Hydroxyl radicals act on biological molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids within the body, damaging cellular structure and function, which can lead to metabolic disorders and disease. The hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity is a key indicator of antioxidant ability and is widely used in research on antioxidant health products and pharmaceuticals.Detection Principle: H₂O₂/Fe²⁺ generates hydroxyl radicals via the Fenton reaction. Salicylic acid effectively captures these generated hydroxyl radicals and reacts with them to produce a purple compound, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid. When a substance capable of scavenging hydroxyl radicals is added, it inhibits the formation of this purple product. Therefore, a darker color indicates a higher hydroxyl radical content, and vice versa. The change in absorbance at 520 nm is measured to calculate the sample's hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity.Applicable Samples: Animal and plant tissues, serum (plasma), cells, bacteria, cell culture supernatants, fruit juice, honey, urine, and other samples.P1501782Component48 T96 TStorageP1501782AFerrous Salt10 mL20 mL2-8℃.

The kit eliminates the need for phenol/chloroform extraction and is safe to handle. The extracted genomic DNA fragments are large, high purity, stable and reliable quality, suitable for PCR, fluorescence quantitative PCR, molecular labeling, library construction and other 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 LP3 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the label of the reagent bottle before first use. Check Buffer LP1 and Buffer LP2 for crystallization or precipitation before use. If crystallization or precipitation occurs, re-dissolve Buffer LP1 and Buffer LP2 in a 56°C water bath. Procedure1. Take about 100mg of fresh plant tissue or about 20mg of dry weight tissue and add liquid nitrogen to grind it fully.2. Collect the ground powder into a centrifuge tube (self-provided), add 400 µl Buffer LP1 and 6 µl RNase A (10 mg/ml), vortex and oscillate for 1 minute, and leave it at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow for full cleavage.Note: 1) Use vortex shaking or pipette blowing to fully lyses the tissue, incomplete tissue lysis will affect the final DNA yield. 2) Do not mix Buffer LP1 with RNase A prior to use.3. Add 130 µl Buffer LP2, mix well and vortex for 1 minute.4. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 5 minutes and transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube (supplied).5. Add 1.5 times the volume of Buffer LP3 (check that anhydrous ethanol has been added before use) and mix thoroughly (e.g., 500 µl filtrate to 750 µl Buffer LP3).Note: Buffer LP3 should be mixed immediately after addition; precipitation may occur but will not affect subsequent experiments.6. Add all of the solution and precipitate obtained in the previous step to the adsorption columns (Spin Columns DM) that have been loaded into the collection tubes, if the solution cannot be added all at once, it can be transferred in several times. centrifuge the columns at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tubes, and put the columns back into the collection tubes.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: If the adsorbent membrane appears green, add 500 µl of anhydrous ethanol to the adsorbent column, centrifuge the column at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.8. Repeat step 7.9. 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.).10. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube (supplied), add 50-100 µl of Buffer GE or sterilized water dropwise to the middle of the adsorbent membrane, leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and centrifuge it at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute to collect the DNA solution. -The DNA solution was collected by centrifugation at 12,000 rpm for 1 min.Note: 1) If the downstream experiment is sensitive to pH or EDTA, you can use sterilized water for elution. The pH value of the eluent has a great influence on the elution efficiency, if you use water as the eluent, you should ensure that the pH value is 7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH value of the water to this range), and when the pH value is lower than 7.0, the elution efficiency is not high.2) Incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes prior to centrifugation increases yield.(3) If the final concentration of DNA is to be increased, the DNA eluate obtained in step 10 can be re-added to the adsorbent membrane and repeat step 10; if the elution volume is less than 100µl, the final concentration of DNA can be increased, but it may reduce the total DNA yield. If the amount of DNA obtained is less than 1µg, 50µl Buffer GE is recommended for elution.4) Because DNA stored in water is subject to acidic hydrolysis, for long-term storage, elution with Buffer GE and storage at -20°C are recommended...

Add 1.25 ml of Protein K Storage Buffer to Protein K to dissolve it and store at -20 ℃. The prepared Protein K should not be left at room temperature for a long time to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which may affect its activity.2. To prevent RNase pollution, attention should be paid to the following aspects:1) Use RNase free plastic products and gun heads to avoid cross contamination.2) Glassware should be dry baked at a high temperature of 180 ℃ for 4 hours before use, while plastic containers can be soaked in 0.5 M NaOH for 10 minutes, thoroughly rinsed with water, and then sterilized under high pressure.3) Prepare the solution using water without RNase.4) Operators should wear disposable masks and gloves, and change gloves frequently during the experiment.3. Serum or plasma should avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles that may cause protein denaturation or precipitation, reduce viral titers, and thus affect the yield of extracted viral nucleic acids.4.
