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

1. Champion™ Competent Cells
2. pUC19 Control Plasmid (5 μl, 10-4 μg/μl)
3. Champion™ Transformation Protocol Card

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.

Introduction

A rapid, high performance dye-terminator removal process based on the paramagnetic bead technology. The paramagnetic bead format requires no centrifugation or filtration and is easily performedmanually or fully automated for high throughput dye-terminator removal. Compared to similar systems, this product produces sequences with longer Phred 20 read lengths and higher signal intensities than any other purification technology.

Applications	Automated sequences
Purification technology	Magnetic beads technology
Process method	Manual or automatic
Sample type	DNA doped with fluorescentdye
Sample amount	5μl

Principle

The CleanSeq method contains magnetic particles in an optimized binding buffer to selectively capture sequencing extension products. The protocol can be performed directly in the thermal cycling plate. Unincorporated dyes, nucleotides, salts and contaminants are removed using a simple washing procedure. The purification procedure is amenable to a variety of automation platforms since it requires no centrifugation or vacuum filtration.

Advantages

• High recovery – up to 90%
• High throughput – using magnetic beads purification technology
• Simple – simplified operation process, combination – washing – elution

Storage and Stability

CleanSeq Beads should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival and is stable up to 6 months under the condition. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect its performance. Mix CleanSeq Beads well before using. The reagent should appear homogenous and consistent in color.

Megazyme’s catalase assay kit provides a simple colourimetric method for the measurement of catalase activity. The method is delivered in a fast and reliable format and may be used to detect catalase activity in various samples, including food, biological and bacterial samples. The calculation method included allows for significant variation in the concentration of the H₂O₂ substrate solution that is employed in the assay which translates into a reduction in the ‘hands on’ time required by the analyst in comparison to other commercial kits.

See our complete list of assay kits for the measurement enzyme activity.

Advantages

• Very cost effective 
• Simple, convenient, rapid assay 
• Standard included  
• Mega-Calc™ software tool is available from our website for hassle-free raw data processing
