| Description | Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that preferentially bind phosphatidylserine (PS). Under normal physiologic conditions, PS is predominantly located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Upon initiation of apoptosis, PS loses its asymmetric Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that preferentially bind phosphatidylserine (PS). Under normal physiologic conditions, PS is predominantly located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Upon initiation of apoptosis, PS loses its asymmetric distribution across the phospholipid bilayer and is translocated to the extracellular membrane leaflet marking cells as targets of phagocytosis. Once on the outer surface of the membrane, PS can be detected by fluorescently labeled Annexin V in a calcium-dependent manner. In early-stage apoptosis, the plasma membrane excludes viability dyes such as propidium iodide (PI), 7-AAD. These cells will stain with Annexin V but not a viability dye, thus distinguishing cells in early apoptosis. However, in late stage apoptosis, the cell membrane loses integrity thereby allowing Annexin V to also access PS in the interior of the cell. A viability dye can be used to resolve these late-stage apoptotic and necrotic cells (Annexin V, viability dye-positive) from the early-stage apoptotic cells (Annexin V positive, viability dye-negative). This kit is suitable for the identification and enumeration of dead cells, such as apoptotic or necrotic cells, by flow cytometry.

AChE is located at the synaptic cleft and functions to terminate synaptic transmission by catalyzing the breakdown of ACh allowing cholinergic neurons to return to a resting state after activation. It is also found in membranes of red blood cells, motor and sensory fibers, muscles, nerves and central and peripheral tissues. Changes in AChE activity may result from exposure to certain insecticides, which act as cholinesterase inhibitors. Inhibitors of AChE are also used to treat certain conditions such as dementia.Acetylcholinesterase activity assay kit has been used to determine the activity of acetylcholinesterase in a rat organophosphate model and in brain tissue homogenates.Principle：Acetylcholinesterase can catalyze the hydrolysis of acetylcholine to choline, and the reaction of choline with disulfide p-nitrobenzoic acid to produce 5-merhydryl-nitrobenzoic acid (TNB). The product has a characteristic absorption peak at 412 nm, and the activity of acetylcholinesterase can be characterized by the change of light absorption valueThe Dilution Calculator EquationConcentration (start)xVolume (start)= Concentration (final)× Volume (final)This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2...

During the operation process, RNase contamination should be avoided to prevent RNA degradation or cross contamination during experiments. It is recommended to perform RNA operations in specialized areas, use specialized instruments and consumables, and have operators wear masks and disposable gloves, and frequently change gloves.2. Disposable plastic containers should be used as much as possible for experiments. If glass containers are used, they should be treated with a 0.1% DEPC (diethyl pyrocarbonate) aqueous solution at 37 ℃ for 12 hours, and sterilized under high pressure at 120 ℃ for 30 minutes before use. Alternatively, glass containers should be sterilized under dry heat at 180 ℃ for 60 minutes before use. The sterile water used in the experiment should be treated with 0.1% DEPC and then subjected to high-pressure sterilization.3. All reagents in this reagent kit should be gently mixed upside down before use, avoiding foaming as much as possible, and used after brief centrifugation. The enzymes involved should be returned to -20 ℃ as soon as possible after use to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.4. This reagent kit must use specific primers, and the selection of primers can be based on specific experiments. The quality of primer design directly affects the results of RT-PCR reactions. When designing primers, factors such as GC content, primer length, primer position, and the secondary structure of PCR products need to be considered. It is recommended to use professional primer design software.Usage:1. Dissolve the RNA template, primers, OneStep RT-PCR Buffer, SuperRT OneStep RT-PCR EnzymeMix, and RNase Free Water and place them on ice for later use.2. Prepare the reaction system according to the following table: Reagent 25 µlReaction system Final concentration 2×SuperRT OneStep Buffer 12.5 µl 1× Forward Primer，10 µM 1 µl 0.4 µM Reverse Primer，10 µM 1 µl 0.4 µM SuperRT OneStep EnzymeMix 0.5 µl / RNA Template X µl 1 pg – 1 µg RNase-Free Water up to 25 µl / Attention: The primer concentration should be between 0.1 and 1.0 as the final concentration µ M serves as a reference for setting the range. In the case of low amplification efficiency, the concentration of primers can be increased; When non-specific reactions occur, the primer concentration can be reduced to optimize the reaction system.3. Vortex and shake well, centrifuge briefly, and collect the solution to the bottom of the tube.4. Preheat the thermal cycler to 45 ℃, place the PCR tube in the thermal cycler, and perform RT-PCR reaction.Reaction conditions: Step Temperature Time / Reverse transcription 45℃ 30 min / PCR pre denaturation 95℃ 2 min Denaturation 94℃ 30 s 30-40 cycles Anneal 55-65℃ 30 s 30-40 cycles Extend 72℃ 30 s 30-40 cycles Finally extended 72℃ 5 min /Attention:1) In general PCR experiments, the annealing temperature is 5 ℃ lower than the melting temperature Tm of the amplification primer, and the annealing time is generally 20-30 seconds. If the ideal amplification efficiency cannot be achieved, the annealing temperature should be appropriately reduced; When non-specific reactions occur, increase the annealing temperature to optimize the reaction conditions.2) The extension time is set based on the size of the amplified fragments, and the DNA Polymerase amplification efficiency contained in this product is 1 kb/30s.3) The number of cycles can be set based on the downstream application of the amplification product. Too few cycles, insufficient amplification; Multiple cycles increase the probability of mismatches and result in severe non-specific backgrounds. Therefore, while ensuring product yield, the number of cycles should be minimized as much as possible.5. After the reaction is complete, take 5 µ l of the reaction product, add an appropriate amount of loading buffer, and perform electrophoresis detection results...

In addition to yeast cells, it can also be used in E. coli. Plasmid DNA extracted with this kit can be used in various molecular biology experiments, such as ligation, transformation, sequencing and library screening.Self-contained reagents: β-mercaptoethanol, anhydrous ethanol.Pre-experiment Preparation and Important Notes1. All components can be stably stored in dry, room temperature (15-30℃) environment for 1 year, the adsorption column can be stored at 2-8℃ for a longer period of time, and Buffer P1 with RNase A can be stably stored at 2-8℃ for 6 months.2. Before the first use, add all the RNase A solution to Buffer P1, mix well, and store at 2-8℃.3. Anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer PW before first use according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.4. Before use, please check whether Buffer P2 and Buffer N3 are crystallized or precipitated. If there is any crystallization or precipitation phenomenon, it can be clarified by taking a water bath at 37℃ for a few minutes to restore the clarity.5. Be careful not to touch Buffer P2 and Buffer N3 directly, and tighten the lid immediately after use.6. The amount of plasmid extracted is related to the yeast strain, plasmid copy number, culture conditions, etc. Usually, yeast plasmid copy number is very low, which is difficult to be detected by electrophoresis or spectrophotometer method.Procedure1. Take 1-5 ml of yeast culture (maximum 5×107 yeast cells, generally for Saccharomyces cerevisiae OD = 1.0, equivalent to 1-2×107 cells/ml) and add it to a centrifuge tube (self-provided), centrifuge for 30 seconds at 12,000 rpm (~13,400×g), collect the bacterial precipitate, and aspirate as much as possible to discard the supernatant.2. Add 250µl Buffer P1 to the bacterium (please check if RNase A has been added first) and resuspend the precipitate.3. Add 40mg of Glass Beads to the above mixture and vortex and shake for 10 minutes.4. Add 250 µl of Buffer P2 to the centrifuge tube, mix gently by turning up and down 6-8 times, and let stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes, at which time the bacterial solution should become clear and viscous.Note: Mix gently, do not shake violently, so as not to interrupt the genomic DNA, resulting in genomic DNA fragments 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.5. Add 350 µl of Buffer N3 to the centrifuge tube and immediately mix gently up and down 6-8 times, at which point a white flocculent precipitate appears, and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 20 minutes.Note: Buffer N3 should be mixed immediately after addition to avoid localized precipitation.6. Column Equilibration: Add 200 µl of Buffer PS to the Spin Columns DM in the collection tube, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid from the collection tube, and place the column back into the collection tube.7. Add the supernatant from step 5 to the adsorbent column that has been loaded into the collection tube, taking care not to aspirate the precipitate.Note: The maximum volume of the adsorption column is 750 µl, and the solution is passed through the column in 2 times.8. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.9. Add 150 µl Buffer PB to the adsorbent column, centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 min, pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube, and put the adsorbent column back into the collection tube.10. Add 750 µl Buffer PW to the adsorption column (please check that anhydrous ethanol has been added first), centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute, and pour off the waste liquid in the collection tube.11. Place the column back into the recovery collection tube and centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes, pouring off the waste liquid. Leave the 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; ethanol residue can interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions (digestion, PCR, etc.).12. Place the adsorbent column in a new centrifuge tube, add 50-100 µl of Buffer EB to the center of the adsorbent membrane dropwise, let it stand at room temperature for a few minutes, centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute, and collect the plasmid solution into the centrifuge tube. Store the plasmid at -20°C.Attention:1) To increase the recovery efficiency of the plasmid, the resulting solution can be reintroduced into the adsorbent column, left at room temperature for a few minutes, centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute, and the plasmid solution collected into a centrifuge tube.2) When the plasmid copy number is low or >10 kb, Buffer EB is preheated at 65-70°C in a water bath, which can increase the extraction efficiency.3) Usually yeast plasmids have very low copy number and are difficult to detect by electrophoresis or spectrophotometry. If the extracted plasmid is to be used in the next step of the experiment, it is usually recommended to use 1-5µl of the plasmid as PCR template, and 5-10µl of the plasmid for transformation of E. coli.4) Commercial high transformation efficiency receptor cells should be used for transformation of E. coli...
