Description

The Aflatoxin M1 plate kit is a competitive enzyme-labeled immunoassay. The Aflatoxin M1 sample extract and calibrators are pipetted into the test wells followed by the Aflatoxin M1 antibody into the test wells to initiate the reaction. During the 30 minutes incubation period, Aflatoxin M1 from the sample and Aflatoxin M1 antigen compete for binding to the Aflatoxin M1 antibody. The Aflatoxin M1 antibody is captured on the walls of the test well. Following this 30-minute incubation, the contents of the wells are removed and the wells are washed to remove any unbound Aflatoxin M1 and free Aflatoxin M1 antibody. After wash, 1X HRP-conjugated Antibody#2 is added for 30 minutes incubation. The wells are washed afterwards, and a clear substrate is then added to the wells and any bound enzyme conjugate causes the conversion to a blue color. Following a 15-minute incubation, the reaction is stopped and the amount of color in each well is read. The color of the unknown samples is compared to the color of the calibrators and the Aflatoxin M1 concentration of the samples is derived.

Overview

• Purification and enrichment of intact urinary exosomes for functional studies
• Isolate all sizes of RNA, including microRNA, irrespective of size or GC content, without bias.
• Versatile urine input volumes
• No phenol extractions, Proteinase K treatment, nor carrier RNA required
• No time-consuming ultracentrifugation, filtration nor special syringes are required
• No precipitation reagents nor overnight incubation required
• Compatible with urine from most species
• Pure exosomes are purified and are free from any other RNA-binding proteins
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin
• The purified RNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications, including Small RNA Sequencing. Find out more information on Norgen’s NGS services

Norgen’s Exosome Purification and RNA Isolation Kits constitute all-in-one systems for the purification of exosomes and the subsequent isolation of exosomal RNA from different urine 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. Moreover, the kit allows the user to elute into a flexible elution volume ranging from 50 µL to 100 µL. The purified RNA is free from any protein-bound circulating RNA and 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 buffers 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
Urine samples stored at -70°C, -20°C or at 4°C will develop some precipitation due to the aggregation of some of the highly abundant proteins in urine. Eliminating these precipitates using centrifugation or filtration may cause the loss of exosomes. Furthermore, these precipitates may affect the quality of the purified nucleic acid. We recommend the use of Norgen’s Urine Preservative when collecting urine samples, which is designed for the preservation of nucleic acids and proteins in fresh urine samples 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 as a liquid format in Norgen’s Urine Preservative Single Dose Ampules, as well as in a dried format in Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes.

N-(Boc-PEG3)-N-bis-(PEG3-Amino-Tri-(Propargyl-PEG2-ethoxymethyl)-methane) is a crosslinker consisting of six propargyl groups and a t-Boc protected aminooxy group. The propargyl groups can form triazole linkage with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules via copper catalyzed Click Chemistry. The protected amine can be deprotected under acidic conditions. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. Reagent grade, for research use only.
