Clostridium difficile is rod-shaped, gram positive bacterium. It is the main causal agent of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and pseudomembranous colitis. The colonization of intestines by C. difficile is usually associated with the elimination of natural intestinal flora as a result of antibiotic application and is frequently reported in health care centers. While C. difficile infection could be severe and life-threatening, particularly among the elderly, many patients are asymptomatic making diagnosis challenging during outbreaks. The tradition method of detecting C. difficile infection is by cytotoxicity test of the toxin produced by the bacterium, but such protocols usually require extensive time before conclusion can be made.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.
All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.

Bis-propargyl-PEG12 has two alkyne groups at both ends of the linker. With the catalyzation of copper, the alkyne groups reacts with azide compounds to form stable triazole linkages. The PEG spacer enhances the water-solubility of the compound. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

The HiPure Minipreps system provides a fast, simple, and cost-effective plasmid DNA miniprep method for routine molecular biology laboratory applications. HiPure Miniprep Kits use silica membrane technology to eliminate the cumbersome steps associated with loose resins or slurries. Plasmid DNA purified with Mini Kits is immediately ready for use. Phenol extraction and ethanol precipitation are not required, and high quality plasmid DNA is eluted in a small volume of Tris buffer or water.

The HiPure Plasmid procedure is based on alkaline lysis of bacterial cells followed by adsorption of DNA onto silica in the presence of high salt. The unique silica membrane used in the kit completely replaces glass or silica slurries for plasmid DNA minipreps. The procedure consists of 3 basic steps: Preparation and clearing of a bacterial lysate by alkaline method，then transfer the supernatant to column to bind DNA. After washing proteins and other impurities, nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mm Tris, pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).
Advantages
1. High throughput: processing 96 samples at once;
2. High yield: The purified plasmid yield can reach up to 30μg, which is greater than the yield of the magnetic bead method kit;
3. Detoxification: endotoxin content <0.1EU/μg;
4. Fast: The entire extraction can be completed in 60 minutes without the need for time-consuming alcohol precipitation;

Storage and Stability
The kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. If any precipitates form in the buffers, warm at 37℃ to dissolve. After addition of RNase A，Buffer P1 is stable for 6 months when stored at 2-8°C.
