Introduction

Magnetic bead nucleic acid purification technology uses nano or micron superparamagnetic material as the matrix, generally black ferric oxide or yellowish brown ferricoxide as the magnetic material. The surface of bead is coated with appropriate functional groups, which can adsorb nucleic acid. Magnetic beads commonly used for nucleic acids, containing carboxyl groups, hydroxyl groups, or silicon groups. Silicon-based magnetic beads are the most common, and its principle of adsorbing nucleic acid is consistent with the classical glass milk purification technology or glass fiber filter membrane purification method. Magpure particle is a kind of polydisperse fast speed silica magnetic beads. The core is ferricoxide, accounting for 50%, and the surface coating is silica, accounting for 50%. The product can be used for plasmid extraction, gel DNA recovery, product purification, genomic DNA and RNA extraction, and viral nucleic acid extraction.

Principle

Highsalt mediated binding: in the solution containing 2-4M guanidine isothiocyanate, Magpure particles can selectively recover DNA molecules, and impurities such as protein polysaccharides are not adsorbed.

Alcohol mediated binding: in the solution containing guanidine salt and alcohol (>25%), Magpure particles can selectively recover DNA/RNA molecules, and proteins and other impurities are not adsorbed.

After biological samples are treated with digestive solution or lysis Buffer, DNA/RNA is released from cells, organelles and protein complexes (ribosomes and nucleosomes) into reagents. After Magpure particles and binding solution are added, DNA/RNA is adsorbed to the surface of Magpure particles to form DNA/RNA bead complex. Under the action of the magnetic field, the magnetic beads are separated and collected, and the impurities such as protein are removed with the waste liquid. After two or three steps of further cleaning, the DNA/RNA magnetic bead complex is resuspended in sterilized water or TE buffer, and the DNA/RNA falls off from the surface of the magnetic beads, so as to achieve the purpose of purification.

• The MagPure magnetic-particle technology combines the speed and efficiency of silica-based DNA purification with the convenient handling of magnetic particles. DNA binds to the silica surface of the magnetic particles in the presence of a chaotropic salt. DNA bound to the particles is then efficiently washed, considerably improving the purity of DNA. High-quality DNA is eluted. The automated purification procedure completely removes enzymes, nucleotides, and other contaminants and inhibitors. Purified DNA is suitable for direct use in downstream applications, such as sequencing and microarray analysis.

These kits provide a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total leukocyte (white blood cell) RNA from mammalian blood samples. These kits are supplied with an RBC (red blood cell) Lysis Buffer for selective removal of red blood cells and fractionation of leukocytes by centrifugation. Isolation of leukocyte RNA results in improved expression profiling and other downstream applications by removing the masking effects of some RNAs which are very abundant in whole blood, such as globin mRNAs. These kits are able to isolate total leukocyte RNA, including both large mRNA and all small RNA species containing microRNA (miRNA) and small silencing RNA (siRNA). The purified RNA is of the highest quality and can be used in a number of downstream applications.

Magnetic Beads (tRNA Purification)

Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization magnetic beads has been used for nucleic acids purification because they are effective, simple, and fast. The carboxyl groups coated beads are paramagnetic particles that reversibly bind to nucleic acid. However, there is a drawback for magnetic beads that it can only purify DNA/RNA that are 100 base pairs or longer. tRNA and other DNA/RNA fragments shorter than 100 base pairs are not effectively recovered. We have developed Magnetic Beads (tRNA Purification) to overcome the hurdle.

The Magnetic Beads (tRNA Purification) solves the tRNA and short DNA/RNA purification problem. The beads with our proprietary technology purify tRNA effectively by removing impurities and unwanted components such as dNTPs, detergents, salts, proteins, and other contaminants. The magnetic bead reagents can be used for oligo (>70 nt) applications.

Workflow without large RNA/DNA contamination

In the case of samples contaminated with RNA/DNA such as rRNA and DNA, our magnetic beads can effectively remove RNA/DNA that are 180 nt and larger. Purified tRNA are ideal for applications requiring high quality, as the fragments are free of impurities and contaminants.

Workflow with large RNA/DNA contamination

Comparison of tRNA and 70 nt oligos recovery. BioDynami beads (tRNA purification) successfully recovered DNA fragments both yeast tRNA and 70 nt oligos.

Recovery of tRNA and 70 nt oligos with BioDynami magnetic Beads (tRNA Purification). Yeast tRNA and 70 nt oligos were used as input. Input and recovered oligos were quantified with ssDNA Quantification kit (BioDynami Cat. # 40043) and RNA Quantification kit (BioDynami Cat. # 40044).
