/pipetting operations, greatly increasing throughput and reducing the risk of contamination. The dUTP/UNG anti-contamination system is introduced in this kit. The heat-sensitive UNG rapidly degrades U-containing contaminants at room temperature; it is rapidly inactivated by reverse transcription at 55°C, without affecting the efficiency and sensitivity of qRT-PCR. Combined with optimized buffer systems and antibody-modified Taq enzymes and mutated M-MLV, the SuperFast Probe One Step RT-qPCR U+ Kit provides sensitivity up to 0.1 pg of total RNA or <10 copies of RNA template and enhanced thermal stability. 5× SuperFast One Step RT-qPCR U+ Buffer contains the following components The 5× SuperFast One Step RT-qPCR U+ Buffer contains an optimized buffer system and dNTP/dUTP Mix, which is particularly suitable for high specificity, low template concentration and multiplexed rapid detection of fluorescently labeled probes such as TaqMan. caveatBefore use, please mix the product gently by turning it up and down after it is completely melted to avoid foaming, and use it after brief centrifugation. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the product.ROX dye is used to correct the fluorescence signal error between the quantitative PCR wells, this product does not contain ROX dye, if you need to match the ROX dye with the instrument you are using, please contact your local business or call CombiSense customer service at 4006-222-360. PCR reaction system Attention: (1) Usually, the final primer concentration of 0.2 µM can get better results, and 0.1-1.0 µM can be used as a reference for setting the range. If the amplification efficiency is not high, the concentration of primer can be increased; if non-specific reaction occurs, the concentration of primer can be decreased to optimize the reaction system.(2) The final concentration of the probe used is related to the fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument used, the type of probe, and the type of fluorescent labeling substance, please refer to the instrument manual or the specific requirements for the use of each fluorescent probe to adjust the concentration.3) Because templates from different species contain different numbers of copies of the target gene, the template can be diluted in a gradient to determine the optimal amount of template to usePCR reaction conditionsmovetemptimingcirculatereverse transcription55°C1 min1premutability95°C10s1)1denaturation95°C1 s40-45Annealing/Extension55-60°C2)10-15s3)40-45Attention: (1) The enzyme used in this product is activated under the condition of pre-denaturation at 95℃ for 30s. Under this condition, most of the templates can be well unchained. For templates with high GC content and complex secondary structure, the pre-denaturation time can be extended to 1min, so as to make the starting template fully unchained, and if the high temperature treatment time is too long, it will affect the activity of the enzyme; for simple templates, pre-denaturation time of 1-10s can also be used, and the optimal pre-denaturation time can be determined according to the template situation.(2) It is recommended to use two-step PCR reaction program, the annealing temperature should be 55-60℃ as the reference range, and the annealing temperature can be increased when non-specific reaction occurs. If you can't get good results due to the use of primers with low Tm values or long amplification products, you can try three-step PCR amplification.3) Whether the actual Real Time PCR instrument used supports rapid amplification cycles, please perform a pre-experiment to verify this for the first attempt...

Avoid freeze/thaw cycle.DNA Molecular Weight Standard IIProduct IntroductionThis kit is a genotyping product for human Mycobacterium tuberculosis based on the latest research progress in molecular epidemiology1) and optimized by process. It utilizes variable-number tandem repeats (VNTR) polymorphisms in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis genome for genotyping to differentiate clinical strains, and is a powerful tool for studying the molecular epidemiology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and monitoring the status of tuberculosis transmission. Compared with other existing Mycobacterium tuberculosis VNTR typing systems based on the VNTR principle, this typing system has a stronger ability to discriminate strains prevalent in China1,2,3), and is therefore particularly suitable for the needs of Chinese users.By carefully optimizing the primer sequences of each PCR reaction and the composition of the premixed reaction solution, this product has a strong anti-interference power. Compared with the user's own reagents, this product significantly improves the signal intensity of specific bands and reduces the appearance of non-specific bands when using crude templates (boiling bacterial solution), which makes the experimental operation easier and quicker, and at the same time, improves the success rate of the test. The premixed reaction solution is chemically stable and can effectively withstand repeated freezing and thawing (10 times) and a longer period of time (one week) at room temperature, which is better adapted to the user's need for flexibility in the detection work.This kit is a companion product to the TB Genotyping Kit VNTR-9. For samples identified as clustered or identical strains by the VNTR-9 kit, this product can be used for finer further typing identification if necessary. The three high-resolution detection sites VNTR3820, VNTR4120 and VNTR3232 in this product can be used in combination with the nine detection sites in the VNTR-9 to increase the resolution index (Hunter-Gaston index (HGI) to 0.9931).References1) Luo T et al.

The strains to be tested should be tested by VNTR-9 typing test first, and then use this product for testing. And the results of this product should be integrated and analyzed with the results of VNTR-9.2.To avoid contamination, it is recommended that the preparation of the organisms be done within a different location than the preparation of the PCR Mix and that different pipettes be used.3.Care should be taken at all stages of sample DNA collection, extraction and amplification to ensure proper labeling and to prevent cross-contamination between different samples.4.Commonly used reagents and consumables need to be autoclaved before experimentation.5.Each tube of PCR Mix contains different primers and cannot be mixed. It can be dispensed into different amounts at once according to the experimental needs to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.6.To avoid splashing the reaction solution when opening the reaction tube, centrifuge briefly before opening the cap and collect the liquid at the bottom of the tube. In case of accidental splashing on gloves or table, change gloves immediately and wipe the table with 75% alcohol or dilute acid.7.Be careful not to cross-contaminate the PCR Mix when aspirating, and it is recommended that the pipette tip be wiped with 75% alcohol 2 times before taking Mix each time.8.Pre-experiment preparation: 1×TE buffer (PH=8.0), 0.5×TBE buffer, agarose, ethidium bromide (EB), normal PCR instrument, DNA electrophoresis equipment and gel imager, 0.2 ml PCR reaction tubes, octuplex or 96-well PCR tubes, pipettes of different sizes: 0.5-10 µl and 20-200 µl.Operation steps1. DNA template preparation:1.1. scrape a small amount (1-2 inoculation loops) of sample from solid medium, resuspend in 100ul TE and inactivate at 80°C for 30 minutes.1.2. The inactivated strain was taken out of the P3 laboratory as follows:Boil at 100°C for 10 minutes (be careful to avoid bursting the cap of the EP tube during boiling to avoid letting water into the tube), place immediately on ice for 2 minutes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 × g) for 10 minutes, take the supernatant and place in another sterile EP tube, label it, and store at -20°C.2. Testing procedures:2.1. Remove the TB Genotyping Kit HV-3, allow the liquid to equilibrate to room temperature, mix by shaking slightly 3-4 times, and then centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 5 seconds to allow the capped liquid to fall back into the tube.2.2.Three-locus VNTR typing: strains with identical results at 12 loci need to be further VNTR typed, i.e., the following four loci are added for comparison.1)PCR amplification: the reaction system was 20 µl. 19 µl of PCR Mix of VNTR3820, VNTR4120, and VNTR3232 were added to each PCR tube, 1 µl of DNA template was added, and mixed well.2)Amplification conditions:3) Gel preparation and electrophoresis:a: Notes:Important! Positive (H37Rv strain DNA) and negative controls (deionized water) need to be set up for each experiment.Key! This experiment is based on agarose gel electrophoresis to interpret the genotype of VNTR locus, therefore, in order to make the results accurate, it is necessary to follow the unified standard operation in this step of electrophoresis, and the following points should be noted:a-1: The comb used for glue making is 18 holes.a-2: The two wells on the left and right sides of the gel were discarded due to the tendency to distort the bands during electrophoresis, affecting the interpretation of the results, or a negative control was spotted in one of the wells. The remaining 16 wells were divided into 12 samples, 3 DNA Markers and 1 positive control. The order of spotting was "1, 2, M, 3, 4, 5, 6, M, 7, 8, 9, 10, M, 11, 12, H37Rv", the numbers represent samples, and M represents DNA Marker.a-3: When PCR amplification products are subjected to the first electrophoresis and Marker I is used, the gel concentration is 1%, the voltage is 150 V, and the time is 100-120 min.a-4: If the amplification product fragment is too large (>1000bp) and needs to be electrophoresed again and Marker II is used, the gel concentration is 0.8%, the voltage is 150V and the time is 150 minutes.b: Gluing as well as the electrophoresis process:PCR amplification products were electrophoresed using a 1% agarose gel.To prepare 1% agarose gel, 12×12 cm gel tray was used to make the gel, each gel was 80 ml.b-1: Weigh 0.8g of agarose, add 80ml of 0.5×TBE, weigh it on the balance and put it into the microwave oven, heat it on high for 2-3 minutes to make the agarose dissolve completely, shake it well, and observe it as a homogeneous and transparent solution without particles, then weigh it again on the balance and make up the appropriate amount of double-distilled water to keep the concentration of the gum unaffected.b-2: When the melted gel was cooled to about 55°C add 4 µl of ethidium bromide (10ug/ml) and gently swirl to mix well. The gel was made with an 18-tooth comb and the warm gel was poured into a 12 × 12 cm gel tray.b-3: Allow the gel to completely set (40 minutes at room temperature), carefully pull out the comb, remove the tray, and place it in the electrophoresis tank. Add 0.5× TBE buffer to the electrophoresis tank, not exceeding the gel surface by 1-2mm.b-4: Sample electrophoresis: add 12 samples to each gel (the topmost wells are not sampled), add 3-5µl PCR products to each well, and at the same time add three 5µl DNA MarkerⅠ to each gel. The voltage is 150V and the electrophoresis time is 100-120 minutes. This step is the key to the accuracy of the final readings of each point, and needs to be operated uniformly according to this standard.b-5: Some loci have amplification products greater than 1000bp in clinical strains, and these amplification products were then electrophoresed using 0.8% agarose gel, with DNA Marker II added as a control for the band size, voltage 150V, electrophoresis time 150 minutes.4) Results display:5) Analysis of results:a. If the genotypes of the three highly variable loci are also the same in different strains, they can be identified as clustered strains;b. If the high variant readings are highly similar, i.e., only 1-2 high variant sites are different, they need to be combined with epidemiologic data to identify if they are clustered strains;c. If all 3 high variant loci are genotypically discordant, identify as a single strain.Appendix 1: Rules for reading VNTR lociAppendix 2: VNTR locus repeat unit readout table...

It is easy to operate as it does not require the use of organic solvents such as phenol and chloroform for extraction. The kit uses a unique buffer system to enable efficient and specific binding of viral nucleic acids in lysate to silica gel centrifugal adsorption columns. Inhibitors of PCR and enzyme reactions as well as residual impurities can be efficiently removed in a two-step effective rinsing step, and finally high purity viral nucleic acids can be obtained by using a low-salt buffer or water for elution. The purified viral nucleic acid is free of protein, nuclease and other impurities, and can be used directly in PCR, RT-PCR, Real-Time PCR, blotting experiments and so on.Self-contained reagent: anhydrous ethanol.Pre-experiment and Important Notes1. Add 1.25ml Proteinase K Storage Buffer to Proteinase K to dissolve it and store it at -20℃. Do not leave the prepared Proteinase K at room temperature for a long time, and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to avoid affecting its activity. Do not add Proteinase K directly into Buffer GL.2. Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this may result in smaller DNA fragments and a decrease in the amount of extracted DNA.3. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of serum or plasma, which can lead to protein denaturation or precipitation, reducing the viral titer and thus affecting the yield of extracted viral nucleic acids.4. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to the label instructions of the reagent bottle before first use.5. Check Buffer GL for crystallization or precipitation before use. If crystallization or precipitation occurs, redissolve Buffer GL in a water bath at 56℃.Procedure1. Take a 1.5 ml centrifuge tube (self-provided) and add 20 µl Proteinase K.2. Add 200 µl serum or plasma to the centrifuge tube. Add 200µl Buffer GL and vortex and shake for 15 seconds.Note: 1) Sample volume less than 200 µl can be made up by adding 0.9% NaCl (self-provided). 2) In order to ensure effective lysis of the sample, the sample needs to be mixed well with Buffer GL after adding Buffer GL.3. Incubate at 56°C for 15 minutes, centrifuge briefly, and collect the solution from the wall of the tube to the bottom of the tube.4. 250 µl of anhydrous ethanol was added, vortexed and shaken for 15 seconds, left at room temperature for 5 minutes, centrifuged briefly, and the solution on the wall of the tube was collected at the bottom of the tube.Note: If the ambient temperature exceeds 25°C, anhydrous ethanol should be used after pre-cooling on ice.5. Add the solution obtained in step 4 to the adsorbent column (RNase-Free Columns RS) that has been loaded into the collection tube, and if the solution cannot be added at one time, it can be transferred in several times. centrifuge the column at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 × g) for 1 min, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the column back into the collection tube.6. Add 500 µl of Buffer GW1 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.7. 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. Add 500 µl of anhydrous ethanol to the adsorbent column and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min. Pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.9. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 3 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 the removal of residual ethanol from the adsorbent column; ethanol residue can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).10. Place the adsorption column in a new collection tube (RNase-Free Centrifuge Tube), add 20-150 µl of Buffer RE or sterilized water overhanging the middle of the adsorption column membrane, leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and then centrifuge it at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute to collect the nucleic acid solution.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 it should be ensured that its pH is 7.0-8.5 (the pH of water can be adjusted to this range with NaOH), and the elution efficiency is not high when the pH is lower than 7.0.(2) For long-term storage, please store the DNA solution at -20℃ and the RNA solution at -70℃.3) If the final concentration of DNA/RNA is to be increased, the DNA/RNA eluate obtained in step 10 can be re-spiked onto the adsorbent membrane and step 10 repeated...
