Please use the CSV format for this export | 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 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.

Due to the high sensitivity of eukaryotic cells to endotoxins, the presence of endotoxins in plasmids can greatly reduce the transfection efficiency of eukaryotic cells. This reagent kit provides a simple, fast, and efficient new method for extracting endotoxin free plasmids. The extracted plasmids remove endotoxins to the maximum extent possible and can effectively remove contamination of genomic DNA, RNA, proteins, etc. The operation is simple and convenient. This reagent kit is suitable for extracting 1-5mL of bacterial solution. On the basis of alkaline lysis of cells, it efficiently and specifically binds plasmid DNA through a new silicon-based membrane. Each adsorption column can adsorb up to 40% µ The plasmid DNA of g is effectively removed using a special buffer system and endotoxin removal filter column, effectively removing impurities such as endotoxins and proteins. The plasmid obtained from this kit has high purity and stable quality, making it particularly suitable for cell transfection. It can also be used for downstream experiments such as DNA sequencing, PCR, PCR based mutations, in vitro transcription, transformed bacteria, and endonuclease digestion.Self prepared reagents: anhydrous ethanol, isopropanol.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment：1. All components can be stably stored for 1 year in a dry, room temperature (15-30 ℃) environment. The adsorption column can be stored for a longer time at 2-8 ℃. Buffer P1 with RNase A added can be stably stored for 6 months at 2-8 ℃. 2. Before the first use, add all RNase A solution to Buffer P1, mix well, and store at 2-8 ℃. Before use, let it sit at room temperature for a period of time. After returning to room temperature, use.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 Buffer P2 and Buffer E3. If there is any crystallization or precipitation, you can take a water bath at 37 ℃ for a few minutes to restore clarity.5. Be careful not to come into direct contact with Buffer P2 and Buffer E3, and immediately cover them tightly after use.6.The amount and purity of plasmid extraction are related to factors such as bacterial culture concentration, strain type, plasmid size, and plasmid copy number.Operation steps：1. Take 1-5 mL of overnight cultured bacterial solution and add it to a centrifuge tube (provided). Centrifuge at 13000 rpm (~16200 × g) for 30 seconds to collect bacteria, and try to discard all the supernatant as much as possible.2. Add 250 to the centrifuge tube containing bacterial sediment µ L 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 250 to the centrifuge tube µ L Buffer P2, gently invert and mix 8-10 times, allowing the bacterial cells to fully lyse. Leave at room temperature for 3-5 minutes. 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 high and the lysis may not be complete. The bacterial count should be reduced.4. Add 250 to the centrifuge tube µ L Buffer E3, immediately invert and mix 8-10 times until white flocculent precipitates appear. Let it stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. Centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 5 minutes, extract the supernatant, and add it to a filter column (Endo Remove FM). Centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute to filter, and collect the filtrate in a centrifuge tube (self provided).Attention: After adding Buffer E3, it should be mixed evenly immediately to avoid local precipitation. 5. Add 225 to the filtrate µ Mix L isopropanol upside down.6. Column balance: Add 200 to the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube µ L Buffer PS, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.7. Transfer the mixed solution of filtrate and isopropanol from step 5 to an equilibrium adsorption column (already loaded into a collection tube).8.13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.Attention: The maximum volume of the adsorption column is 750 µ L. If the sample volume is greater than 750 µ L can be added in batches. 9. Add 750 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer PW (please check if anhydrous ethanol has been added first), centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, and discard the waste liquid in the collection tube.10. Place the adsorption column back into the recovery manifold and centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute. 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.).11. Place the adsorption column in a new collection tube and add 50-100 to the middle of the adsorption membrane µ L Endo Free Buffer EB, let it stand at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 2 minutes, and collect the plasmid solution into a centrifuge tube- Store the plasmid at 20 ℃.Note: 1) To increase the efficiency of plasmid recovery, the obtained solution can be added back to the adsorption column, left at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuged at 13000 rpm for 2 minutes, and collected into a centrifuge tube.2) When the plasmid copy number is low or>10 kb, preheating the Endo Free Buffer EB in a water bath at 65-70 ℃ can increase the extraction efficiency...

We also have transposase library construction kits for human genomic DNA starting at 5 ng and 1 ng, so it is recommended to use different kits for different starting amounts of DNA in order to obtain higher quality libraries. 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 DNA libraries with a starting template of 50 ng, and all reagents in the kit have been subjected to strict quality control and functional validation to maximize the stability and reproducibility of library construction.

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).Schematic diagram of DNA banking processprocedureDNA fragmentation, junction reaction1.
