| 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...

It can be directly used for PCR, fluorescence quantitative PCR, enzyme digestion, and Southern Blot experiments.Self prepared reagent: anhydrous ethanol.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment:1. The sample should avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, otherwise it may result in smaller extracted DNA fragments and a decrease in extraction volume.2. This reagent kit can extract up to 0.1-1 mL of whole blood samples or 1 × 107 white blood cells.3.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.4. Before use, please check if there is any crystallization or precipitation in the Buffer GL. If there is any crystallization or precipitation, please incubate the Buffer GL in a 56 ℃ water bath and dissolve it again.5. The Buffer RCL in the reagent kit cannot be used again after being turbid.Operation steps:1. Sample processing: 1a When extracting 200 uL of blood sample, add the sample to the centrifuge tube (provided) and proceed directly to the next step of the experiment. 1b When the blood sample size is less than 200 µ When L, add Buffer GR to make up for 200 µ L. Proceed to the next step of the experiment. 1c When the blood sample size exceeds 200 µ When L is reached, add 1-2 times the volume of Buffer RCL, gently vortex or invert and mix well. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm (~13400 × g) for 1 minute and carefully discard the supernatant. If there is still red in the sediment, repeat the above steps once. Then add 200 to the precipitate µ Shake the buffer GR until thoroughly mixed before proceeding to the next step of the experiment. 1d If the processed blood sample is anticoagulant from poultry, birds, amphibians, or lower level organisms, its red blood cells are nucleated cells, and the blood sample size is 5-20 µ L. Can be added to Buffer GR to make up to 200 µ Follow up experiments will be conducted afterwards. Note: If downstream experiments are sensitive to RNA, 4 can be added µ L RNase A (100mg/mL) solution, shake for 15 seconds, and leave at room temperature for 5 minutes. RNase A reagent kit is not provided. If needed, you can order it separately from our company, item number: CW0601S.2. Add 20 to the above solution µ L Protein K, mix well.3. Add 200 µ Shake with L Buffer GL until thoroughly mixed. Note: Do not pre mix Protein K and Buffer GL.4.Incubate at 4.56 ℃ for 10 minutes, invert and mix several times during this time. Attention: The DNA production has reached its maximum after 10 minutes of incubation, and further extension of incubation time has no effect on DNA production and purity.5. Add 200 µ L anhydrous ethanol, invert and mix several times. Short centrifugation causes the liquid on the tube wall and wall cover to concentrate at the bottom of the tube.6. Add all the solution obtained in step 5 to the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube. If the solution cannot be added at once, it can be transferred multiple times. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.7. Add 500 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer GW1 (check if anhydrous ethanol is added before use), centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube. Note: If the extracted sample is the blood genome of species such as mice or monkeys that are difficult to remove heme, it is recommended to repeat step 7.8. Add 500 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer GW2 (check if anhydrous ethanol is added before use), centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube. Note: To further improve DNA purity, repeat step 8.9.Centrifuge at 9.12000 rpm for 2 minutes and discard the waste liquid from the collection tube. Place the adsorption column at room temperature for a few minutes to thoroughly air dry. 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 in a new centrifuge tube (provided by oneself) and add 50-200 to the middle of the adsorption column in the air µ L Buffer GE or sterilized water, leave at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, collect DNA solution, and store DNA at -20 ℃. Note: 1) If downstream experiments are sensitive to pH or EDTA, they can be washed off with sterilized water. The pH value of the eluent has a significant impact on the elution efficiency. If water is used as the eluent, its pH value should be ensured to be between 7.0-8.5 (NaOH can be used to adjust the pH value of the water to this range). When the pH value is below 7.0, the elution efficiency is not high. 2) If the final concentration of DNA needs to be increased, the obtained DNA eluent can be added back to the adsorption membrane, left at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and centrifuged at 12000 rpm for 1 minute. 3) Because DNA stored in water is affected by acidic hydrolysis, if long-term storage is required, it is recommended to elute with Buffer GE and store at -20 ℃...

The optimized buffer system enables DNA to bind heterogeneously to the silica matrix centrifugal adsorption column, and the inhibitors of PCR and other enzymatic reactions can be effectively removed by a two-step washing step, and finally eluted with a low-salt buffer or water to obtain high-purity DNA.The purified obtained can be directly used for enzyme digestion, PCR, Real-Time PCR, library construction, Southern Blot, molecular labeling and other downstream experiments.Self-contained reagent: anhydrous ethanolPre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this may result in smaller fragments of extracted DNA and a decrease in the amount extracted.2. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the label of the reagent bottle before first use.3. Before use, please check whether Buffer GL appears to be crystallized or precipitated.Redissolve in a 56°C water bath.4. If the downstream experiments are sensitive to RNA contamination, 4 µL DNase-Free RNase A can be added in step 3(100 mg/mL).5. For prolonged storage of salivary DNA at room temperature, our Salivary DNA Preservation Tubes are recommended.Operation steps1. Add 400 µL of saliva sample or saliva/preservation solution mixture.Note: 1) Saliva mixtures added to the preservation solution require a 50°C water bath for 1 hour or an empty 50°C temperature chamber for 2 hours prior to extraction.2) If an increase in sample volume is required, multiply the volumes of Proteinase K, Buffer GL, and anhydrous ethanol in Steps 2-4, and the liquid can be transferred in multiple times in Step 5.2. Add 40 µL of Proteinase K.3. Add 400µL Buffer GL, vortex and shake to mix thoroughly, and water bath at 56℃ for 15-30 minutes.Note: If RNA removal is required, add 4 µL of RNase A solution at a concentration of 100 mg/mL after the above steps are completed, vortex for 15 seconds, and leave at room temperature for 2 minutes.4. Centrifuge briefly to remove water droplets from the inside of the tube cap. Add 400 µL of anhydrous ethanol and mix well by vortexing and shaking. Centrifuge briefly.Note: 1) Vortex and shake to mix immediately after adding Buffer GL and anhydrous ethanol.The addition of Buffer GL and anhydrous ethanol may produce a white precipitate that will not affect subsequent experiments.2) A sol-gel product may be formed after GL and anhydrous ethanol, in which case vigorous shaking or vortexing is recommended.3) The solution obtained in the previous step is added to the adsorption column in the Collection Tube.5. (Spin Column DM) in the collection tube, and if the solution cannot be added all at once, it can be transferred in several times. centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (∼13,400 × g) for 1 min, pour off the waste solution in the collection tube, and put the adsorption 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. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 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 to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column, which can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).9. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube (supplied), add 50-200 µL of Buffer GE or sterilized water to the middle of the adsorption column overhanging the column, let it stand at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute to collect the DNA solution.-20°C to preserve DNA.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 should ensure that its pH is 7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH of the water to this range), and the elution efficiency is not high when the pH is lower than 7.0.2) Buffer GE preheated in a 65-70°C water bath and incubated at room temperature for 5 min before centrifugation can increase the yield.3) Because DNA preserved in water is subject to acidic hydrolysis, for long-term storage, elution with Buffer GE and storage at -20°C is recommended...
