Hipure viral RNA kit is suitable for purifying viral RNA from samples such as cell-free body fluid or culture medium. The kit is based on silica gel column purification technology. It requires no toxic phenol chloroform extraction and time-consuming alcohol precipitation in the extraction. The whole extraction process takes only 25 minutes. The kit is suitable for extracting viral RNA from 1-140µl cell-free fluid samples such as serum, plasma, cell-free body fluid or culture medium. The product has successfully extracted hepatitis B A/C, hepatitis C RNA, SARS and HIV. The obtained RNA can be directly used for RT-PCR, Northern hybridization and virus detection.

Hipure silica gel column is based on glass fiber filter membrane with high binding force. Under the condition of high concentration of ionizing agent (such as guanidine hydrochloride or guanidine isothiocyanate), the filter membrane can adsorb nucleic acid through hydrogen bond and electrostatic, while protein and other impurities are not adsorbed and removed. The filter membrane adsorbed with nucleic acid is washed to remove the residual protein and salt. Finally, the nucleic acid adsorbed on the filter membrane can be washed out with low salt buffer (such as buffer TE) or water. The obtained nucleic acid has high purity and can be directly used in various downstream experiments.
The sample is homogenized and lysed in the lysate, and RNA is released into the lysate. The high concentration of guanidine isothiocyanate contained in the lysate denatured and inactivated endogenous or exogenous RNase, while RNA is protected from degradation. The lysate is centrifuged to remove insoluble impurities. After adding ethanol to adjust the binding conditions, it is transferred to the column for filtration. RNA is adsorbed on the membrane of the column, while protein is removed without adsorption. The column is washed with buffer VHB to remove protein and other impurities, washed with buffer RW2 to remove salt. Finally the RNA is eluted by RNase free water. The eluted RNA can be directly used in RT-PCR, Northern blot, poly-A purification, in vitro translation, etc.

Storage and Stability
Carrier RNA 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 theseconditions

Introducing the Fastin Assay Kit: Your Straightforward Solution for Elastin Quantification! Our user-friendly kit utilizes a dye-based method to measure elastin from in-vivo and in-vitro sources. It can be used to quantify various elastin forms, spanning from immature tropoelastin to mature, ‘insoluble’ elastin fibers.
Colorimetric Detection (513nm) (Endpoint)
Tissues like lungs and arteries must maintain the ability to stretch and recoil repeatedly throughout an organism’s life. Elastin, a mature protein, is responsible for this elasticity and is usually present as insoluble fibers within the ECM. During development, these fibers are initially formed from a soluble precursor called tropoelastin.
The Biocolor Fastin assay is a user-friendly, dye-based means of quantifying elastins derived from both in-vivo and in-vitro sources. A variety of elastin forms can be assayed, from immature tropoelastin to mature ‘insoluble’ elastin fibres.
Further information on how the assay works can be found on the ‘Mode of Action‘ tab.
A list of suggested sample types can be found under the ‘Assay Specification‘ tab.
The Fastin Dye Reagent contains an elastin-binding synthetic porphyrin, TPPS (5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl- 21H,23H-porphine). This affinity of TPPS for elastin was first observed when used as a ‘vital stain’ on live animals. Most tissues took up the dye initially but only elastin retained the TPPS molecules over time. [Winkelman, J. (1962), Cancer Res. 22, 589-596; Winkelman, J & Spicer, S. (1962), Stain Technol. 37, 303-305].
It has been proposed that the elastin binding of TPPS may be due to the retention of the acidic dye (which contains four charged sulfate groups) by the basic amino acid side chain residues of elastin.
Step 1. Incubation of samples containing soluble elastin with the Fastin Dye Reagent causes an elastin-dye complex to form. This insoluble complex then precipiates.
Step 2. Dye-labelled elastin is then isolated by centrifugation and the unbound dye removed. Elastin-bound dye is then eluted and measured spectrophotometrically.
Step 3. The elastin content of unknown samples can be calculated by comparison against a calibration curve prepared using a standard comprising water-soluble elastin (supplied with the kit).

110 in total (allows a maximum of 48 samples to be run in duplicate alongside a standard curve).
In-vivo: tissues and fluids. Insoluble elastin will first require conversion to water soluble α-elastin using the oxalic acid reagents and extraction protocol supplied with the kit.
In-vitro: Elastin produced by cells during 2D/3D cell culture. NB elastin in conditioned cell media is typically below the detection limit of the kit.
This kit is designed for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Kit requires access to a centrifuge, heated water bath or block, as well as a spectrophotometer or colorimeter capable of absorbance detection at 513nm.
