Norgen’s Plasma/Serum Exosome and RNA Isolation Kits constitute all-in-one systems for the purification of exosomes and the sequential isolation of exosomal RNA from different plasma/serum sample volumes. The purification is based on spin column chromatography that employs Norgen’s proprietary resin. These kits are designed to isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias. These kits provide a clear advantage over other available kits in that they do not require any special instrumentation, protein precipitation reagents, extension tubes, phenol/chloroform or protease treatments. The RNA isolated from the purified exosomes is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and is of the highest integrity. The purified RNA 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.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is 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.

Important Note
This kit is suitable for the purification of exosomes from fresh or frozen serum or plasma prepared from blood collected on either EDTA or Citrate. Plasma samples prepared from blood collected on heparin should not be used as heparin can significantly interfere with many downstream applications such as RT-PCR.

The NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit (ion torrent platform) was developed for construction of high quality libraries for next generation sequencing for ion torrent platform. The kit uses intact genomic DNA (both EDTA-free DNA and DNA in TE buffer are compatible) as input DNA without an additional DNA fragmentation step. Our NGS kit has a fast and simple workflow with only three step. In addition,  all steps can be performed in one tube. The DNA libraries can be generated within one hour with less than 10 minutes of  hands-on time. Library multiplexing up to 12 samples is possible.

NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit Workflow

The incorporation of DNA fragmentation in the kit makes it possible to directly use intact genomic DNA as input DNA without the need of mechanical DNA shearing or enzymatic DNA fragmentation. The protocol is optimized to generate libraries from 200 bp to 500 bp in size. The library size is inversely correlated with the incubation time of step 1 at 20°C.

Kit features:

• • • Fast: 1-hour library construction from intact genomic DNA to NGS library
    • • Total time: 1 hr
      • Hands-on time: 5 min
    • Intact genomic DNA can be used directly as input; DNA fragmentation is not required.
    • Works with both EDTA-free DNA samples and DNA samples in TE buffer
    • Simple workflow
    • • Three steps
      • Only one beads purification step
    • Guaranteed quality: high library conversion efficiency based on our chemistry

Library conversion efficiency for NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit (Ion Torrent Platform). 100 ng, 300 ng and 500 ng of DNA were used as input.
