However, blood Product Introduction:Blood samples are an important source of biological information in clinical research. They contain circulating proteins from multiple tissues and organs, which are involved in a wide range of biological processes and can be used as biomarkers or drug targets. However, blood samples have problems such as complex types of proteins, a large dynamic range, and a high proportion of high-abundance proteins, which bring great difficulties to proteome detection. This kit enriches circulating proteins in plasma samples based on the immunomagnetic bead capture method. In downstream proteomics detection, it can reduce the coverage of low-abundance protein signals by high-abundance proteins, thereby increasing the signal intensity of low-abundance proteins and improving the number of identified proteins and the repeatability of quantification.Product Components and Storage Conditions:M1456358Component12T24T48TStorageM1456358AMagnetic beads Max225 µL450 µL900 µL4℃M1456358BIncubation Buffer I6.25 mL12.5 mL25 mLRTM1456358CIncubation Buffer II7.5 mL15 mL30 mLRTM1456358DWashing Buffer7.5 mL15 mL30 mLRTOperating Procedure:1.Centrifuge the plasma sample (3000g, 10min), and take the supernatant for later use (if storage is needed, store it at -80°C for long-term preservation to avoid repeated freezing and thawing).2.Take 50-100µL of centrifuged plasma, add 400µL of Incubation buffer I, then add 18µL of Magnetic beads, vortex to mix, and incubate at room temperature on a shaking mixer for 1h.3.After incubation, use a magnetic rack to magnetically attract for 3min, and discard the supernatant.4.Remove the EP tube, add 500µL of Incubation buffer II, gently invert up and down to mix several times, magnetically attract for 3min, and discard the supernatant.5.Remove the EP tube, add 500µL of Washing Buffer, gently invert up and down to mix several times, magnetically attract for 3min, and discard the supernatant.6.Add 50µL of Protein Lysis Buffer (P1408622) to the beads obtained in step 5.7.It can be processed according to the conventional proteomics pretreatment steps in the laboratory, or our Proteomics Pretreatment Kit (P1456469) (to be purchased separately) can be used for processing.Precautions:1.Magnetic beads will precipitate after standing.

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.

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...
