Introduction

This product is suitable for rapid extraction of DNA from FFPE sample, tissue, cells, blood, swabs, blood spots, semen and other clinical samples. This product uses size selection magnetic beads, which can selectively remove small sizes of DNA (100-300bp) from FFPE samples by adjusting the amount of binding solution, so as to improve the effective data volume of downstream NGS.

Principle

This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and Protease. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by Elution Buffer.

Advantages

1.Use non-toxic dewaxing solution without contact with xylene

2.Efficient removal of formaldehyde modification on DNA and improvement of PCR sensitivity

3. One of the best FFPE DNA extraction kits on the market, the same effect of paraffin slice extraction as top brand, and the effect of puncture sample extraction is even better than top brands

Storage and Stability

RNase A, Proteinase K and MagBind Particles 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.

Description

Not all cyanobacterial strains produce toxins. However, the toxin-producing strains cannot be distinguished from the nontoxin-producing strains by traditional light microscopy, commonly
used to monitor water bodies.  An alternative for the differentiation of potentially toxic strains from nontoxic strains is to use molecular methods to detect the presence of toxin biosynthetic genes. Such methods are already available and could be used for the detection and identification of potential microcystin and nodularin producers present in environmental samples (Attogene catalog number NA2024).

Screening for the toxin itself, can be very costly.  In turn, real time PCR for the detection of the anaC gene in cyanobacterial strains and environmental samples can be a key indicator for the prescense of cyanobacteria capable of expressing the Anatoxin toxin.  Attogen has thus, designed primer pairs and probes targeting a the conserved anaC gene region in order to enable the amplification and detection of several producer genera using real time PCR.  Screening for the toxin genes can save significant costs and act as a triage for samples needing to be analyzed for the toxin itself.

Description

The ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase is a mixture of an aptamer-based inhibitor and a recombinant thermo-stable Taq DNA polymerase designed for preventing or minimizing non-specific DNA amplification in PCR reaction. The inactivation of polymerase is achieved by a reversible binding of the aptamer to the polymerase at temperatures below 45°C. The aptamer inhibitor releases polymerase during normal PCR cycling. The aptamer-based inhibition omits the time-consuming initial activation step required by chemically modified or antibody-based hot start polymerases.

The high specificity and sensitivity of ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase allows sensitive detection from limited amount of DNA templates, such as 1 pg of cDNA or 1 fg of plasmid DNA. With a high DNA synthesis rate and high thermo-stability, the ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase allows reactions to be set up at room temperature and is suitable for common and specialized PCR applications

Features

• Aptamer-based hot start PCR
• Reversible enzyme inactivation
• Omits extra enzyme activation step
• Convenient for room temperature PCR set-up
• High yield and specificity of target amplicons
• Wide range of amplicon length (up to 10 kb)
• High sensitivity (as low as 1 fg of plasmid)

Applications 

• High specificity PCR
• Generation of PCR products for TA cloning
• Routine PCR, multiplex PCR, colony PCR, and RT-PCR

Storage

-20°C for 24 months
