Introduction

Free-circulating nucleic acids, such as tumor-specific extracellular DNA fragments and mRNAs in the blood or fetal nucleic acids in maternal blood, are present in serum or plasma usually as short fragments, <1000bp (DNA). HiPure Circulating DNA Midi Kit enables efficient purification of these circulating nucleic acids from human plasma, serum, or urine. The extracted products can be used for clinical in vitro detection.

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.

Advantages

• High yield – most optimal process, free DNA (>50bp) can be obtained to the maximum extent
• High concentration – low elution volume, ensuring high nucleic acid concentration
• High purity – low alcohol binding method, completely removing inhibitor and protein pollution
• High recovery – DNA can be recovered at thelevel of PG by silica gel column purification

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K, Carrier RNA 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 dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. The entire kit can be stored at 2-8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.

Sal-Like Protein 4 (SALL4), is a zinc finger transcription factor found in germ cells and human blood progenitor cells, with functional involvement in modulating Oct-4 to maintain embryonic stem cell pluripotency. SALL4 is a useful marker for acute myeloid leukemia, B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia, intratubular germ cell neoplasia, seminomas/dysgerminomas, and yolk sac tumors (both pediatric and postpubertal). Anti-SALL4 is used to detect embryonal carcinomas, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), gliomas, ovarian primitive germ-cell tumors, choriocarcinomas, spermatogonia, teratoma, gastric cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer. Expression of SALL4 is often associated with poor prognosis in HCC, and with metastasis in endometrial cancer, colorectal carcinoma, and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Overview

• Reliable and cost-effective
• Non-invasive, user-friendly, convenient sample collection & preservation in a single tube system
• Preserved exosomes are stable for 2 years at ambient temperature
• Shipping accessories can be purchased separately
• Compatible with Norgen’s Saliva Exosome Purification Kit (Cat. 65300)
• RNA can be isolated from the purified exosomes using Norgen’s Exosome RNA Purification kit (Cat. 58000)

Norgen’s Saliva Exosome Collection and Preservation Kit is an all-in-one solution designed for 1) simple and non-invasive saliva collection; 2) preservation of exosomes in saliva samples at ambient temperature; and 3) isolation of high quality intact exosomes and exosomal RNA within a laboratory setting. The Saliva Exosome Collection, Preservation and Isolation Kit contains 50 Individual Saliva Exosome Collection and Preservation Devices. Each of the 50 individual Saliva Exosome Collection and Preservation Devices consists of 3 components:

• Saliva Collection Funnel and Collection Tube that contains Norgen’s Preservative in a dried format
• Collection Tube Cap
• ID Label

Saliva samples are collected by spitting inside the Collection Funnel which has been assembled with the Collection Tube. After collecting the required volume of saliva the Collection Funnel is removed, the Collection Tube is securely capped with Collection Tube Cap. The collected saliva is mixed by gentle inversion for several times till the saliva colour changes into yellow. The Saliva Collection Tube is subsequently sent to the laboratory for the purification of intact exosomes and for the subsequent isolation and analysis of saliva exosomal RNA. The saliva exosomes in preserved samples are stable for 2 years at room temperature.
