Influenza is caused by three immunologic types of RNA viruses (A, B and C) within the Orthomyxoviridae family. Seasonal influenza is typically caused by three major subtypes of hemaglutinin (H1, H2 and H3) and two subtypes of neuraminidase (N1 and N2). A novel sub-type of influenza A virus called pandemic H1N1 2009 virus was identified in Mexico and reported by the CDC and WHO in April, 2009 (Novel swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus investigation team, 2009; CDC, 2009; and Fraser et al., 2009). H1N1 2009 is a novel sub-type virus that transmits easily between humans with 21 countries reporting cases within a month of initial identification (CDC, 2009-b). It is essential that public health laboratories around the world undertake detailed surveillance to monitor the spread and impact of pandemic H1N1 2009 virus as well as try to predict future changes in virulence (Fraser et al., 2009). Methods for the rapid diagnosis, case identification and tracking of this novel pathogen in the human population are therefore required to develop appropriate management strategies to mitigate morbidity and mortality.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 1 year after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.

All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.

Introduction

This product is suitable for extracting total RNA from 50-150mg conventional plantor fungal samples as well as samples rich in polyphenolic and polysaccharides. This kit is based on silica gel column purification technology, and the extraction process does not require the use of toxic phenol chloroform extraction. The entire extraction process only takes 20-30 minutes. This kit adopts DNA filtration technology, which can efficiently filter and remove DNA. The obtained RNA can be directly used for experiments such as RT-PCR, Northern Blot, poly A+ purification, nucleic acid protection, and in vitro translation.

Storage and Stability

Except TCEP, the kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. After receiving the product, it is recommended to store TCEP (dry powder) at -20-8°C. At low temperatures, Buffer PSL may form precipitates, dissolve it completely by 55°C water bath.

Purchase Guide

1. When dealing with woody or uncommon samples, R4150 is recommended first. R4150 contains two polysaccharide/polyphenol lysis buffer, which is the most universal product.

2. R4151 is recommended for handling common economic crop samples for the first time. Strong lysis solution can be used to process easy-extraction samples. The amount of corn or rice leaves samples can reach up to 300mg.

3. R4165 adopts CTAB/chloroform method, which can also handle a large number of difficult-to-extraction plants, but requires contact with chloroform substitutes, which is less safe than other kits. This kit uses DNase Ⅰ to remove DNA, which is also a good choice for extracting polysaccharide/polyphenol-rich plant samples.

4. R4014 is recommended for fruit/starch plant samples, which uses improved trizol pre-treatment, single column operation and is more economical.
