Enzymatic methods for determining glucose are commonly used in biochemical detection, with Glucose (Dextrose, Glu), chemical formula C₆H₁₂O₆, molecular weight 180.16, is the most widely distributed and important monosaccharide in nature, belonging to polyhydroxy aldehydes. Enzymatic methods for determining glucose are commonly used in biochemical detection, with the most frequently used being the glucose oxidase method and the hexokinase method. The characteristics of these enzymatic methods are:High sensitivity, accuracy, and precision;Use mild reaction conditions;Specific for glucose, not interfered with by other sugars and reducing substances;Simple operation;Suitable for automatic analyzers.Detection Principle: Under the catalysis of glucose oxidase, glucose is oxidized to gluconic acid, simultaneously consuming oxygen in the solution. The generated hydrogen peroxide reacts with an oxidative chromogen to form a red quinone compound. The amount of hydrogen peroxide produced in the initial reaction is proportional to the glucose concentration. Colorimetric determination is performed using a spectrophotometer at 505 nm. This kit is specifically designed for the quantitative determination of glucose content in human or animal serum, plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, cells, tissues, and other samples. It is not suitable for direct detection of glucose in urine.*Note: Glu Standard (5 mmol/L) = 90 mg/dL.*G1501761Component200TStorageG1501761APhenol Reagent80 mLRT.

Reagent PreparationShortly before use, mix the Phenol Reagent and Enzyme Reagent in equal volumes to prepare the GOD-POD Working Solution. Store at 4°C.2. Sample Preparation2.1 Serum, Plasma, Cerebrospinal Fluid SamplesSerum or plasma separated from the test sample should not be hemolyzed. Detect directly. If the concentration exceeds the linear range (30 mmol/L), dilute with normal saline or PBS before assay.2.2 Cell Samples(1) Take an appropriate amount of cells (generally recommended >10⁶), centrifuge at 1000 g for 10 min, discard the supernatant, keep the pellet.(2) Wash 1-2 times with PBS or normal saline, centrifuge at 1000 g for 10 min, discard the supernatant, keep the pellet.(3) Add 200-300 µL of PBS or normal saline and homogenize. Ultrasonicate on ice (power 300 W, 3-5 s each time, 30 s interval, repeat 3-5 times). The prepared homogenate should not be centrifuged.*Alternatively, manually homogenize (prepared homogenate should not be centrifuged). Or lyse with 1-2% Triton X-100 on ice for 30-60 min (prepared lysate should not be centrifuged).*2.3 Tissue SamplesAccurately weigh an appropriate amount of tissue. Add normal saline or PBS at a ratio of 1:9 (mass (g) : volume (mL)). Homogenize manually or mechanically on ice. Centrifuge at 2500-3000 g for 10 min. Collect the supernatant.3. Assay SetupRefer to the table below to set up Blank, Standard, and Test tubes. Add solutions sequentially, mix well, and incubate at 37°C in a water bath or 45°C in an incubator for 15 minutes.Reagent (mL)Blank TubeStandard TubeTest TubeddH₂O0.008//Glu Standard (5 mmol/L)/0.008/Test Sample//0.008GOD-POD Working Solution0.80.80.8 4. Measurement After cooling, transfer to a 1.0 mL cuvette. Measure the absorbance at 505 nm. Zero the instrument with the Blank tube. Read the absorbances of the Standard tube and Test tube, recorded as A standard and A test, respectively. 5. Result Calculation Glu (mmol/L) = A test / A standard × 5 Glu (mg/L) = A test / A standard × 900 Reference Interval Healthy adults fasting glucose: 3.9 - 6.1 mmol/L (70 - 110 mg/dL) *Note: Glu Standard (5 mmol/L) = 90 mg/dL = 900 mg/L*Precautions1. The prepared GOD-POD Working Solution should be stored at 4°C protected from light and is valid for 1 week. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles for low-temperature reagents to prevent inactivation or decreased efficiency.2. Use serum or plasma anticoagulated with potassium oxalate-sodium fluoride (inhibits glucose decomposition) for testing. Cerebrospinal fluid can be detected directly. If test samples cannot be assayed immediately, store at 2-8°C; stable for 3 days.3. Urine glucose is often quantified using this method, but cannot be detected directly. First, perform a semi-quantitative test on the urine sample using Benedict's method. Based on the approximate content, dilute the urine with distilled water so that the glucose content is below 3 mg/mL before detection. Multiply the result by the dilution factor. This is because untreated urine contains high concentrations of reducing substances like uric acid, which affect the peroxidase reaction and may cause falsely low results.4. Low-concentration samples will also turn red over time. Therefore, detection should be performed promptly after 15 minutes; the time should not be too long.5. Without zeroing the microplate reader, the typical reference range for the blank is 0.04-0.09, and for the 5 mmol/L standard is 0.25-0.45. Reference ranges may vary due to differences in instruments and operating methods.6. The lower detection limit of this kit is 0.1 mmol/L, and the upper limit is 30 mmol/L. Visual observation: concentration ≤ 0.6 mmol/L is almost colorless; concentration ≥ 0.7 mmol/L shows light red; concentration ≥ 2.5 mmol/L shows red. Generally, results are more accurate near the upper limit than near the lower limit.7. The linear range of this method can reach 30 mmol/L. If the sample glucose concentration is too high, the result may be falsely low. Dilute with normal saline or PBS and re-assay, multiplying the result by the dilution factor.8. Use reagents promptly after opening to avoid affecting subsequent experimental results.9. For your safety and health, please wear lab coats and disposable gloves during operation.10.

The kit also allows recovery of incompletely purified RNA, in vitro transcription and RNA from enzymatic reactions. high quality RNA with molecular weights greater than 200 bases can be extracted and purified using the kit with virtually no DNA residue. If RNA experiments that are very sensitive to trace DNA are to be performed, residual DNA can be removed by on-column digestion using RNase-free DNase. The extracted RNA can be used in downstream experiments such as RT-PCR, Nothern Blot and Dot Blot. Self-contained reagents: β-mercaptoethanol, anhydrous ethanol (freshly opened or for RNA extraction).Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. To prevent RNase contamination, attention should be paid to the following aspects:1) Use RNase-free plastics and tips to avoid cross-contamination.2) RNase-free water should be used to prepare the solution.(3) Operators wear disposable masks and gloves, and change gloves diligently during the experiment.2. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the extracted samples, otherwise it will affect the amount and quality of RNA extraction.3. Please add β-mercaptoethanol to Buffer RL before use, add 10µl of β-mercaptoethanol to 1ml of Buffer RL. Buffer RL with β-mercaptoethanol can be stored for 1 month at room temperature.4. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer RW2 before first use according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.5. Buffer RL may be heated at 56°C to dissolve if precipitation occurs and then left at room temperature.All centrifugation steps are performed at room temperature and all maneuvers are performed quickly.Procedure1. Sample handling1a Tissue: Grind tissue in liquid nitrogen. Add 600 µl Buffer RL for every 20-30 mg of tissue (check for addition of β-mercaptoethanol before use), and 350 µl Buffer RL for tissue samples of less than 20 mg. Sample volume is not to exceed one-tenth of the Buffer RL volume.1b Cells in monolayer culture: Lysed or processed into cell suspension directly in culture flask, centrifuged to obtain cell precipitate, discarded the supernatant, added 600µl Buffer RL for every 6-10 cm2 of culture area, 350µl Buffer RL for less than 6cm2, and blown several times repeatedly to make the cells lysed sufficiently.1c Cell suspension: centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 × g) for 1 min and discard the supernatant to obtain the cell precipitate. Add 600 µl Buffer RL for every 5×106-1×107 cells, and 350 µl Buffer RL for less than 5×106 cells, and blow several times repeatedly to fully lysate.Note: 1) Try to get rid of the cell culture medium, which may inhibit cell lysis affecting RNA yield.2) Try to keep the cells well suspended and well lysed, otherwise RNA yield is affected.2. After the sample is fully lysed, leave it at room temperature for 5 minutes to allow complete separation of the protein-nucleic acid complex.3. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2-5 min and remove the supernatant for the following operations.4. Add 1x volume (600µl or 350µl) of 70% ethanol (prepared without RNase water) to the solution obtained in step 3 and mix well.Note: The addition of ethanol may produce a precipitate that will not affect subsequent experiments.5. Add all of the solution obtained in the previous step to the Spin Columns RM in the collection tube. If you cannot add all of the solution to the column at once, transfer it in two passes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, and discard the waste solution. Place the column back into the collection tube.Note: The maximum loading capacity of the adsorption column is 100µg, do not overload as this will affect the yield and purity of the RNA.6. Add 350 µl Buffer RW1 to the adsorbent column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, discard the waste liquid and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.7. Preparation of DNase I mixture: Take 52 µl of RNase-Free Water, add 8 µl of 10×Reaction Buffer and 20 µl of DNase I (1 U/µl) to it, mix well, and prepare a final volume of 80 µl of reaction solution.8. Add 80µl of DNase I mixture directly to the adsorption column and incubate at 20-30°C for 15 minutes.9. Add 200 µl Buffer RW1 to the adsorbent column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, discard the waste liquid and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.10. Add 500µl Buffer RW2 to the column (check that anhydrous ethanol is added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the column back into the collection tube.11. Repeat step 10.12. 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 a few minutes to thoroughly dry the anhydrous ethanol in the adsorption column.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.).13. Transfer the adsorbent column into a new centrifuge tube, add 30-50 µl of RNase-Free Water to the middle of the adsorbent membrane, leave it at room temperature for 1 min, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, collect the RNA solution, and store the RNA at -70°C to prevent degradation.Note: 1) The volume of RNase-Free Wate should not be less than 30 µl, too small volume affects the recovery rate.2) If you want to increase the RNA yield, repeat step 13 with 30-50 µl of fresh RNase-Free Water.3) If the RNA concentration is to be increased, the resulting solution can be reintroduced into the adsorption column and step 13 repeated...

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...
