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.

Introduction

This product provides fast and easy methods for purification of total DNA for reliable PCR and Southern blotting. Total DNA (e.g., genomic, viral, mitochondrial) can be purified from tissue, whole blood, plasma, serum, buffy coat, bone marrow, other body fluids, lymphocytes, cultured cells.

Specifications

Principle

This product is based on silica column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mm Tris, pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).

Advantages

• High quality DNA – meet a variety of downstream applications, including PCR, qPCR, enzyme digestion, hybridization, etc.
• High throughput – 96 samples can be processed simultaneously

Kit Contents

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.

Purchase Guide

*Note：Leukocyte protocol can be used when large volume whole blood samples need to be processed. Whole blood was treated with red blood cell lysate, and white blood cells were obtained by centrifugation before extraction

Description 

The ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase is designed for amplifying targeted DNA directly from whole blood, eliminating the need for a lengthy DNA isolation process. ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase is highly tolerant in the presence of PCR interfering/ inhibiting substances in blood, such as IgG, hemoglobin, and lactoferrin. ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase is compatible with most anticoagulants, such as citrate, EDTA, and heparin (Fig. 1). The ExcelTaq™ Blood Direct DNA Polymerase includes a pair of Positive Control Primers (CCR5) that are compatible with primate blood samples.

Features

• 5’→3′ DNA polymerase activity
• No detectable 3’→5′ exonuclease (proofreading) activity
• Generates PCR products with 3′-dA overhangs
• Compatible with most anticoagulants 

Applications 

• Direct amplification of DNA from blood samples
• High throughput screening without DNA purification
• Suitable for multiplex PCR

Storage

-20°C for 24 months
