| Description | The Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Kit (Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Kit) is a test kit that uses the classic propidium iodide (PI) staining method to analyze the cell cycle and apoptosis. Propidium iodide is a fluorescent dye for double-stranded DNA. When propidium iodide binds to double-stranded DNA, The Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Kit (Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Kit) is a test kit that uses the classic propidium iodide (PI) staining method to analyze the cell cycle and apoptosis. Propidium iodide is a fluorescent dye for double-stranded DNA. When propidium iodide binds to double-stranded DNA, it can produce fluorescence, and the fluorescence intensity is proportional to the content of double-stranded DNA. After the DNA in the cells is stained with propidium iodide, the DNA content of the cells can be measured using a flow cytometer, and then based on the distribution of DNA content, the cell cycle and apoptosis can be analyzed. After staining with propidium iodide, if the fluorescence intensity of G0/G1 phase cells is 1, then the theoretical fluorescence intensity of G2/M phase cells containing double genomic DNA is 2, and the fluorescence intensity of S phase cells undergoing DNA replication is between 1 and 2. Apoptotic cells, due to the condensation of the cell nucleus and the fragmentation of DNA (DNA fragmentation), cause some genomic DNA fragments to be lost during staining, so the iodine staining of apoptotic cells presents a significantly weak color, that is, the fluorescence intensity is less than 1, and a so-called sub-G1 peak appears on the fluorescence graph of flow cytometry, which is the peak of apoptotic cells. When cells undergo apoptosis, due to the concentration of cytoplasm and chromatin, apoptotic bodies are produced, causing changes in the light scattering properties of the cells. In the early stage of cell apoptosis, the ability of the cell to forward-angle light scattering significantly decreases, while the ability of lateral light scattering increases or remains unchanged. In the late stage of cell apoptosis, the signals of forward and lateral light scattering both decrease, so the changes in cell light scattering can be measured using a flow cytometer to observe the apoptosis situation. This kit is usually applied to the detection of the cell cycle and apoptosis of cultured adherent or suspended cells. If used for the cell cycle and apoptosis detection of cells from tissues, the tissue must be digested into a single-cell state before detection can be performed.

Fluorescent dyes all have the problem of quenching. Please try to avoid light during storage and use to slow down fluorescence quenching. 2. Iodophor is irritating to the human body. Please take appropriate protective measures. 3. Iodophor is a known mutagen, so this solution needs to be treated with activated carbon before being discarded. 4. When fixing cells with 70% ethanol, make sure it is thorough; otherwise, uneven staining will result in unclear or inaccurate results. It is recommended to fix the cells overnight at -4℃ with 70% ethanol. 5. After cell fixation, ensure that the cells are in a single-cell suspension; cell adhesion may affect our results. 6.

Do not leave the prepared Proteinase K at room temperature for a long time, and avoid repeated freezing and thawing to avoid affecting its activity.2. Repeated freezing and thawing of the samples should be avoided, as this will result in smaller DNA fragments and a decrease in the amount of extracted DNA.3.

Fetch:Plant material: take about 10 mg of sample in a centrifuge tube (provided); Animal material: take about 10 mg of sample in a centrifuge tube (provided);Bacteria: Take 200-800 µL of bacteria in good growth condition in a centrifuge tube (self-provided) and collect the bacteria.2. Add 200 µL of Buffer SA and vortex to mix.Note: In the case of plant leaves and animal tissues, they should be ground with a pestle and mortar as much as possible: in the case of plant seeds, they should be crushed and finely ground beforehand; bacterial and 1-3 mm rat-tail samples can be directly vortex lysed.3. Add 10µL of Proteinase K, mix well, incubate at 56℃ for 10 minutes, and treat at 95℃ for 5 minutes.Note: 1) In the case of animal tissue samples, the incubation time at 56°C may be extended to 30 minutes as appropriate; if there is any incompletely digested tissue, it should be removed as thoroughly as possible after centrifugation in the next step.2) Be careful not to exceed 5 minutes when treating at 95°C.4. 13,000 rpm (~17,900 x g), centrifugation for 5 minutes.5. Transfer the supernatant to a new centrifuge tube (self-prepared) and use it directly for PCR amplification, or store the solution at 4℃ or -20℃.6. PCR amplification:1) PCR reaction system:The following examples are conventional PCR reaction systems and reaction conditions, which should be improved and optimized according to the template, primer structure and target fragment size in actual operation.reagents20 µL systemfinal concentration2×PCR MasterMix10 µL1×Forward Primer, 10 µM1 µL0.4 µMReverse Primer, 10 µM1 µL0.4 µMTemplate DNA1-2 µL RNase-free Waterup to 20 µLNote: Please use the final concentration of 0.2-0.6µM as a reference for setting the range of primer concentration. If the amplification efficiency is not high, the concentration of primer can be increased; if a non-specific reaction occurs, the concentration of primer can be decreased, thus optimizing the reaction system.2)PCR reaction conditions:movetemptimingpremutability94°C2mindenaturation94°C30sannealing (metallurgy)55-65°C30s30-40 cyclesreach72°C60sultimate extension72°C5minNote: 1) In general, the annealing temperature is 5℃ lower than the melting temperature of the amplification primer Tm, and the annealing time is generally 30-60 seconds. When the desired amplification efficiency cannot be obtained, the annealing temperature should be lowered appropriately; when a non-specific reaction occurs, the annealing temperature should be raised, thus optimizing the reaction conditions.(2) The extension time is set according to the size of the fragment to be amplified, and the amplification efficiency of Taq DNA Polymerase included in this product is 1kb/30s. 3) The number of cycles can be set according to the downstream application of the amplification product. If the number of cycles is too low, the amplification is insufficient; if the number of cycles is high, the chance of mismatch will increase and the non-specific background will be serious. Therefore, the number of cycles should be minimized under the premise of ensuring the product yield.(3) Result detection: 5 µL of reaction product was taken at the end of the reaction and directly detected by agarose gel electrophoresis...
