This kit contains Calcein-AM and Propidium Iodide (PI) solutions, which stains viable and dead cells, respectively(Fig. 1). Calcein-AM, an acetoxymethyl ester of calcein, is highly Calcein AM /PI Double Staining Kitis utilized for simultaneous fluorescence staining of viable and dead cells. This kit contains Calcein-AM and Propidium Iodide (PI) solutions, which stains viable and dead cells, respectively(Fig. 1). Calcein-AM, an acetoxymethyl ester of calcein, is highly lipophilic and cell membrane permeable. Though Calcein-AM itself is not a fluorescent molecule, the calcein generated from Calcein-AM by esterase in a viable cell emits a strong green fluorescence (excitationat 490 nm, emission at515 nm). Therefore, Calcein-AM only stains viable cells. On the other hand, PI, a nuclei staining dye, cannot pass through a viable cell membrane. It reaches the nucleus by passing through disordered areas of dead cell membrane, and intercalates with the DNA double helix of the cell to emit red fluorescence (excitation: 535 nm,emmision: 617 nm). Since both calcein and PI-DNA can be excited with 490 nm, simultaneous monitoring of viable and dead cells is possible with a fluorescence microscope. With 545 nm excitation, only dead cells can be observed (Fig. 1). Since optimal staining conditions differ from cell line to cell line, we recommend that a suitable concentration of PI and Calcein-AM be individually determined. Please note that PI is suspected to be highly carcinogenic;careful handling is required.Required Equipment and Materials:Microscope with 490 nm excitation filter and 530 nm emission filter；CO2incubator；10 µl and 200 µl adjustable pipettes, PBSSolution A (Calcein-AM)；Solution B (PI) Storage Condition: -20oC ；Shipping Condition: blue ice.Application:Assay Procedure1)Add 2.5 µl Solution A and 12.5 µl Solution B to 5 ml PBS to prepare assay solution.*2)Wash the cell with PBS several times to remove residual esterase activity.3)Add 100uLof assay solution to200uL105~106CELLSsolution and incubate the mixture at 37oC for 15 min.4)Detect fluorescence using a fluorescence mircoscope with 490 nm excitationfor simultaneous monitoring of viable and dead cells.With 545 nm excitation, only dead cells can be observed.*The following steps may be necessary tooptimizethe suitable concentration of each reagent:1)Prepare dead cells by 10 min incubation in 0.1% saponin or 0.1-0.5% digitonin or by 30 min incubation in 70% ethanol.2)Stain dead cells with 0.1-10 µM PI solution to find a PI concentration that stains the nucleus only, not the cytosol.3)Stain dead cells with 0.1-10 µM Calcein-AM solution to find a Calcein-AM concentration that does not stain the cytosol.

Add 200 to the centrifuge tube containing bacterial sediment µ Buffer P1 (please check if RNase A has been added first), mix thoroughly with a pipette or vortex oscillator, and suspend bacterial precipitation.Attention: If the bacterial blocks are not thoroughly mixed, it will affect the cracking effect, resulting in low extraction amount and purity.3. Add 200 to the centrifuge tube µ Buffer P2, gently invert and mix 8-10 times to fully lyse the bacterial cells. At this point, the solution should become clear and viscous.Attention: Mix gently and do not shake vigorously to avoid interrupting genomic DNA and mixing genomic DNA fragments in the extracted plasmid. If the solution does not become clear, it indicates that the bacterial count may be too large and the lysis may not be complete. The bacterial count should be reduced or the dosage of P1, P2, E3, and isopropanol should be increased proportionally.4.

This product can process up to 300 mg of fecal samples and purify to obtain mainly 20-30 kb DNA fragments. The purification process does not require toxic solvents such as phenol or chloroform, and does not require ethanol precipitation. High purity DNA can be obtained within one hour. This reagent kit adopts a unique buffering system to efficiently bind DNA from the lysis solution to the adsorption column. At the same time, protein impurities and other organic compounds that inhibit downstream reactions in feces can flow through the membrane. Inhibitors of PCR and enzyme reactions, as well as residual impurities, can be effectively removed through two washing steps. Finally, high-purity DNA can be obtained by washing with low salt buffer or water. The purified DNA can be directly used for downstream experiments such as enzyme digestion, PCR, Real Time PCR, library construction, Southern Blot, and molecular labeling.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment1.
