Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes are closed, evacuated plastic tubes for the collection and the preservation of cf-DNA, circulating tumor DNA, cf-RNA and circulating tumor cells in human whole blood samples during storage and shipping. Using these tubes in combination with Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Cell-Free Circulating DNA Purification Kits or Norgen’s Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Kits enables the purification and concentration of an inhibitor-free cf-DNA/ct-DNA/cf-RNA in a very small elution volume. Plasma recovered from Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes is also compatible with any other cf-DNA and/or cf-RNA purification method. The purified cf-DNA, ct-DNA and cf-RNA are compatible with any downstream application assays, including PCR, qPCR, rt-qPCR, methylation-sensitive PCR, Southern Blot analysis, gene expression analysis, microarrays and NGS.
This product is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Performance
Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes abridge the collection/processing of whole blood for the subsequent purification of cf-DNA and/or cf-RNA. The cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes preserve and inhibit the programmed cell-death (apoptosis) of the blood, hence preventing the release of intracellular DNA/RNA into plasma. Whole blood samples can be shipped and stored at room temperature for the subsequent processing of plasma. The cf/ct DNA and cf-RNA levels are stable for up to 30 days at room temperature. The cf-DNA is also stable for up to 8 days at 37°C. When blood collected on Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA tubes is processed for plasma recovery no buffy coat will be generated and the Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) will be located at the bottom of the tube with the blood sediment. CTCs are stable for 14 days at room temperature where it can be extracted from the blood sediment or from whole preserved blood for cell sorting or for cf/DNA or cf-RNA purification.
Plasma samples produced from the whole blood sample collected into Norgen’s cf-DNA/cf-RNA Preservative Tubes and purified using Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Cell-Free Circulating DNA Purification Kits or Norgen’s Plasma/Serum RNA Purification Kits yield concentrated, high-quality and inhibitor-free cf-DNA/ct-DNA or cf-RNA for any downstream application.

Principle overview
This kit is based on a room temperature and constant temperature nucleic acid rapid amplification technology: at room temperature and constant temperature, the recombinase and primer form the protein/single-stranded nucleotide complex Rec/ssDNA, with the help of auxiliary proteins and single-stranded binding protein SSB , invade the double-stranded DNA template; form a D-loop region at the invasion site, and start scanning the DNA double-strands; after finding the target region complementary to the primer, the Rec/ssDNA complex disintegrates, and the polymerase also binds to The 3′ end of the primer initiates chain extension. This kit relies on the action of exonuclease at 39 ºC, adding specific molecular probes designed based on the template, and using fluorescence monitoring equipment to achieve real-time monitoring of the amplification process of the target fragment.
Primer design
It is recommended to use primers with a length of 30-35 bp. Primers that are too short will affect amplification speed and detection sensitivity; primers are designed to avoid the formation of secondary structures that affect amplification; the amplicon length is recommended to be 150-300 bp, usually no more than 500 bp.
Fluorescent probe design
The probe sequence does not overlap with the specific primer recognition site, is 46-52 nt in length, and the sequence avoids palindromic sequences, internal secondary structures, and continuous repeated bases. The probe has four modification sites: the middle position ≥ 35 nt from the 5′ end is labeled with a dSpacer (tetrahydrofuran, THF) as the recognition site for exonuclease; the upstream of the THF site is labeled with a fluorescent group, and the downstream Label a quenching group, the distance between the two groups is 2-4 nt; THF is ≥15 nt from the 3′ end, and the 3′ end is labeled with a modifying group, such as an amine group, a phosphate group or a C3-Spacer.
Product features and advantages:
This kit has the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity,and short reaction time (only 20 minutes), and the reaction groups are in dry powder state, which is easy to operate and easy to store.
It can be applied to various brands of fluorescence quantitative PCR instruments, constant temperature fluorescence amplification instruments and other fluorescence detection equipment.
