| Description | Glycogen is a macromolecular polysaccharide composed of glucose and serves as one of the primary storage forms of sugar. It is mainly stored in the liver and muscles as reserve energy, referred to as liver glycogen and muscle glycogen, respectively. Liver glycogen regulates blood glucose Glycogen is a macromolecular polysaccharide composed of glucose and serves as one of the primary storage forms of sugar. It is mainly stored in the liver and muscles as reserve energy, referred to as liver glycogen and muscle glycogen, respectively. Liver glycogen regulates blood glucose concentration; when blood sugar rises, glycogen can be synthesized in the liver, and when blood sugar decreases, liver glycogen is broken down into glucose to supplement blood sugar. Therefore, liver glycogen is crucial for maintaining the relative balance of blood glucose. Muscle glycogen is the storage form of sugar in muscles. During strenuous exercise that consumes large amounts of blood sugar, muscle glycogen cannot be directly broken down into blood sugar but must first decompose to produce lactic acid, which circulates to the liver via the bloodstream and is converted into liver glycogen and glucose through gluconeogenesis. Detection Principle: Glycogen is extracted using a strong alkaline extraction buffer. Under strong acidic conditions, it forms a blue compound with the anthrone chromogen, which has a characteristic absorption peak at 620 nm. Within a certain concentration range, the glycogen content is linearly related to the absorbance at 620 nm. The glycogen content in the sample can be calculated based on the standard curve.

On the basis of cell lysis by alkaline lysis method, it adopts unique silicon matrix membrane adsorption technology to bind plasmid DNA efficiently and exclusively, and each adsorption column can adsorb up to 250 µg of plasmid DNA; at the same time, it adopts a special buffer system and endotoxin removal filter to effectively remove endotoxin, genomic DNA, RNA, protein and other impurities. The plasmids obtained from this kit are of high purity and stable quality, and can be used for cell transfection, as well as DNA sequencing, PCR, in vitro transcription, endonuclease digestion and other experiments.Self-contained reagents: anhydrous ethanol, isopropanol.Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. All components are stable for 1 year in a dry, room temperature (15-30°C) environment, and longer by placing the adsorption columns at 2-8°C. Buffer P1 with RNase A is stable for 6 months at 2-8°C.2. Before the first use, add all of the RNase A solution to Buffer P1, mix well, and store at 2-8°C. Before use, it needs to be left at room temperature for a period of time, return to room temperature and then use.3. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer PW before the first use according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.4. Please check Buffer P2 and Buffer E3 for crystallization or precipitation before use. If there is any crystallization or precipitation, the clarification can be restored by taking a water bath at 37℃ for a few minutes.5. Be careful not to touch Buffer P2 and Buffer E3 directly, and tighten the lid immediately after use.6. The amount and purity of extracted plasmid is related to the concentration of bacterial culture, strain type, plasmid size, plasmid copy number and other factors.7. The adsorption columns treated with Buffer PS should be used immediately to avoid leaving them for too long.Operation steps1.Take 15-50 ml of fresh bacterial solution from the overnight culture, add it to a centrifuge tube (self-prepared) and centrifuge at 5000 × g for 10 minutes to collect the bacteria, and aspirate all the supernatant as much as possible.2.Add 2.5 ml of Buffer P1 to the centrifuge tube in which the bacterial precipitate has been left (please check that RNase A has been added first) and suspend the bacterial precipitate by mixing thoroughly using a pipette or vortex shaker. Note: If the bacterial mass is not thoroughly mixed, it will affect the lysis effect and make the extraction amount and purity low.3.Add 2.5 ml of Buffer P2 to the centrifuge tube, mix gently up and down 8-10 times to fully lyse the organisms, and leave at room temperature for 3-5 minutes. At this point the solution should become clear and viscous. Note: Mix gently, do not shake vigorously, so as not to interrupt the genomic DNA and cause genomic DNA fragments to be mixed in the extracted plasmid. If the solution does not become clear, it suggests that the amount of bacteria may be too large and the lysis is not complete, and the amount of bacteria should be reduced.4.Add 2.5 ml of Buffer E3 to the centrifuge tube and mix immediately by turning up and down 8-10 times, at which time a white flocculent precipitate appears. Note: Buffer E3 should be mixed immediately after addition to avoid localized precipitation.5.Install the cap of the filter (Endo-Remover FX), transfer the solution obtained in step 4 to the filter, wait until the white flocculent precipitate floats on the upper layer of the solution, remove the cap of the filter, align the filter with a clean 15 ml centrifuge tube (supplied), and slowly push the handle (Plungers) to filter, so that as much as possible of the solution passes through, and the filtrate is collected in the centrifuge tube.6.Add 1/3 solution volume of isopropanol to the filtrate and mix upside down.7.Column Equilibrium: Add 1ml Buffer PS to the adsorption column (Spin Columns DX) that has been loaded into a 15ml centrifuge tube, centrifuge for 2 minutes at 2500 x g. Pour off the waste liquid from the centrifuge tube and put the adsorption column back into the centrifuge tube.8.The mixture of filtrate and isopropanol from step 6 was transferred to the equilibrated adsorption column (which had been loaded into a collection tube).9.Centrifuge at 2500 x g for 1 minute, pour off the waste solution in the collection tube and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube. Note: The maximum volume of the adsorption column is 4 ml, so the solution obtained in step 8 is passed through the column in 2 times.10.Add 2 ml of Buffer PW to the adsorption column (please check that anhydrous ethanol has been added first), centrifuge at 2500 × g for 1 min, and pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube.11.Repeat step 10.12.The adsorbent column was put back into the collection tube and centrifuged at 2500 × g for 2 min, the waste liquid was poured off, and the column was left to dry at room temperature for 5 min.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. Place the adsorption column in a new 15 ml centrifuge tube, add 0.5-1 ml Endo-Free Buffer EB to the middle of the adsorbent membrane, leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge it at 2500 × g for 2 minutes, and collect the plasmid solution into the centrifuge tube. -20°C to store the plasmid.Note: 1) In order to increase the recovery efficiency of the plasmid, the obtained solution can be reintroduced into the adsorption column, left at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuged at 2500 x g for 2 minutes, and the plasmid solution can be collected into a centrifuge tube.2) When the plasmid copy number is low or >10kb, Endo-Free Buffer EB can increase the extraction efficiency by preheating at 65-70°C in a water bath...

We also have transposase library construction kits for 50 ng and 1 ng of human genomic DNA starting, in order to get a higher quality library, it is recommended to use different kits for different starting amount of DNA. Products IntroductionThis kit is developed for Illumina's high-throughput sequencing platform and provides the enzyme premix system and reaction buffer for genomic DNA library construction, including all components except PCR primers. Compared with the traditional library construction kits, this kit adopts the new transposase method for library construction, which can complete DNA fragmentation, end repair and junction reaction in one simple enzymatic reaction, significantly reducing the amount of template, reducing the number of experimental steps, and shortening the time of library construction; it adopts the high-fidelity DNA polymerase for library enrichment, and the preference-free PCR amplification can expand the coverage area of the sequence, which can be used for efficient and effective sequencing. The use of high-fidelity DNA polymerase for library enrichment and preference-free PCR amplification broadens the coverage area of the sequence and enables efficient preparation of DNA libraries for Illumina's second-generation sequencing platform. The kit is suitable for use with a starting template DNA input of 5 ng, and all reagents in the kit have been subjected to stringent quality control and functional validation to maximize the stability and reproducibility of library construction. Product Features● DNA fragmentation and junction ligation in one step.● Ultra-fidelity amplification minimizes amplification preference.Provide your own instruments, kits and consumables1. Magnetic frame: DynaMagTM-2 is recommended.2. DNA purification and recovery kit: It is recommended to use DNA purification and recovery kit by magnetic bead method.3. Library PCR primer kit: It is recommended to use transposase method for second generation sequencing multi-sample primer kit.4. Anhydrous ethanol, deionized water (pH between 7.0 and 8.0).5. Reaction tubes: It is recommended to use low adsorption PCR tubes and 1.5 ml centrifuge tubes. Tips: It is recommended to use high quality filter tips to prevent contamination of kits and library samples. Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of reagents.2. PCR products are easily contaminated due to improper operation, resulting in inaccurate results. It is recommended to isolate the PCR reaction system preparation area from the PCR product purification area, and to use special pipettes to clean the experimental areas at regular intervals.3. Bead purification: the beads should be equilibrated to room temperature before use, all operations on the beads should be carried out at room temperature, 80% ethanol should be dispensed freshly, the beads should be rinsed and dried until the surface is free of liquid reflections and has a frosted appearance, insufficient drying of the beads will cause ethanol residue that will affect the subsequent experiments, and over-drying of the beads will affect the efficiency of DNA recovery.4. The kit is suitable for human genomic DNA library construction, if the DNA sample is a PCR product, it should be ensured that its length>.500 bp, since transposases do not work on DNA ends, it is recommended to extend the PCR product by 50-100 bp at each end of the PCR product to avoid low coverage of the ends for sequencing. Sample PreparationDNA purity requirements: A260/A280 = 1.8-2.0. Sample DNA: dissolve in ultrapure water. DNA Quantification: Too much or too little DNA will affect the quality of the library. It is recommended to use Nano to test the purity of the genomic DNA and then use Qubit to test the concentration of the genome (do not use any absorbance-based assay for template quantification).
