Direct detection of DNA synthesis in cells is considered the most accurate method for assessing cell proliferation. EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) is a novel thymidine (thymine deoxyribonucleoside) analogue. During DNA synthesis, EdU can be incorporated into newly synthesized DNA in place of thymidine. The ethynyl group on EdU can undergo a covalent reaction with fluorescently labeled small-molecule azide probes (such as Azide Alexa Fluor 488, Azide Alexa Fluor 555, Azide Alexa Fluor 594, Azide Alexa Fluor 647, etc.) via Cu(I)-catalyzed click chemistry, forming a stable triazole ring. This reaction is highly efficient and is referred to as the Click reaction. Through this process, newly synthesized DNA is labeled with the corresponding fluorescent probes, enabling the detection of proliferating cells using appropriate fluorescence detection equipment. Usage Protocol1. Preparation1) Preparation of Click Additive Solution: For a 50-test kit: Add 12.5 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. For a 100-test kit: Add 25 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. For a 200-test kit: Add 50 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. After preparation, aliquot the solution as needed and store at -20°C. If a white precipitate forms after dissolution, invert the tube repeatedly until it is fully dissolved before use. If the solution turns brown, it indicates degradation of the active component; discard it.2) Upon initial dissolution of the Click Reaction Buffer, aliquot it according to the number of samples per experiment and store at -20°C.2. EdU Labeling of CellsIt is recommended to use a final EdU concentration of 10 µM (1×). A 1:500 dilution of EdU (10 mM) in cell culture medium yields a 2× EdU working solution (20 µM). Mix an equal volume of pre-warmed (37°C) 2× EdU working solution (20 µM) with the cell suspension to achieve a final 1× EdU concentration. Incubate in a 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator. Factors such as cell culture medium, cell density, cell type, and other experimental conditions may affect labeling efficiency. Therefore, the optimal EdU concentration and labeling duration must be empirically determined based on the cell type under investigation.3. Fixation and Permeabilization1) Harvest cells and centrifuge at 300 ×g for 5 min. Wash cells twice with PBS containing 2% FBS.2) Fix cells with 4% paraformaldehyde solution. Mix thoroughly and incubate for 15 min at room temperature protected from light.3) Collect cells and centrifuge at 300 × g for 5 min. Wash cells twice.4) Resuspend cells in PBS containing 0.1% Triton X-100. Mix well and incubate for 15 min at room temperature.5) Centrifuge at 300 × g for 5 min and wash cells twice.4. Fluorescent Labeling1) This protocol is based on a 500 µL reaction system per 2 × 10⁶ cells. The volume of the Click reaction mixture can be adjusted according to the experimental sample size.2) Centrifuge the cells at 300 ×g for 5 minutes. Add 500 µL of Click reaction mixture per sample, mix gently, and incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature protected from light.3) After the reaction, wash the cells twice with PBS containing 2% FBS.4) Dilute the DAPI Staining Solution (1000×) to 1× using PBS containing 2% FBS. Add 250 µL of the diluted DAPI solution to each sample and incubate for 5 minutes at room temperature.5) Add an additional 250 µL of PBS containing 2% FBS, mix gently, and proceed to detection using an appropriate flow cytometry instrumentPrecautions1. Strictly adhere to the component order and volumes specified in the table above when preparing the Click reaction mixture, as deviations may affect subsequent experimental results.2. The Click reaction mixture must be used within 15 minutes of preparation.3. To avoid fluorescence quenching, perform detection as soon as possible after sample preparation...

These endonucleases will cut off genomic DNA between nucleosomes and produce 180 bp-200 BP DNA fragments, which appear as a specific ladder pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. When double strand or single strand breaks occur in When apoptosis occurs, some DNA endonucleases will be activated. These endonucleases will cut off genomic DNA between nucleosomes and produce 180 bp-200 BP DNA fragments, which appear as a specific ladder pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. When double strand or single strand breaks occur in genomic DNA, a large number of sticky 3'-oh ends will be generated, which can interact with YF under the catalysis of deoxyribonucleotide terminal transferase (TDT) ®/ CY dUTP binding can directly detect apoptotic cells by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. This kind of method is called terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL). Because normal or proliferating cells have almost no DNA breaks, there is no 3'-oh formation and they can rarely be stained. TUNEL method can stain intact single apoptotic nuclei or apoptotic bodies in situ, can accurately reflect the typical biochemical and morphological characteristics of apoptosis, and can detect a very small number of apoptotic cells, so it is widely used in the study of apoptosis. This kit has a wide range of applications and can be used to detect apoptosis in frozen or paraffin sections, as well as cultured adherent cells or suspended cells. It can selectively detect apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks caused by irradiation and drug treatment. This kit detects cell apoptosis with a short time-consuming, one-step staining reaction and can be detected after washing.Composition: Composition 20T 50T A. aladdin®640 TUNEL Reaction Buffer 1 mL 2 ×1.25 mL B.

Through a rapid and simple three-step process of binding, washing, and elution, 100 bp-10 kb DNA fragments can be purified and recovered from PCR products or enzyme reaction solutions (enzyme cutting, linking, probe labeling, etc.). Each adsorption column can adsorb up to 10 kb of DNA fragments µ G DNA, while minimizing impurities such as primers, oligonucleotides, enzymes, etc. The purified and recovered DNA has high purity and concentration, good integrity, and high recovery rate, and can be directly used for molecular biology experiments such as sequencing, linking and transformation, labeling, and in vitro transcription.Self prepared reagent: anhydrous ethanol.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment:1. All components can be stably stored in a dry, room temperature (15-30 ℃) environment for 1 year, and can be stored at 2-8 ℃ for longer periods of time. When the solution is stored at low temperature, it should be left at room temperature for a period of time before use, and then restored to room temperature before use.2. This reagent kit can selectively recover all DNA fragments from the solution. If you need to selectively recover specific fragments while removing other fragments of different sizes, please choose our company's gel recovery reagent kit.3.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to the Buffer PW according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.4. Before use, please check if there is any crystallization or precipitation in the Buffer PB. If there is any crystallization or precipitation, you can take a water bath at 37 ℃ for a few minutes to restore clarity.5. The recovery efficiency is related to the initial amount of DNA and the elution volume. The smaller the initial amount, the smaller the elution volume, and the lower the recovery rate.6. All centrifugation steps can be performed at room temperature.Operation steps:1. Estimate the volume of DNA reaction solution, add 5 times the volume of Buffer PB, and mix thoroughly (without removing paraffin or mineral oil).Note: 1) If the DNA reaction system is 50 µ l (excluding paraffin oil volume), add 250 µ l Buffer PB.2) After adding Buffer PB, check the pH value of the solution. If the pH value is greater than 7.5, add 10-30 to it µ 3 M sodium acetate (pH 5.0) was used to adjust the pH value to 5-7.2. Column balance: Add 200 to the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube µ Centrifuge at 13000 rpm (~16200 × g) for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.3. Add the solution obtained in step 1 to the adsorption column that has been loaded into the collection tube, let it stand at room temperature for 1 minute, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 30-60 seconds, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column in the collection tube.Attention: The volume of the adsorption column is 750 µ l. If the sample volume is greater than 750 µ l, it can be added in batches.4. Add 500 µ l of Buffer PW to the adsorption column (please check if anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 30-60 seconds, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column in the recovery tube.Note: If purified DNA is used for salt sensitivity experiments (such as flat end ligation experiments or direct sequencing), it is recommended to add Buffer PW and let it stand for 2-5 minutes before centrifugation.5.13000 rpm for 1 minute 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.). To ensure that downstream experiments are not affected by residual ethanol, it is recommended to open the cover of the adsorption column and place it at room temperature for a few minutes to thoroughly dry the residual ethanol in the adsorbent material at the bottom.6. Place the adsorption column into a new centrifuge tube (provided by oneself), add 30-50 µ l Buffer EB to the middle position of the adsorption membrane by hanging droplets, and let it stand at room temperature for 1 minute. Centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute and collect DNA solution- Store DNA at 20 ℃.Attention:1) 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 (the pH value of water can be adjusted to this range using NaOH).2) To improve the recovery of DNA, the solution obtained by centrifugation can be added back to the adsorption column, left at room temperature for 2 minutes, and centrifuged at 13000 rpm for 1 minute.3) The elution volume should not be less than 30 µ l. A small volume will affect the recovery efficiency... Read More | Inquire |
