Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kits are designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from cultured cells as well as various tissue samples and urine. The purified genomic DNA is fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested, and is completely compatible with PCR and Southern Blot analysis.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Spin Column)
Purification is based on spin column chromatography as the separation matrix. Norgen’s columns bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. The protocol can be completed in approximately 30 minutes for cells and within 90 minutes for tissues. Each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Micro Kit (Micro)
Optimized for small inputs of cells and tissues, such as Laser-Captured Microdissection (LCM). Purification is based on spin column chromatography as the separation matrix. Norgen’s columns bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. Preparation time for a single sample is approximately 60 minutes, and each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System)
Purification is based on the use of magnetic beads that bind DNA under optimized binding conditions. Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System) allows for the isolation of genomic DNA from various types of animal tissues or cell samples. Preparation for 10 purifications is approximately 40 minutes of hands-on time.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput Magnetic Bead System)
Purification is based on the use of magnetic beads that bind DNA under optimized binding conditions. Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) allows for the isolation of genomic DNA from various types of animal tissues or cell samples. The Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) also can be integrated with a robotic automation system.

General information
Champion™ Competent Cells are chemically competent cells, which were prepared by SMOBIO to make E. coli perform excellent transformation efficiency. Standard transformation protocol is recommended for large plasmids or non-ampicillin selection. Time-saving transformation protocol is recommended for simple and rapid transformation. Champion™ Competent Cells are one of the fastest and simplest ready-to-use competent cell products in the world.
Kit contents
Shipping condition
Throughout the shipping process, the temperature is maintained under -70°C.
Storage and expiration
Champion™ Competent Cells must be stored between -70°C to -80°C. Subsequent freeze-thaw cycles will reduce transformation efficiency. If high efficiency is required for the experiment, do not use aliquots that have gone through several freeze-thaw cycles. The efficiency of Champion™ Competent Cells lasts for 1 year with proper storage.
