| 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 kit eliminates the need for phenol/chloroform extraction and is safe to handle. The extracted genomic DNA fragments are large, high purity, stable and reliable quality, suitable for PCR, fluorescence quantitative PCR, molecular labeling, library construction and other experiments.Self-contained reagent: anhydrous ethanolPre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. Repeated freezing and thawing of the sample should be avoided, as this may result in smaller fragments of extracted DNA and a decrease in the amount extracted.2. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer LP3 and Buffer GW2 according to the instructions on the label of the reagent bottle before first use. Check Buffer LP1 and Buffer LP2 for crystallization or precipitation before use. If crystallization or precipitation occurs, re-dissolve Buffer LP1 and Buffer LP2 in a 56°C water bath. Procedure1. Take about 100mg of fresh plant tissue or about 20mg of dry weight tissue and add liquid nitrogen to grind it fully.2. Collect the ground powder into a centrifuge tube (self-provided), add 400 µl Buffer LP1 and 6 µl RNase A (10 mg/ml), vortex and oscillate for 1 minute, and leave it at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow for full cleavage.Note: 1) Use vortex shaking or pipette blowing to fully lyses the tissue, incomplete tissue lysis will affect the final DNA yield. 2) Do not mix Buffer LP1 with RNase A prior to use.3. Add 130 µl Buffer LP2, mix well and vortex for 1 minute.4. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm (~13,400 x g) for 5 minutes and transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube (supplied).5. Add 1.5 times the volume of Buffer LP3 (check that anhydrous ethanol has been added before use) and mix thoroughly (e.g., 500 µl filtrate to 750 µl Buffer LP3).Note: Buffer LP3 should be mixed immediately after addition; precipitation may occur but will not affect subsequent experiments.6. Add all of the solution and precipitate obtained in the previous step to the adsorption columns (Spin Columns DM) that have been loaded into the collection tubes, 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 liquid in the collection tubes, and put the columns back into the collection tubes.7. Add 500 µl of Buffer GW2 to the adsorption column (check that anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Note: If the adsorbent membrane appears green, add 500 µl of anhydrous ethanol to the adsorbent column, centrifuge the column at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.8. Repeat step 7.9. 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 subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).10. Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube (supplied), add 50-100 µl of Buffer GE or sterilized water dropwise to the middle of the adsorbent membrane, leave it at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and centrifuge it at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute to collect the DNA solution. -The DNA solution was collected by centrifugation at 12,000 rpm for 1 min.Note: 1) If the downstream experiment is sensitive to pH or EDTA, you can use sterilized water for elution. The pH value of the eluent has a great influence on the elution efficiency, if you use water as the eluent, you should ensure that the pH value is 7.0-8.5 (you can use NaOH to adjust the pH value of the water to this range), and when the pH value is lower than 7.0, the elution efficiency is not high.2) Incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes prior to centrifugation increases yield.(3) If the final concentration of DNA is to be increased, the DNA eluate obtained in step 10 can be re-added to the adsorbent membrane and repeat step 10; if the elution volume is less than 100µl, the final concentration of DNA can be increased, but it may reduce the total DNA yield. If the amount of DNA obtained is less than 1µg, 50µl Buffer GE is recommended for elution.4) Because DNA stored in water is subject to acidic hydrolysis, for long-term storage, elution with Buffer GE and storage at -20°C are recommended...

It is easy to operate, has high detection sensitivity, low background, does not require the addition of secondary antibodies, and has strong system stability. The conventional Western Blot indirect detection process (blocking, primary antibody binding, and secondary antibody binding) requires a long time, a complex experimental process, and requires multi-step condition optimization. After transferring the protein on the gel to the carrier membrane, incubate it with the blocking solution in the reagent kit for 5 minutes, and then incubate the carrier membrane with the primary antibody treated with antibody reaction solution. After washing three times (5 minutes each time), luminescence or colorimetric detection can be performed. This reagent kit is designed for use in experimental systems where the target protein primary antibody is derived from mice.Notes:1. The customer prepares their own mouse source primary antibody.2. Before using Blocking Buffer blocking solution, Antibody Pretreat Solution (HRP/Mouse) antibody reaction solution (mouse), 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 (mouse) needs to be determined through preliminary experiments.6. The antibody reaction solution HRP (mouse), 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. It is recommended not to reuse antibodies with poor specificity and affinity. 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/Mouse) 100 µ Add mouse 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 (mouse) 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/Mouse), and Dilution Buffer to the membrane (ensuring that the incubation solution completely submerges the surface of the membrane). Incubate at room temperature on a shaker at around 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.Application examples:Example 1 Antigen is 293T cell lysateA: Normal WB control: beta actin mouse monoclonal antibody (CW0096) 5 µ Incubate at room temperature for 40 minutes, wash the film and dilute the secondary antibody sheep anti mouse HRP (CW0102) 1:10000.
