Norovirus is a single-stranded, non-enveloped RNA virus belonging to the Caliciviridae family. Norovirus is considered the major causative agent of non-bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. The main channel of transmittance is via contaminated food or water, as well as human-to-human contact. Most Noroviruses infecting humans belong to genogroup I and II (particularly genotype 4). Norovirus is very stable in the environment and is resistant to some surface disinfectants such as alcohols and detergents. Moreover, it is very difficult to culture Norovirus in vitro, making its identification by standard microbiological assays challenging.

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 rapid extraction of DNA from FFPE sample. This kit uses two combination methods. High-salt Bind is conducive to remove pigments or polysaccharides from complex FFPE samples, so as to improve the purity of nucleic acid and avoid blocking aligent 2100. Alcohol mediated adsorption is conducive to improve the nucleic acid yield of high-yield samples.

Specifications

Features	Specifications
Main Functions	Isolation high pure total DNA from FFPE using high bind beads
Applications	PCR and viral DNA detection, etc.
Purification technology	Magnetic beads technology
Process method	Manual or automatic
Sample type	Paraffin embedded tissue samples
Sample amount	1-6 slices of 10-20μm
Elution volume	≥30μl
Time per run	≤60 minutes

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

• High yield – most optimal process, recovery up to 90%
• Economy – less than 50% of the price of Qiagen and other imported products
• High purity – OD 260/280 : 1.7-1.9, OD 260/230 : 1.5-2.0

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K, RNase A and MagPure Particles N 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.

Introduction

This product allows rapid and reliable isolation of high-quality genomic DNA from various soil, stool, and other environmental samples. Up to 500mg soil, 100mg stool, or 0.5g environmental samples can be processed in 60 minute. Purified DNA is suitable for PCR, restriction digestion, and next-generation sequencing.

Features	Specifications
Main Functions	Isolation total DNA from 250-500mg soil sample
Applications	PCR, southern blot and enzyme digestion, etc.
Purification technology	Magnetic beads technology
Process method	Manual or automatic
Sample type	Soil
Sample amount	250-500mg
Elution volume	≥50μl
Time per run	≤70 minutes

Principle

This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. Soil sample is homogenized and then treated in a specially formulated buffer containing detergent to lyse bacteria, yeast, and fungal samples. Humic acid, proteins, polysaccharides, and other contaminants are removed using our propietary Absorber Solution. 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 buffer to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by Elution Buffer.

Advantages

• High concentration – maximum extraction of total DNA from soil samples
• High purity – purified DNA can be directly used in various downstream applications
