Overview
Isolate high quality, high yield plasmid DNA
Plasmid DNA is ready for various downstream applications including restriction digestion, bacterial transformation, sequencing and more
Available in 4 formats: MiniPrep, MiniPrep (Magnetic Bead System), 96-Well MiniPrep (Magnetic Bead System), and MaxiPrep
These kits are designed for the rapid preparation of plasmid DNA from Escherichia coli.
Plasmid MiniPrep Kit
This kit is designed for the rapid preparation of plasmid DNA from small cultures of Escherichia coli using convenient spin columns. The plasmid DNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components such as genomic DNA and RNA. This kit is able to purify plasmids up to 13,000 bp in size, and the typical purification yield is up to 20 μg from 1.5 mL of bacterial culture. Purified DNA is of excellent quality for transformation, restriction enzyme digestion, sequencing and more. Also available in a 96-well format.
Plasmid MiniPrep Kit (Magnetic Bead System and High Throughput Magnetic Bead System)
Norgen’s Plasmid MiniPrep Kit (Magnetic Bead System) is designed for the rapid preparation of plasmid DNA from small batch cultures of Escherichia coli. Norgen’s magnetic beads bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. The plasmid DNA is preferentially purified from other cellular components such as genomic DNA and RNA. The purified plasmids are fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested, and are completely compatible with real-time PCR and NGS.
Norgen’s Plasmid MiniPrep Kit (Magnetic Bead System) is also available in a 96-well (HT) format for high throughput applications. Purification with the 96-well plates can be integrated with a robotic automation system.
Plasmid MaxiPrep Kit
This kit is designed for the rapid spin column preparation of plasmid DNA from up to 100 mL of Escherichia coli cultures. The kit allows for the isolation of plasmid DNA with final endotoxin levels of 0.1 EU/µg of DNA or less. The kit is able to purify plasmids up to 13,000 bp in size, and typical yields from a 100 mL culture for a high copy number plasmid are between 0.4 and 1.0 mg. The purified DNA is fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested, and is completely compatible with manual or automated sequencing to achieve 95-100% accuracy.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. The RNase vial should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Once RNase has been added to the Resuspension Solution AZ the solution should be stored at 4°C. This kit is stable for 1 year after its date of shipment.

Norgen’s EXTRAClean Urine Cell-Free Circulating RNA Purification Kits provide a fast, reliable, reproducible, and simple procedure for isolating circulating RNA and exosomal RNA from various urine inputs ranging from 250 μL and up to 30 mL. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real-time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, Northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extensions, and expression array assays.
EXTRAClean Cell-Free Circulating RNA Purification Mini Kit: For sample volumes ranging from 250 μL to 2 mL
EXTRAClean Cell-Free Circulating RNA Purification Midi Kit: For sample volumes ranging from 2mL to 10mL. The first column will handle the large volume input of urine that is followed by a concentration on a mini column for a final elution of 50 μL to 100 μL
EXTRAClean Cell-Free Circulating RNA Purification Maxi Kit: For sample volumes ranging from 10 mL to 30 mL. The first column will handle the large volume input of urine that is followed by a concentration on a mini column for a final elution of 50 μL to 100 μL.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All buffers should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. These kits are stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. It is recommended to warm Lysis Buffer A for 20 minutes at 60°C if any salt precipitation is observed.
The BK virus is a member of the polyomavirus family. It has been suggested that this virus may be transmitted through respiratory fluids or urine, since infected individuals periodically excrete virus in the urine. BK viral infections are typically asymptomatic in healthy individuals, however very mild symptoms may appear including mild respiratory infections and fever. Infections with BK virus in immunocompromised or immunosupressed patients are much more severe and may involve renal dysfunction. In fact, in kidney transplant patients the immunosupressive drugs required for the transplant may allow the virus to replicate within the graft, resulting in a disease called BK virus nephropathy (BKVN). The JC virus is a type of human polyomavirus and is very common in the general population, infecting 70 to 90% of humans. Most people acquire JCV in childhood or adolescence. Typically the infection is subclinical and no of consequence in individuals with healthy immune systems. The initial site of infection may be the tonsils or the gastrointestinal tract, and the virus then remains latent in the gastrointestinal tract. JCV can also infect the tubular epithelial cells in the kidneys, where it continues to reproduce, shedding virus particles in the urine. Also, JCV can cross the blood-brain barrier into the central nervous system. JCV is known to cause the usually fatal progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) by destroying oligodendrocytes in the brain in immunodeficient or immunosuppressed individuals. The JC and BK viruses are very similar, with their genomes sharing 75% homology. It is however important to differentiate between the viruses due to the differences in pathology and especially the invariably fatal outcome of PML which is only caused by the JC virus.

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.
