DBCO-Maleimide is a sulfhydryl reactive reagent containing a maleimide group and a DBCO moiety. Maleimide group specifically and efficiently reacts with thiols to form thioether bonds. The low mass weight will add minimal spacer to modified molecules and will enable simple and efficient incorporation of DBCO moiety into cysteine-containing peptides or other thiol-containing biomolecules. DBCO is commonly used for copper-free Click Chemistry reactions. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

Introduction

The Kit provides fast purification of high-quality RNA from whole blood, cells and tissues using silica-membrane spin columns with a binding capacity of 100μg RNA. There is no need for phenol / chloroform extractions and time-consuming steps such as CsCl gradient ultracentrifugation or isopropanol precipitation. The purified RNA can be used for applications such as RT-PCR, Northern blotting, poly A+ RNA (mRNA) purification, nuclease protection and in vitro translation.

Principle

The Kit simplifies isolation of RNA from blood with a fast spin-column procedure. Red blood cells are selectively lysed and white cells collected by centrifugation. White cells are then lysed using highly denaturing conditions which immediately inactivate RNases. After homogenization using the DNA spin column, the sample is applied to the RNA column. Total RNA binds to the membrane and contaminants are washed away, leaving pure RNA to be eluted in 30–100µl RNase-free water (provided with the kit) for direct use in any downstream application.

Advantages

• High quality – high purity total RNA can be directly used in various sensitive downstream applications
• Fast – isolation of several samples can be completed in 20 minutes by using column purification method
• Sensitive – RNA can be purified at the level of PG

Overview

• Able to quantify NGS Library (Illumina) of a wide spectrum of concentrations, including sub-nanomolar concentrations
• DNA is accurately quantified by using a standard curve constructed from the provided DNA Standards
• Specially designed DNA standards for Small RNA-Seq library; also compatible to NGS library of other molecular weights

Norgen’s NGS Library Quantification Kit (for Small RNA-Seq) offers a PCR-based detection procedure to quantify NGS libraries (specifically Small RNA-Seq) of a wide spectrum of concentrations.  The kit consists of a specially designed primer mix compatible with the Illumina system, that is used in conjunction with the provided 2X Real-Time PCR Master Mix to amplify a library of unknown concentration. The unknown library is accurately quantified by using a standard curve constructed from the provided DNA Standard (range from 20 pM to 2 fM) on a Real-Time PCR System. The kit is specially optimized to quantify Small RNA-Seq libraries with DNA standards that have similar size to a Small RNA-Seq library. However, it could also be used with other types of NGS libraries.
