Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit (Magnetic Beads)

The Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit (Magnetic Beads) was developed for the bacterial genomic DNA extraction from bacterial cultures directly using magnetic beads from a wide variety of gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial species, as well as yeast and other fungi. With our proprietary magnetic beads technology, the kit eliminates the tedious centrifuge steps for columns. The kit provides a reliable and simple approach for high-quality bacterial DNA isolation with fast magnetic response time and high binding capacity.

Bacteria are the most diverse and abundant small single-celled organisms and are vital to the planet’s ecosystems. Some bacterial species are pathogens that can cause a variety of diseases to humans and animals. Besides their ecological and biomedical importance, bacteria are also used in biotech and pharmaceutical applications such as production of enzymes, DNA preparation, biofuels, food research, and chemical production.

Bacterial cells are grown to log-phase and the culture is lysed directly with a lysis buffer, then mixed with beads to bind genomic DNA. After wash steps, genomic DNA is eluted in Low TE or TE Buffer. The isolated genomic DNA with the magnetic beads is free of contamination such as RNA, proteins, salts, and other impurities. Bacterial DNA extracted using the kit is suitable for downstream applications such as qPCR, PCR, DNA sequencing, Southern Blotting, molecular cloning, DNA hybridization, restriction enzymatic digestion, and Next-generation Sequencing (NGS) etc.

Features

• 100% centrifuge-free
  • Bacterial cultures can be used directly without centrifuge to pellet the bacteria
• Simple magnetic beads method
  • No centrifuge needed
  • No column needed
  • No vacuum needed

Purified genomic DNA from various bacteria were isolated with the Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit. A portion of the extracted genomic DNA was loaded on a 1% agarose gel. DNA ladder: BioDynami 1 kb Plus DNA Ladder (Cat.# 10005L).

Overview

• RNA/microRNA/DNA/Proteins are preserved for more than 2 years at room temperature in Norgen’s Urine Preservative
• Compatible with most DNA, Total RNA, microRNA and protein isolation methods
• Preservative is available in a single dose liquid format (ampule)
• Preservative is also available in a dried format in tubes – Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes
• Urine Collection and Preservation Devices are available in 4 convenient sizes: 5 cc tubes, 15 cc tubes, 50 cc tubes, and 120 cc cups

Norgen’s Urine Preservative is designed for the rapid preservation of DNA, RNA, microRNA and proteins from fresh urine samples. In addition, the Urine Preservative eliminates the need to immediately process or freeze samples and allows the samples to be shipped to centralized testing facilities at ambient temperatures. The components of the Urine Preservative allow samples to be stored for over 2 years at room temperature with no detected degradation of urine DNA, RNA or proteins.

Norgen’s Urine Preservative is available in 2 convenient formats:

1.  Urine Preservative Single Dose Ampules
With this product Norgen’s Urine Preservative is supplied in a liquid format in single dose ampules. The user simply collects 5 – 50 mL of urine into a urine collection container and adds the contents of the Urine Preservative Single Dose (Cat# 18126). The urine and preservative are then mixed, and the urine nucleic acids and proteins are preserved at room temperature.

2.  Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes
Norgen’s Urine Preservative is also available in a dried format in Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes. The user simply collects urine into the tubes and mixes gently until the orange preservative pellet in the tube has dissolved. Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes are available in 3 convenient sizes:

• 5 cc tubes, 1 – 5 mL of urine
• 15 cc tubes, 5 – 15 mL of urine
• 50 cc tubes, 5 – 45 mL of urine
• 120 cc cup, 100 – 120 mL of urine

Sulfo DBCO-PEG3-acid is an analog of DBCO-Acid with PEG linker and a DBCO group. The DBCO groups is commonly used for copper-free Click Chemistry reactions due to its strain promoted high energy. The hydrophilic PEG chain and sulfo group increase water solubility. The terminal carboxylic acid can react with primary amine groups in the presence of activators (e.g. EDC, or HATU) to form a stable amide bond. Reagent grade, for research purpose.
