While PI staining alone can observe the sub-G1 peak of apoptotic cells on the DNA histogram, it can only The Hoechst33258/PI Apoptosis Assay Kit is a detection kit that uses a dual fluorescence staining method with Hoechst 33258 and Propidium Iodide (PI) to analyze cell cycle and cell necrosis. While PI staining alone can observe the sub-G1 peak of apoptotic cells on the DNA histogram, it can only represent apoptosis in the G0/G1 phase and cannot observe apoptosis in the S and G2 phases. Moreover, after fixation, it is impossible to distinguish between live and dead cells. Hoechst 33258 can penetrate the cell membrane and bind to DNA in both normal and apoptotic cells, showing blue fluorescence under ultraviolet light. After staining, the fluorescence of apoptotic cells is significantly enhanced compared to normal cells. PI cannot penetrate the cell membrane and cannot stain normal or apoptotic cells with intact cell membranes. However, for necrotic cells, where the integrity of the cell membrane is lost, PI can penetrate the cell membrane and color the necrotic cells to produce red fluorescence. When these two dyes are used for double staining, normal cells appear weak blue, apoptotic cells appear bright blue, and necrotic cells appear bright blue and red.ComponentH1492197Component100TStorageQuantity Per TestH1492197AHoechst 33258 Staining Solution1 mL-20℃, Store in the dark.10 µL per 0.5-1.0x10⁶ H1492197BPropidium iodide Staining Solution (PI)0.5 mL-20℃, Store in the dark.5 µL per 0.5-1.0x10⁶ Note: The recommended number of cells to stain per test 0.5–1.0×10⁶ cells.Usage method:1.

Product Introduction This product is a specialized kit for one-step Real-Time RT-qPCR using the probe method (TaqMan, Molecular Beacon, etc.). When using this product for Real Time RT-qPCR reaction, reverse transcription and quantitative PCR are carried out in the same reaction system, and there is no need to add reagents or open the cap of the tube during the reaction process, which avoids contamination and improves the experimental efficiency at the same time. With high detection sensitivity, strong fluorescence signal and high signal-to-noise ratio, this product is very suitable for the detection of RNA viruses and other trace RNA. The special buffer system contained in this product can maximize the effectiveness of reverse transcriptase and DNA polymerase at the same time and improve the efficiency of the reaction. A wider linear range can be obtained with this product, more accurate quantification of the target gene, good reproducibility and high confidence.ROX dye is used to correct the fluorescence signal error generated between wells of a quantitative PCR instrument, and is generally used in Real Time PCR amplifiers from ABI, Stratagene, and other companies. The excitation optics vary from instrument to instrument, so the concentration of ROX dye must be matched to the corresponding fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument. Instruments that do not require ROX calibration (G665836) Roche LightCycler 480, Roche LightCyler 96, Bio-rad iCyler iQ, iQ5, CFX96 and others. Instruments that require High ROX calibration (G665801) ABI Prism 7000/7300/7700/7900, Eppendorf, ABI Step One/Step One Plus, and others.matters needing attention1.Before using the reagents in this kit, please mix them gently by turning them up and down to avoid foaming as much as possible, and use them after brief centrifugation.2.This product uses RNA as the template for one-step RT-PCR experiment, RNase contamination should be avoided during operation, it is recommended to operate RNA in a special area, use special instruments and consumables, the operator with a mask and disposable gloves and often change the gloves, the experiment-related consumables should be processed with 0.1% DEPC (diethyl ether pyrocarbonate) aqueous solution for 12 hours at 37℃, and autoclaved for 30 minutes before use.

The unique separation column is used for homogenization and filtration of high viscosity plant or fungal lysates, while the silicon matrix membrane is used to adsorb the RNA for purification, so that various contaminants, such as polysaccharides, are effectively removed by washing, and the eluted RNA can be directly used in various downstream experiments. The molecular weight of RNA extracted by this kit is more than 200 bases, with high purity and almost no DNA residue. For RNA experiments that are very sensitive to trace DNA, the residual DNA can be removed by digestion on a column using RNase-free DNase. The extracted RNA can be used in Northern Blot, Dot Blot, RT-PCR and in vitro translation experiments.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. To prevent RNase contamination, attention should be paid to the following aspects:1) Use RNase-free plastics and tips to avoid cross-contamination.(2) Glassware should be dry-roasted at 180°C for 4 hours before use, and plasticware can be soaked in 0.5M NaOH for 10 minutes, rinsed thoroughly with water and autoclaved.3) RNase-free water should be used to prepare the solution.(4) Operators wear disposable masks and gloves, and change gloves diligently during the experiment.3. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the extracted samples, otherwise it will affect the amount and quality of RNA extraction.4. Please add β-mercaptoethanol to Buffer RL before use, add 10µl of β-mercaptoethanol to 1ml of Buffer RL, it can be stored for 1 month at room temperature. Buffer RL with β-mercaptoethanol can be stored at room temperature for 1 month. β-mercaptoethanol is not required for use of Buffer RLC.5. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer RW2 before first use according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.6. If precipitation occurs in Buffer RL and Buffer RLC, heat to dissolve and leave at room temperature.7. All centrifugation steps are carried out at room temperature and all steps are performed quickly. Procedure1. 50-100 mg of plant tissue is quickly ground to a powder in liquid nitrogen and added to 600 µl of Buffer RL (check for addition of β-mercaptoethanol before use) or Buffer RLC. vortexing and oscillating to allow for adequate lysis.Note: 1) The main component of Buffer RL is guanidine isothiocyanate, which is suitable for lysis of most plant tissues. However, in some plant tissues (e.g. endosperm of corn), due to the special secondary metabolites, guanidine isothiocyanate causes precipitation of the sample, resulting in poor RNA extraction, in this case, Buffer RLC can be added instead of Buffer RL.2) Incubation at 56°C for 1-3 minutes helps tissue lysis, but do not incubate at high temperatures for plants with high starch content.2. Transfer all the liquid obtained in step 1 to an adsorption column (Spin Columns FL) that has been loaded into a collection tube, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 2 minutes, and transfer the supernatant from the collection tube to a new centrifuge tube (supplied).Note: 1) The tip of the tip of the gun can be cut off when aspirating liquids to facilitate sampling.2) Spin Columns FL removes most of the debris, but a small portion will still flow out and a precipitate will form in the collection tube after centrifugation, so be careful to avoid aspirating the precipitate when proceeding to the next step.3. Add 0.5 times the volume of anhydrous ethanol to the clean lysate obtained in step 2 and mix rapidly.Note: Precipitation may occur upon addition of ethanol, but does not affect subsequent tests.4. Transfer the solution obtained in the previous step to the Spin Columns RM in the collection tube. If it is not possible to add all of the solution to the column at one time, centrifuge the column at 12,000 rpm for 15 seconds in two batches, discard the waste solution and put the column back into the collection tube.5. 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.6. Preparation of DNase I mixture: Take 52µl of RNase-Free Water, add 8µl of 10×Reaction Buffer and 20µl of DNase I (1U/µl) to it, mix well, and make a final volume of 80µl of reaction solution.7. Add 80µl of DNase I mixture directly to the adsorption column and incubate at 20-30°C for 15 minutes.8. Add 350 µl of Buffer RW1 to the adsorption column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid and put the column back into the collection tube.9. Add 500 µl of Buffer RW2 to the column (check that anhydrous ethanol is added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 15 seconds, and discard the waste solution.10. Repeat step 9.11. Place the adsorbent column back into the collection tube, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, and allow the column to come to room temperature for a few minutes to thoroughly dry out the anhydrous ethanol in the adsorbent column.Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column; ethanol residue can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (zymography, PCR, etc.).12. Load the adsorption 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 minute, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, and store the resulting RNA solution at -70°C to prevent degradation.Note: 1) The volume of RNase-Free Water 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 12 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 12 repeated...
