Introduction

HiPure FFPE Nucleic acid Kit supplies a simple and rapid DNA extraction for Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue and sections samples. This kit is based on silica gel column purification technology, no phenol-chloroform extraction or alcohol precipitation. The whole extraction only takes 20 minutes (not including digestion time). DNA can be directly used for downstream applications such as PCR, southern blot and viral DNA detection, etc.

Principle

Hipure FFPE Nuclear acid kit adopts silica gel column purification. The sample is deparaffinated by xylene and digested by lysate and protease. After decrosslinked at 90 ℃, DNA/RNA is released into the lysate. Adding ethanol to adjust the binding conditions, the sample is transferred to the column where DNA/RNA is adsorbed on the membrane and protein is removed without adsorption. Protein and other impurities are washed by buffer GW1, and the salt is removed by buffer GW2. Finally, the DNA / RNA is eluted by low salt buffer.

Advantages

• Safety – deparaffinating without contacting with xylene or other toxic solution
• Fast – without overnight incubation and digestion, several samples can be extracted within 2hours
• High efficiency – remove the formaldehyde modification of DNA, greatly enhancing the sensitivity of PCR
• High yield – most optimal process to ensure the highest recovery
• High recovery – silica gel column purification method can recover nucleic acid at the level of PG

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. The entire kit can be stored at 2-8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.

The NGS Low Input DNA Library Prep Kit (illumina and MGI Platforms) was developed for construction of high quality NGS libraries with low input DNA amount from 1 ng to 400 ng. The kit allows scientist to study samples with limited DNA such as tumor samples, patient samples, and other specially collected samples (FACS sorting etc.). The kit has high library conversion efficiency with as little as 1 ng DNA input. The fast and simple 1.5-hour protocol makes libraries with even coverage and low GC-bias based our unique chemistry for DNA end-polishing and ligation.

The kit needs double strand DNA fragments (blunt and/or sticky) as input DNA for NGS library preparation, and is compatible with DNA fragments generated from both enzymatic approach (for example, BioDynami DNA fragmentation enzymes, Cat.# 40061 and Cat.# 40062) and mechanical approaches such as sonication and nebulization etc.

NGS Low Input DNA Library Prep Kit Workflow

Three index types are available for the NGS Low Input DNA Library Prep Kit of illumina platform:

Non-index (Cat.# 30022): Libraries do not have index.

Index (Cat.# 30024): Each of our index primers contains a unique barcode sequence with 6 bases that can be used to identify the low input DNA libraries. Library multiplexing up to 48 samples is possible. Index information can be downloaded here.

Unique dual index (Cat.# 30025): Library multiplexing up to 96 low input DNA libraries is possible with unique dual indexes with our Four-Base Difference Index System. The system allows us to make indexes for the libraries that have at least 4 bases different from each other in the 8-base barcode length. Our unique dual index primers can reduce sequencing errors such as de-multiplexing errors, amplification errors, mis-assignment of reads, index cross-contamination, and also index hopping. The kit  includes 96 pre-mixed unique pairs of index primers. Index information can be downloaded here.

Indexes are available for the MGI platform kits (Cat.# 34024).

Kit advantages:

• • • Fast protocol
      • The hands-on time is only 10 minutes
      • The total protocol time is around 1.5 hours
    • Simple procedure
      • Ready-to-use master mix makes it simple for reaction setup
      • Less reaction components
    • Less magnetic beads required for cleanup steps: Save the cost more than 50%
    • Low input DNA amount: Starts from 1 ng of DNA

Comparison of library yield under the same NGS library prep condition. Input DNA amounts are 1 ng, 10 ng, and 100 ng. DNA was mechanical sheared with Covaris before library prep. BioDynami kit (Cat. #30022). PCR cycle numbers were indicated.

Overview

• Fast and easy recovery of DNA from agarose gel fragments
• High recovery of desired DNA
• Convenient spin column format
• DNA is ready for ligation, restriction digestion, sequencing and more

This kit is designed for the rapid preparation and purification of DNA fragments that have been fractionated on agarose gels. The recovered DNA is free from agarose and other impurities, and is compatible with restriction enzyme digestion, ligation into vectors and sequencing.  The protocol can be completed in 20 minutes.
