Overview

• Fractionate leukocytes from whole blood in minutes with provided RBC Lysis Buffer
• Isolate total RNA, including microRNA, without phenol
• Rapid and convenient spin-column format and 96-well plate for high throughput applications
• Purified RNA is ready for any downstream application including RT-PCR, qRT-PCR, NGS, arrays and more. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

These kits provide a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total leukocyte (white blood cell) RNA from mammalian blood samples. These kits are supplied with an RBC (red blood cell) Lysis Buffer for selective removal of red blood cells and fractionation of leukocytes by centrifugation. Isolation of leukocyte RNA results in improved expression profiling and other downstream applications by removing the masking effects of some RNAs which are very abundant in whole blood, such as globin mRNAs. These kits are able to isolate total leukocyte RNA, including both large mRNA and all small RNA species containing microRNA (miRNA) and small silencing RNA (siRNA). The purified RNA is of the highest quality and can be used in a number of downstream applications.

Leukocyte RNA Purification Kit (Spin Column)

This kit provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total leukocyte RNA from mammalian blood samples in 40 minutes. Allowable blood input ranges from 10 μL to 2 mL or 3 x 10⁶ Leukocytes

Leukocyte RNA Purification Plus Kit (Plus)

Norgen’s Leukocyte RNA Purification Plus Kit provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total leukocyte (white blood cell) RNA from up to 3 mL of mammalian blood samples. Complete 10 purifications in as little as 40 minutes.

Leukocyte RNA Purification 96-Well Kit (High Throughput)

Purification is based on 96-well column chromatography using Norgen’s proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Purification can be performed using either a vacuum manifold or centrifugation. Norgen’s kit allows for the isolation of total leukocyte RNA, including all small RNA species. The purified RNA is of the highest quality and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, northern blotting, RNase protection and primer extension, and expression array assays. Allowable blood input ranges from 10 μL to 1 mL or 1.5 x 10⁶ Leukocytes.

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.

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.

Description

The Primerdesign genesig Kit for Shigella species (Shigella_spp) genomes is designed for the in vitro quantification of Shigella_spp genomes. The kit is designed to have a broad detection profile. Specifically,  the primers represent 100% homology with over 95% of the NCBI database reference sequences available at the time of design.

The dynamics of genetic variation means that new sequence information may become available after the initial design. Primerdesign periodically reviews the detection profiles of our kits and when required releases new versions.

The target sequence is within the virulence plasmid pCP301 (VirA) which is carried by nearly all clinical isolates of shigella. This target has previously been shown to be a good genetic marker for Shigella in other real time PCR based studies (Hiroshi Fukushima et.al 2003.) The primers and probe sequences in this kit have 100% homology with over 95% of reference sequences in the NCBI database based on a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis.

Exceptional value for money
Rapid detection of all clinically relevant subtypes
Positive copy number standard curve for quantification
Highly specific detection profile
High priming efficiency
Broad dynamic detection range (>6 logs)
Sensitive to < 100 copies of target Accurate controls to confirm findings
