Overview

• Milk samples are stable for 1 month at room temperature (or 1 week at 37°C) in the Preservation Solution
• Fast and easy processing using a rapid spin-column format
• DNA can be isolated and detected from as little as 100 µL of milk
• Isolate high quality genomic DNA

Norgen’s Milk DNA Preservation and Isolation Kit is an all-in-one solution designed for 1) preservation of DNA in milk samples at ambient temperature; and 2) isolation of high quality DNA within a laboratory setting. The kit is provided with a Preservation Solution that allows for either immediate processing of milk samples, or allows for the storage of the milk samples for up to 1 month at room temperature prior to DNA isolation. Genomic DNA extracted from somatic cells and bacteria found in milk can be used in various applications. The isolated DNA can be used for the detection of biomarkers to diagnose a disease, follow the diseases progress or monitor the effects of a particular treatment. Milk DNA can also be used to diagnose particular types of infections. Milk DNA purified using Norgen’s kit is of the highest quality, and is compatible with a number of downstream applications including PCR, Southern Blot analysis, sequencing and microarray analysis.

Milk DNA Preservative

Norgen’s Milk DNA Preservation Solution is an aqueous storage buffer designed for rapid cellular lysis and subsequent preservation of DNA from fresh specimens. The preservative prevents the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and fungi, and also inactivates viruses allowing the resulting non-infectious samples to be handled and shipped safely. In addition, the preservative eliminates the need to immediately process or freeze samples and allows the samples to be shipped to centralized testing facilities at ambient temperature. The components of the preservative allow samples to be stored for 1 month without any detectable DNA degradation.

Kit Specifications
Maximum Milk Input	0.5 mL
Time to Complete 10 Purifications	80 minutes (20 minutes hands on)

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
The Proteinase K should be stored at -20°C upon arrival and after reconstitution. All other solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment.

Storage in Preservation Buffer
1) Storage at -20°C is recommended for archival samples and will provide optimal preservation. The preservation buffer will freeze at -20°C. Samples can be stored indefinitely at -70°C.
2) Samples can be stored at room temperature (25°C) for up to 1 month without significant loss of DNA quality.
3) DNA has also been successfully isolated from samples stored at 37°C 1 for one week.

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. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA/RNA 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/RNA was eluted by Buffer NFW.

Storage and Stability

MagBind Particles and Proteinase K Solution should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 8 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 18 months under these conditions.

Introduction

Blood samples contain rich DNA, including mitochondrial DNA, genomic DNA, circulating DNA (mostly released into blood after tumor cell apoptosis) in white blood cells, as well as parasitic viral or microbial DNA. These DNA are important parameters in clinical testing or diagnosis, which are also valuable materials for medical research. There are three main issues with extracting DNA from blood samples:

1. The sample is highly infectious, posing great harm to operators and the environment.

2. The source of DNA is complex and aportion of the nucleic acid, such as viral DNA or free DNA, may be lost during the operation, leading to downstream detection failure;

3. Blood sample contains a large amount of impurities and inhibitory factors.

Currently there are many methods available for extracting DNA from whole blood samples, such as phenol chloroform extraction, salting out method, etc. However, these methods require pre-treatment of blood sample, which removes red blood cells and isolate white blood cells in the first step. Due to the requirement that it cannot inactivate or kill pathogens during the process of removing red blood cells, the waste liquid (red blood cell lysate) and consumables may be contaminated by pathogens and become infectious, posing a danger to the entire laboratory environment and operators. In addition, during the process of removing red blood cells, useful nucleic acid information such as viruses, microorganisms, or circulating DNA is also lost, leading to experiment or detection failures.

The HiPure Blood DNA Kits series provided by Magen Company uses silica gel column purification technology, which can directly lyse whole blood samples without the need for white blood cell separation. Whole blood samples are directly mixed with lysates and proteases, resulting in the inactivation of pathogens, greatly reducing the infectivity, environmental pollution, and the chance of operators being infected. Due to the direct lysis and digestion of samples, except lymphocyte DNA, other circulating DNA as well as DNA from viruses and microorganisms, can also be recovered.

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.

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
