• Isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias
• Versatile plasma/serum input volume
• No phenol extractions, Proteinase K treatment, nor carrier RNA required
• No time-consuming ultracentrifugation, filtration nor special syringes required
• No precipitation reagents, nor overnight incubation required
• Compatible with plasma/serum from most species
• Pure exosomes are purified and are free from any other RNA-binding proteins
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin
• The purified RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services

Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and RNA Isolation Kits constitute all-in-one systems for the purification of exosomes and the sequential isolation of exosomal RNA from different plasma/serum sample volumes. The purification is based on spin column chromatography that employs Norgen’s proprietary resin. These kits are designed to isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias. These kits provide a clear advantage over other available kits in that they do not require any special instrumentation, protein precipitation reagents, extension tubes, phenol/chloroform or protease treatments. The RNA isolated from the purified exosomes is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and is of the highest integrity. The purified RNA can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, and expression array assays.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. It is recommended to warm Lysis Buffer A for 20 minutes at 60°C if any salt precipitation is observed.

Important Note
This kit is suitable for the purification of exosomes from fresh or frozen serum or plasma prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate. Plasma samples prepared from blood collected on heparin should not be used as heparin can significantly interfere with many downstream applications such as RT-PCR.

N-(endo-BCN-PEG2-amido-PEG3)-N-bis-(PEG3-Amino-Tri-(Propargyl-PEG2-ethoxymethyl)-methane) is is a multi-functional PEG linker with six terminal propargyl groups and a BCN group. The propargyl groups enables formation of triazole linkage with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules in copper catalyzed Click Chemistry. The BCN group can react with azide -tagged compound or biomolecules. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

Overview

• Rapid and simple procedure to generate digested peptides
• Simultaneous digestion, purification and concentration at once
• Peptide generation is complete, with no generation of additional artifacts being detected in mass spectrometry
• Peptides are ready for applications such as mass spectrometry and SDS-PAGE
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s resin separation matrix

This kit is highly efficient in the enzymatic digestion of simple and complex protein samples using trypsin and the subsequent purification of the resulting peptides using a convenient spin column format.  Trypsin is added to the protein sample and bound to the column.  Salts are washed away and the trypsin is then activated to digest proteins.  Peptides are then eluted in a small volume and ready for downstream analysis. The peptides generated are complete, with no additional artifacts being detected in mass spectrometry.  Fifteen micrograms of protein can be processed, digested and purified with each spin column with about 20 minutes of hands-on time (plus trypsin incubation).   The simultaneous protein digestion and volumetric concentration of the purified peptides makes the kit a convenient method for preparing peptides to be analyzed by many downstream applications such as mass spectrometry and more.
