The most accurate method to detect cell proliferation is the BrdU method. Edu detection kit is a revolutionary breakthrough of BrdU method. Edu (5-Cell proliferation detection is a basic experimental method to evaluate the health of cells, genotoxicity and the effect of antitumor drugs. The most accurate method to detect cell proliferation is the BrdU method. Edu detection kit is a revolutionary breakthrough of BrdU method. Edu (5-ethynyl-2 '- deoxyuridine) is a pyrimidine analog that integrates into the DNA duplex during DNA synthesis. Edu detection is based on the "click" reaction. A copper catalyzed azide reacts covalently with alkynes to form covalent bonds. In this kit, edu contains alkynes, Aladdin ® 488 / 555/594/647a azide dyes contain azide compounds. The edu labeling proliferation of click method is rapid and effective, and easy to use. BrdU method requires DNA denaturation (such as acid denaturation, thermal denaturation or digestion with DNase) to expose BrdU, so as to facilitate BrdU antibody binding; The edu method only needs paraformaldehyde fixation and Triton X-100 penetration to make the detection reagent enter the cells, and only a small amount of azide dye is needed to label the integrated edu very effectively. This kit contains all components required for edu method detection, and can be used for proliferation detection of cultured cells in vitro.Component:Product parameters：555/565 nm；Instruction： Experimental materials (self provided). 10 mM PBS, pH 7.2-7.6. 4% paraformaldehyde fixing solution (in PBS)Propensive reagent (0.5% Triton X -100 in PBS). 2 mg/mL glycine solution (in ddH2O). 3% BSA in PBS, pH 7.2-7.6. 1% BSA in PBS, pH 7.2-7.6. ddH2O. 96/24/12/6 well culture plate or dishFluorescence microscopy detection method1.

The viral RNA specifically binds to the siliconThis reagent kit uses an adsorption column that can specifically bind to viral RNA and a unique buffer system, suitable for isolating viral RNA from cell-free body fluids such as serum, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, and cell culture supernatants. The viral RNA specifically binds to the silicon substrate membrane, and pollutants flow through the membrane. Completely remove impurities such as proteins through two efficient washes, and then wash high-purity viral RNA with RNase free water or RNase Free Water provided by the reagent kit. The virus RNA extracted by this kit can be directly used for experiments such as RT-PCR, Real time RT-PCR, and Western blot analysis.

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. Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer RW2 according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.5. If buffer GL precipitates, it can be heated at 56 ℃ to dissolve and then placed at room temperature.6.
