| 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.

The product can handle liquid samples of 0.1-1 ml, and the elution volume of the configured high-efficiency micro adsorption column can be as low as 20 µl. The purified DNA is of high yield and quality, with maximum removal of proteins, pigments, lipids, and other inhibitors, and the rate of free DNA yield is highly dependent on the type of samples, storage conditions, time, and inter-individual variations. The quality of free DNA obtained from purification is stable and reliable, and can be directly used in molecular biology experiments such as PCR, fluorescence quantitative PCR and second generation sequencing.Self-contained reagents: anhydrous ethanol, isopropanol.Pre-experiment Preparation and Important NotesAdd 5 ml of 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.Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this can lead to a decrease in extraction.This kit can extract 0.1-1 ml of liquid samples.Before use, please check Buffer CL, Buffer CB for crystallization or precipitation, if there is any crystallization or precipitation, please re-dissolve Buffer CL, Buffer CB by incubation at 56℃ in a water bath.Before first use isopropyl alcohol should be added to Buffer CB according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label, mixed well, and labeled on the reagent bottle label.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer GW1 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the label of the reagent bottle, mixed well, and labeled on the label of the reagent bottle.Preheat the water bath to 60°C before starting the experiment.The elution buffer Buffer EBL can be preheated to 60°C and used.Operation stepsAdd 20 µl of Proteinase K to the centrifuge tube (supplied).Add 200 µl of serum/plasma sample.Note: When the sample volume exceeds 200 µl, please increase the amount of Proteinase K, Buffer CL and Buffer CB reagents in equal proportions, and the specific amount of reagents added can be referred to the attached table.3. Add 160 µl Buffer CL, mix upside down and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds.4. Incubate at 60°C for 30 minutes, during which time mixing was inverted several times.Note: Incubation of 200µl serum/plasma samples at 60°C for 10-15 minutes is sufficient.Add 360 µl of Buffer CB (check for addition of isopropanol before use) and shake until thoroughly mixed.Ice bath for 5 minutes and centrifuge briefly to concentrate the liquid on the walls and wall caps to the bottom of the tube.Add all of the solution obtained in step 6 to the adsorption columns (Spin Columns DF) that have been loaded into the collection tubes, and if the solution cannot be added all at once, it can be transferred in several times. centrifuge the columns at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste solution from the collection tubes, and put the columns back into the collection tubes.Add 500µl of Buffer GW1 to the adsorbent column (check that anhydrous ethanol is added before use),centrifuge the column at 12,000rpm for 30 seconds, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.Add 750 µl Buffer GW2 to the adsorbent column (check that anhydrous ethanol is added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 30 seconds, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.10. Add 750 µl of anhydrous ethanol to the adsorbent column and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 30 s. Pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.11. 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 several minutes to dry thoroughly.Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column, which can interfere with the subsequent enzymatic reaction.12. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube, add 20-100 µl Buffer EBL or sterilized water to the middle part of the adsorption column overhanging the column, leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, collect the DNA solution, and store the DNA at -20℃.Note: 1) If the downstream experiment is sensitive to pH, you can use sterilized water for elution. The pH value of the eluent has a great influence on the elution efficiency, if water is used as the eluent should ensure that its pH value is 7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH value of water to this range), and the elution efficiency is not high when the pH value is lower than 7.0.2) Preheat the elution buffer BufferEBL to 60℃ and use it, and incubate it at room temperature for 5 minutes before centrifugation to increase the yield.3) If the final concentration of DNA is to be increased, the resulting solution can be reintroduced into the adsorption column and left at room temperature for 2-5 minutes and centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute.4) Because DNA preserved in water will be affected by acidic hydrolysis, for long-term storage, it is recommended to elute it with Buffer EBL and store it at -20℃.Table: Recommended reagent additions for different sample sizes...

Product Introduction：The one-step rapid WB assay kit (rabbit) is the latest Western Blot detection kit developed by Kangwei Century, which canObtain high-quality Western Blot results within about 1 hour, with simple operation, high detection sensitivity, low background, and noAdditional secondary antibodies need to be added, with strong system stability. The conventional Western Blot indirect detection process (blocking, primary antibody binding)Combining with secondary antibodies requires a long time, a complex experimental process, and requires multi-step optimization of conditions. The protein on the glue is transferred toAfter coating the carrier membrane, incubate it with the blocking solution in the reagent kit for 5 minutes, and then incubate the carrier with the primary antibody treated with antibody reaction solutionAfter washing the membrane three times (5 minutes each time), it can undergo luminescence or color detection. This reagent kit is designed for target protein oneThe use of an experimental system derived from rabbits.Notes:1. Customers need to prepare their own rabbit source primary antibody.2. Before using Blocking Buffer blocking solution, Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Rabbit) antibody reaction solution (rabbit), and Wash Buffer (10 x) rinse solution, please mix thoroughly.3. If there is precipitation in the rinsing solution when stored at 2-8 ℃, please restore it to room temperature, dissolve the precipitation, and use it normally. The 1x rinsing solution can be stored at room temperature for one month.4. It is recommended to stain the membrane with reagents such as spring red after the transfer is completed, and cut off any excess parts on the membrane to increase the efficiency of the reagents.5. The optimal dilution amount for primary antibody and antibody reaction solution HRP (rabbit) needs to be determined through preliminary experiments.6. Antibody reaction solution HRP (rabbit), antibody dilution solution, and antibody dosage can be increased or decreased proportionally according to the size of the membrane.7. The antibody dilution solution containing the first antibody can be recycled and reused once. Antibodies with low specificity and affinity are not recommended for repeated use. If the recovered antibody is used within 1-2 days and stored at 2-8 ℃ for long-term storage, please freeze it at -20 ℃ to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.8. If there is a high background, please adjust the amount of antibodies and increase the number of times the film is washed.9. All reagents in the reagent kit should be stored at 2-8 ℃ to avoid freezing and thawing.Operation steps:This product is suitable for the sealing and antibody incubation steps after membrane transfer, taking a 5 cm x 8 cm membrane as an example:1. Preparation of rinsing solution: Dilute 10 ml of Wash Buffer (10 x) with distilled water to 100 ml, which is 1 x Wash Buffer. Set aside. Use 8-10 ml for each film wash.2. Sealing: After the membrane transfer is completed, immerse the membrane in 10 ml Blocking Buffer and seal at room temperature for 5 minutes.3. Rinse: Pour off the sealing solution, add 8-10 ml of 1 x Wash Buffer, and rinse at a high speed on a shaker for 1 minute.4. Prepare antibody incubation solution while washing the membrane: Take Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Rabbit) 100 µ Add rabbit derived primary antibody 3-10 into the centrifuge tube µ g. Suck and beat the gun head until thoroughly mixed, and incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. Add to 10 ml Dilution Buffer and mix well. Note: 1) The dosage of primary antibody can also be adjusted according to the dilution of the antibody. Taking the final dilution of antibodies at 1:1000 as an example, take 100 µ Add HRP (rabbit) antibody reaction solution into the EP tube and add 10 µ Add the first antibody to 10 ml of antibody diluent, mix well, and incubate at room temperature for 5 minutes. 2) If the membrane area is small, the amount of antibodies, reaction solution, and diluent can be reduced proportionally.5. After completing step 3, pour out the rinsing solution and add the antibody incubation solution mixed with primary antibody, Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Rabbit), and Dilution Buffer to the membrane (ensuring that the incubation solution completely submerges the membrane surface). Incubate at room temperature on a shaker at a speed of about 60 rpm for 40 minutes.6. Discard (recover) the antibody incubation solution and rinse 3-5 times with the prepared 1 x Wash Buffer, each time for 3 minutes.7. Conduct subsequent testing. It is recommended to use ECL or DAB methods for testing.Example 1: Antigen 293T cell lysateA: Ordinary WB control: beta actin rabbit antibody (CW0097) 3.3ug incubated at room temperature for 40 minutes, washed with membrane, secondary antibody sheep anti rabbit HRP (CW0103) diluted at 1:10000, room temperature for 40 minutes, ECL (CW0049) exposed Example 2 Antigen is 293T cell lysateC: Ordinary WB control: PAK1, Epitomics rabbit monoclonal antibody 1:1000, incubated at room temperature for 40 minutes, washed with membrane, secondary antibody sheep anti rabbit HRP (CW0103) diluted at 1:10000, room temperature for 40 minutes, ECL (CW0049) exposedD: One step WB: Epitomics rabbit monoclonal antibody was incubated at 1:1000 room temperature for 40 minutes, and ECL (CW0049) was exposed...
