| Description | Acridine Orange (AO) is a metachromatic fluorescent dye whose emission color varies depending on the target it binds to:When binding to double-stranded DNA: It intercalates between base pairs and emits green fluorescence upon excitation (Ex 488 nm, Em 530 nm).When binding to single-stranded RNA or Acridine Orange (AO) is a metachromatic fluorescent dye whose emission color varies depending on the target it binds to:When binding to double-stranded DNA: It intercalates between base pairs and emits green fluorescence upon excitation (Ex 488 nm, Em 530 nm).When binding to single-stranded RNA or lysosomes: It attaches via electrostatic interactions and emits orange-red fluorescence (Em 640 nm).Under a fluorescence microscope, Acridine Orange permeates the membranes of normal cells, staining the nucleus with uniform green or yellow-green fluorescence. In apoptotic cells, due to chromatin condensation and fragmentation into apoptotic bodies, AO stains them with intense, condensed yellow-green fluorescence or fragmented yellow-green particles. In necrotic cells, the yellow-green fluorescence is reduced or absent.Acridine Orange is often used in combination with Propidium Iodide (PI) for dual staining. Since PI stains only dead cells, producing orange-red fluorescence, this method allows differentiation among normal, apoptotic, and necrotic cells.ComponentsA1456513Component50 Test100 TestStorage ConditionQuantity Per TestA1456513ADilution Buffer10 mL50 mL2-8℃0.1 mL per 0.5-1.0 × 10⁶ cellsA1456513BAO Staining Solution100 µL500 µL2-8℃, Protect from light. Do not freeze1 µL per 0.5-1.0 × 10⁶ cellsNote: The recommended number of cells to stain per test is 0.5-1.0 × 10⁶ cells.Procedure1. Preparation of Acridine Orange Staining Solution b. Mix the AO Staining Solution with the Dilution Buffer at a ratio of 1:1000 to prepare the working solution. For example, add 10 µL of AO Staining Solution to 10 mL of Dilution Buffer to obtain 10 mL of Acridine Orange staining solution. 2. Staining with Acridine Orangea. For adherent cells: (a) Gently aspirate the culture medium from the plate. Rinse with PBS for about 10 seconds, then remove PBS. (b) Add Acridine Orange staining solution and incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. Remove the staining solution and rinse with PBS for about 10 seconds. Repeat the rinse once. Note: For adherent cells cultured in a 6-well plate with a confluence exceeding 80%, it is recommended to add the staining working solution at a volume of 1 mL per well. This volume can be optimized based on the specific experimental system.(c) Incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. (c) Add an appropriate amount of cell culture medium, staining buffer, or other suitable solution to cover the well bottom. Observe under a microscope. Depending on the detection requirements, green fluorescence can be observed at Ex/Em = 488/530 nm, and red fluorescence can be observed at Ex/Em = 540/640 nm. Alternatively, measure fluorescence intensity using a fluorescence microplate reader with bottom-reading capability.b. For suspension cells: (a) Take 1 mL of cell suspension. Centrifuge at 500g for 5 minutes at room temperature. Gently aspirate the medium, resuspend in PBS, and centrifuge again at 500g for 5 minutes. Remove PBS. (b) Add an appropriate amount of Acridine Orange staining solution to achieve a cell density of approximately 10⁶ cells/mL.(c) Incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. (d) A drop of the sample was directly applied onto a glass slide, covered with a coverslip, and examined under a microscope. Depending on the detection requirements, green fluorescence can be observed at Ex/Em = 488/530 nm, and red fluorescence can be observed at Ex/Em = 540/640 nm. Alternatively, after staining, analyze directly by flow cytometry or measure fluorescence with a microplate reader.Note: Centrifugation to remove staining solution can reduce background fluorescence. For suspension cells or adherent cells in suspension, consider reducing the AO staining solution concentration by 2–5 times and shortening the staining time to 2 minutes.Precautions1. AO Staining Solution is toxic. Handle with care. 2. For your safety and health, wear a lab coat and disposable gloves. 3. Fluorescent dyes are susceptible to quenching. It is recommended to complete detection on the same day after staining... Read More | The content of this cell is too long for an XLSX file (more than 32767 characters).

Do not leave the prepared Proteinase K at room temperature for a longtime, and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to avoid affecting its activity.2. Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this may resultin smaller DNA fragments and a decrease in the amount of extracted DNA. 3.This kit can extract up to 1-5 ml of whole blood samples, if you need to extracta large number of blood samples, please use the blood genome non-column extractionkit. 4. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to theinstructions on the label of the reagent bottle before first use.5. Please check Buffer GL for crystallization or precipitation before use, if thereis any crystallization or precipitation, please put it in 56℃water bath to re-dissolve.6. If the downstream experiments are sensitive to RNA contamination, 4µl of DNaseFree RNase A (100mg/ml) can be added, RNase A is not provided in the kit, and canbe ordered separately from our company if needed.7. The Buffer RCL in the kit cannot be used further after turbidity.procedure1. Add 1-5 ml of blood sample to a centrifuge tube (supplied) and add 3 times thevolume of Buffer RCL and gently vortex or invert to mix.2. Centrifuge at 3000 rpm (~900 x g) for 10 minutes and carefully aspirate thesupernatant.3. Add 400 µl Buffer GR to the precipitate and resuspend the precipitate. Note: If the downstream assay is sensitive to RNA, add 4 µl of RNase A (100 mg/ml)solution, shake for 15 seconds, and leave at room temperature for 5 minutes.4. For 1-2 ml blood sample extraction, add 40µl Proteinase K to the above solutionand mix well; for 2-5 ml blood sample extraction, add 100µl Proteinase K to theabove solution and mix well.5. Add 400 µl of Buffer GL, mix upside down 15 times, and vigorously vortex andshake for at least 1 minute. Note: Do not add Proteinase K directly to Buffer GL.6. Incubate at 70°C for 10 minutes, during which time mixing was inverted severaltimes.Note: 1) If the solution is not completely clear, add appropriate amount of Proteinase K and incubate. Extend the incubation time until the solution is completely clear. 2) The yield of DNA has been maximized by 10 minutes of incubation, and continuedprolongation of the incubation time has no effect on DNA yield or purity.7. Add 400 µl of anhydrous ethanol and mix upside down 10 times. Centrifuge brieflyto concentrate the liquid on the walls and cap to the bottom of the tube.8. Add all of the solution obtained in the previous step to the Spin Columns DL inthe collection tube. If the solution cannot be added all at once, transfer it severaltimes. centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquidfrom the collection tube, and put the column back into the collection tube.9. Add 500 µl of Buffer GW1 to the adsorption column (check that anhydrous ethanolis added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquidin the collection tube, and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Note: It is recommended that step 9 be repeated if the sample being extracted isthe blood genome of a species such as mice or monkeys from which hemoglobin isdifficult to remove.10. Add 500 µl Buffer GW2 to the adsorption column (check that anhydrous ethanolis added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquidin the collection tube, and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Note: Step 10 can be repeated if further DNA purity is required.11. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes and pour off the waste liquid in thecollection tube. Leave the adsorption column at room temperature for several minutesto dry thoroughly. Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorptioncolumn, which can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR,etc.)12. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube, add 50-200 µl of BufferGE or sterilized water to the middle of the adsorption column overhanging the column,leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute,collect the DNA solution, and store the DNA at -20℃.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 theelution efficiency, if water is used as the eluent should ensure that its pH is7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH of the water to this range), and the elutionefficiency is not high when the pH is lower than 7.0.2) Incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes prior to centrifugation increasesyield.3) Re-elution with an additional 50-200 µl Buffer GE or sterilized water can increase the yield.4) If the final concentration of DNA is to be increased, the DNA eluate obtainedin step 12 can be re-spiked onto the adsorbent membrane and centrifuged at 12,000rpm. 1min; if the elution volume is less than 200µl, the final concentration of DNA canbe increased, but the total yield may be reduced. If the amount of DNA is less than1 µg, elution with 50 µl Buffer GE or sterilized water is recommended.5) Because DNA preserved in water is subject to acidic hydrolysis, for long-termstorage, it is recommended that it be eluted with Buffer GE and stored at -20℃...

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...
