Preserved Blood RNA Purification Kit II (for use with PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes)
Product Info
Document
Product Info
Overview
Compatible with PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes
Isolate true total RNA including siRNA and microRNA
No phenol extractions
Purify high-quality RNA in 30 minutes
Purified RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services
Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix
Norgen’s Preserved Blood RNA Purification Kit II provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA from blood that has been preserved using PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes*. The kit purifies all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA). The RNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components such as proteins, without the use of phenol or chloroform.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Norgen’s proprietary resin provides superior affinity to the full size range of RNA molecules, resulting in large and small RNA (miRNA) purification with better linearity and sensitivity. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time RT-PCR, RT-PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, expression profiling, miRNA cloning and amplification and Next Generation Sequencing.
* PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes are a product of PreAnalytiX GmbH. PAXgene Blood RNA Tubes are not provided.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 1 year after the date of shipment. The DNase I should be stored at -20°C.
NGS Cell Free DNA Library Prep Kit (illumina and MGI Platforms)
Product Info
Document
Product Info
The NGS Cell Free DNA Library Prep Kit (illumina and MGI Platforms) was developed for the construction of high quality cell-free DNA (cfDNA) libraries using 1 ng to 50 ng of cell-free DNA as input. The kit has a simple work flow and a fast procedure. Multiplexing of the cell free DNA library is possible based on the index type.
NGS Cell Free DNA Library Prep Kit Workflow
The main source of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is derived from apoptotic hematopoietic cells in blood and found in the plasma. The length of the cfDNA is about 150-200 bp in length. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) derived from malignant tumors is a part of cfDNA. Both cfDNA and ctDNA can be used as a noninvasive biomarker since it offers a better approach in comparison to invasive tissue biopsies.
NGS has been used for cfDNA and ctDNA sequencing in the field of liquid biopsy as it provides a whole genome level of molecular profiling. One of the hurdles for cfDNA sequencing is the difficulty of library preparation from the limited amount of cfDNA obtained from plasma. Our cell-free NGS kit makes it easy to get enough libraries from limited input in just 1.5 hours.
Three index types are available for the NGS Cell Free DNA Library Prep Kit of the illumina platform:
Non-index (Cat.# 30029): Libraries do not have index.
Index(Cat.# 30031): Each of our index primers contains a unique 6-base index sequence that can be used for sample identification. Total 48 library multiplexing is possible. Index information can be downloaded here.
Unique dual index (Cat.# 30033): Cell-free DNA library multiplexing up to 96 samples is possible with the unique dual indexes. We have developed a Four-Base Difference Index System. The system have at least 4 bases different from each other in the 8 bases index length. The primers effectively minimize sequencing errors such as mis-assignment, index hopping, index contamination etc. Index information can be downloaded here.
Indexes are available for the MGI platform kits (Cat.# 34031).
Kit advantages:
Fast and simple protocol
Hands-on time is around 10 minutes
The total protocol time is only 1.5 hours
Easy procedure based on:
Ready-to-use master mix for easy setup of reactions
Less reaction components to simplify bench work
Less magnetic beads used for cleanup procedures: This can reduce more than 50% of the beads consumption
Guaranteed high library conversion efficiency
Low input cell-free DNA: From 1 ng to 50 ng
Comparison of library conversion efficiency with different samples under the same condition.
Comparison of library yield with different samples under the same condition.

The Digestible and Resistant Starch Assay Kit (K-DSTRS) for the determination of digestible, resistant and total starch in starch samples, plant and other materials.
This method is based on the research of Englyst et al. (Ref) with some modifications. Digestion is performed using saturating levels of pancreatic α-amylase (PAA) and amyloglucosidase (AMG), but in stirred containers rather than shaken tubes, to simplify sample removal.
In line with Englyst definitions:
Rapidly digestible starch (RDS) is that starch which is digested within 20 min.
Slowly digestible starch (SDS) is that starch which is digested between 20 and 120 min.
A new term, ‘Total digestible starch (TDS)’ is introduced (and measured) to cover all starch that is digested within 4 h (the average time of residence of food in the human small intestine).
Resistant starch (RS) then, is that starch which is not digested within 4 h.
The incubation conditions parallel those used in AOAC Method 2017.16, a new, rapid integrated procedure for the measurement of total dietary fiber (Megazyme method K-RINTDF). This method is physiologically based and designed to fit the definition of DF announced by Codex Alimentarius in 2009.
