Clostridium difficile is rod-shaped, gram positive bacterium. It is the main causal agent of antibiotic-associated diarrhea and pseudomembranous colitis. The colonization of intestines by C. difficile is usually associated with the elimination of natural intestinal flora as a result of antibiotic application and is frequently reported in health care centers. While C. difficile infection could be severe and life-threatening, particularly among the elderly, many patients are asymptomatic making diagnosis challenging during outbreaks. The tradition method of detecting C. difficile infection is by cytotoxicity test of the toxin produced by the bacterium, but such protocols usually require extensive time before conclusion can be made.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.
All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.

The Bisulfite Sequencing Library Prep Kit (illumina platform) was developed for construction of NGS libraries using bisulfite treated DNA (50 ng – 500 ng) as input. DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism known to play a critical role in gene regulation and genomic imprinting by blocking transcription factor access to promoters and enhancers. Bisulfite sequencing is a popular technique in biomedical research based on C to T conversion under the treatment of sodium bisulfite.
Recently, NGS became a powerful tool to identify the DNA methylation status at the whole genome level with single-base resolution. However, it is well known that bisulfite treatment of the NGS libraries causes tremendous damage to the libraries.
Bisulfite-Seq kit comparison
In the case of the regular bisulfite seq library preparation (library prep before bisulfite conversion), the DNA shearing equipment and the expensive methylated adaptors are required. In addition, the subsequent bisulfite conversion causes tremendous DNA damage to the constructed libraries.
BioDynami has developed a unique library prep technology to solve the problems. The technology uses bisulfite treated DNA as input to avoid the significant library loss caused by bisulfite conversion. Furthermore, DNA shearing step and expensive methylated adaptors are not required with our kit. The DNA polymerase in the kit has high-fidelity amplification ability and uracil tolerance which is ideal for amplification of bisulfite sequencing libraries. The final library is strand specific.
Bisulfite Sequencing Library Prep Kit Workflow
Three index types are available for the kit:
Non-index (Cat.# 30091): Libraries do not have index.
Index (Cat.# 30092): Each primer contains a unique barcode sequence of 6 bases to identify the individual library. Library multiplexing capacity is up to 48 samples. Index information can be downloaded here.
Unique dual index (Cat.# 30093): The multiplexing of bisulfite sequencing library is up to 96 samples with unique dual indexes. We used a Four-Base Difference Index System to generate indexes that have at least 4 bases different from each other in the 8-base index. The index primers remove NGS errors including index cross-contamination, index hopping, reads mis-assignment etc. Index information can be downloaded here.

DNase activity in a convenient and sensitive lateral flow colormetric assay that delivers results in real time. Great for Quality Testing for DNase contamination of materials and supplies.
Attogene’s DNaseAlarm Lateral Flow test is designed for the sensitive and accurate analysis of DNAse activity in liquid samples. DNase Alarm uses a synthetic DNA substrate that attaches to the streptavidin colloidal reporter molecule (gold) using a 5’ biotin. The DNA substrate also contains a FAM molecule that enables it to be captured by the anti-FAM antibody (test line). In the absence of DNases, the DNA oligo tethers gold to the test line giving a visual test line. When DNases are present, the DNA substrate is degraded, and the gold particles can no longer be tethered to the test line thus, signal is lost. Since the cleavage of the DNA Substrate increases over time when DNase activity is present, results can be evaluated kinetically. This assay has applications for quality control testing and analysis of unit activities of DNase and DNase inhibitors. DNase’s can cause havoc in laboratories working with DNA and are important to perform routine testing.
This test can be used to rapidly and efficiently detect DNase’s in both liquid and on solid surfaces and a perfect tool for monitoring manufacturing.
