Fructan Assay Kit

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 urinary exosomes for functional studies.
• Bind and elute all RNA irrespective of size or GC content, without bias.
• Isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias.
• No phenol extractions, Proteinase K treatment, nor carrier RNA required.
• No time-consuming ultracentrifugation, filtration nor special syringes are required.
• No precipitation reagents nor overnight incubation required.
• Compatible with urine from any species.
• 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 Urine Exosome Purification and RNA Isolation Mini Kit constitutes an all-in-one system for the purification of exosomes and the subsequent isolation of RNA from different urine sample volumes ranging from 250 μL to 1 mL. 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 kit allows the user to elute into a flexible elution volume ranging from 50 μL to 100 μL. The purified RNA is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and of the highest integrity. The purified RNA can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, NGS application, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, and expression array assays.

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.

Description 

Champion™ E. coli Transformation Kit provides an easy method for rapid preparation of chemically competent cells with high transformation efficiency from fresh culture, overnight culture, or even directly from bacterial colonies on the plate. The competent cell preparation method eliminates the requirement of time-wasting wash step. In addition, preparation of competent cells from overnight culture or directly from bacterial colonies provides flexibility to cloning experiment. The resultant competent cells can be immediately used or stored at -70°C for one year. This kit includes a specialized SMO-Broth™ medium and a unique Champion™ CC Buffer for culturing and preparing competent cells efficiently. Following the simple and quick competent cell preparation protocol from fresh culture, the transformation efficiency is typically ranged from 10⁸–10⁹ cfu/μg transformants/μg of pUC19 plasmid DNA, but varies depending on the E. coli strains. The resultant competent cells can be further transformed using time-saving transformation protocol, eliminating the requirement of heat-shock and recovery steps. 

Features

• Flexible– fresh culture, overnight culture, 4°C stored liquid culture or even colonies on agar plate can be used for transformation. 
• Fast and Easy– only few steps for preparation; suitable for time-saving transformation 
• High efficiency– up to 109 cfu/μg 
• Personalization– suitable for most E. coli strains

The Opentrons 96-well Aluminum Block can be placed directly on the OT-2/Opentrons Flex deck or on the Opentrons Temperature Module. This block can hold full, half, and non skirted PCR plates as well as strip tubes at constant temperature. The aluminum block holds temperatures between 4°C and 95°C when used with the Opentrons Temperature Module (GEN2).
