Its core principle utilizes the differences in cell membrane permeability and the specific fluorescent reactions upon binding to nucleic acids of the two dyes, Acridine Orange (AO) and Propidium Iodide (PI). AO can penetrate the cell membranes of all cell types (live, apoptotic, and necrotic). After entering the cell, AO binds to nucleic acids, but its fluorescence color depends on the target: when it binds to double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the nucleus, it emits green fluorescence (Ex 488 nm, Em 530 nm); whereas when it binds to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) or RNA, it emits red fluorescence (Em >640 nm). In contrast, PI cannot penetrate cells with intact cell membranes. It only enters late apoptotic and necrotic cells, whose cell membranes have been compromised, and binds to DNA to produce red fluorescence (Ex 535 nm, Em 617 nm). Therefore, after AO/PI double staining, observation under a fluorescence microscope allows clear differentiation of cells in different states: live cells display normal green fluorescence; early apoptotic cells show bright green speckled nuclear morphology (only AO enters); late apoptotic and necrotic cells appear orange-red or strong red fluorescence due to the combined effect of AO and PI.Product InformationA1492198Components100T500TStorageQuantity Per TestA1492198AAO Staining Solution100µL500µL2-8℃, Store in the dark.1µL per 0.5-1.0 x 10⁶ cellsA1492198BPI Staining Solution500µL2500µL-20℃.

Some organizations may form sol-gel products after adding Bu ff er GL and anhydrous ethanol, and it is recommended to perform severe shaking or vortex treatment at this time.5. Add all the solutions obtained in the previous step to the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube. If the solution cannot be added at once, it can be transferred multiple times. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm (~13400 × g) for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.6. Add 500 to the adsorption column µ L Buffer GW1 (check if anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.7.

Place the adsorption column in a new centrifuge tube (provided by oneself) and add 50-200 to the middle of the adsorption column in the air µ L Buffer GE or sterilized water, leave at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, collect DNA solution, and store DNA at -20 ℃.Attention:1) If downstream experiments are sensitive to pH or EDTA, they can be washed off with sterilized water. The pH value of the eluent has a significant impact on the elution efficiency. If water is used as the eluent, its pH value should be ensured to be between 7.0-8.5 (NaOH can be used to adjust the pH value of the water to this range). When the pH value is below 7.0, the elution efficiency is not high.2) Preheating the GE in a water bath at 65-70 ℃ and incubating it at room temperature for 5 minutes before centrifugation can increase yield; Use an additional 50-200 µ Re washing with GE or sterilized water can increase yield.3) If the final concentration of DNA needs to be increased, the obtained solution can be re added to the adsorption column, left at room temperature for 2-5 minutes, and centrifuged at 12000 rpm for 1 minute; If the elution volume is less than 200 µ L. It is possible to increase the final concentration of DNA, but it may reduce the total yield. If the amount of DNA is less than 1 µ g. Recommended 50 µ Wash with GE or sterilized water.4) Because DNA stored in water is affected by acidic hydrolysis, if long-term preservation is required, it is recommended to elute with Bu ff er GE and store at -20 ℃. i ii Genomic extraction of blood and cell samples1.

Incubate at 56 ℃ for 30 minutes.Attention:1) If necessary, incubation at 95 ° C for 15 minutes can inactivate the pathogen, but incubation at 95 ° C can cause some DNA degradation.2) To remove RNA, add 4 after completing the above steps µ L RNase A solution with a concentration of 100 mg/mL, shake well and let stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.2. Add 200 µ L anhydrous ethanol, vortex and shake thoroughly to mix well.Attention: Adding anhydrous ethanol may produce white precipitates, which will not affect subsequent experiments.3. Add all the solution obtained from step 2 (including the formed precipitate) to the adsorption column (Spin Columns DM) that has been loaded into the collection tube. If the solution cannot be added at once, it can be transferred multiple times. Centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.4.
