The PCR Decontamination Kit can remove contaminating DNA in PCR master mixes, without reduction of PCR sensitivity.
Detail
OverView
The PCR Decontamination Kit can remove contaminating DNA in PCR master mixes, without reduction of PCR sensitivity.
The double-strand specific property of the dsDNase allows decontamination with primers and probe present.
Efficient for end-point PCR, probe-based qPCR, and some SYBR based qPCR mixes.
Contaminating bacterial DNA can be reduced to levels below the detection limit.
Fast and easy protocol.
Flat NTCs (No Template Controls).
Decontamination of master mixes without reduction of sensitivity has always been a challenge. Especially when minor amounts of DNA are targeted, contaminating DNA is a major problem. Any loss of sensitivity in the qPCR assay caused by the decontamination protocol is unacceptable.
In Figure 1, it is demonstrated that the PCR decontamination kit can remove contaminating DNA from a qPCR mix to non-detectable levels (flat NTC), without affecting the sensitivity of the qPCR.

Overview
Ensure optimal results for sensitive applications like NGS
Up to a tenfold increase in microRNA mapping during sequencing runs to reduce costs
Purification and enrichment of intact cell culture media exosomes for functional studies
No phenol extractions, Proteinase K treatment, nor carrier RNA required
No time-consuming ultracentrifugation, filtration nor special syringes required
No precipitation reagents nor overnight incubation required
Pure exosomes are purified and are free-from any other RNA-binding proteins
Purification is based on EXTRAClean spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix
Norgen’s EXTRAClean Cell Culture Media Exosome Purification and RNA Isolation Kits constitute all-in-one systems for the purification of exosomes and the subsequent isolation of RNA from different cell culture media sample volumes. The purification is based on spin column chromatography that employs Norgen’s proprietary resin. The EXTRAClean columns undergo stringent processing and rigorous quality control measures to minimize contamination traces, ensuring optimal results for sensitive applications such as NGS. The kit is designed to isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA. The kit provides a clear advantage over other available kits in that it does not require any special instrumentation, protein precipitation reagents, extension tubes, phenol/chloroform or protease treatments. Moreover, the kits allows the user to elute into flexible elution volumes ranging from 50 μL to 100 μL. The purified RNA is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and is of the highest integrity. The purified RNA can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, Sequencing based applications, reverse transcription PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, and expression array assays.
All sizes, including miRNA and small RNA (< 200 nt)
Elution Volume
50-100 μL
Time to Complete 10 Purifications
40-45 minutes
Average Yields
Variable depending on specimen
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All buffers should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. It is recommended to warm Lysis Buffer A for 20 minutes at 60°C if any salt precipitation is observed.
200 µL filtered pipette tips for the Opentrons Flex, provided sterile in racks or blister packs (refills). Tips are clear, non-conducting polypropylene tips, free of human DNA, PCR inhibitors, RNase/DNase, pyrogens, and endotoxins. Opentrons Flex Tips and Racks are autoclavable.
