This product is based on silica column purification. Remove paraffin by Buffer DPS. Sample lysis withproteinase K digestion requires only 15 minutes. After lysis, samples are incubated at 80ºC for 15 minutes. Transfer to an adsorption column and RNA is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed andis removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, RNA was finally eluted with low-saltbuffer.

Storage and Stability
Proteinase K should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. DNase I should be stored at -20°C. However, short-term storage (DNase I up to 1 weeks, Proteinase K up to 8 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.

Norgen’s Swab Collection and DNA Preservation System is designed for collection, ambient storage and transport of DNA from samples collected using a swab, including nasal, buccal, saliva, fecal, skin, surfaces, etc. The Swab Collection and DNA Preservation System contains Norgen’s Swab Preservative in a liquid format. The user simply collects the specimen using the provided swab, and then transfers the swab into the Swab Preservative. The Swab Preservative prevents the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and fungi, and also inactivates viruses allowing the resulting non-infectious samples to be handled and shipped safely. In addition, the Swab 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 Swab Preservative allow DNA samples to be stored at room temperature for over 2 years.
DNA Isolation from Preservative
Swab samples collected and preserved using Norgen’s Swab Collection and DNA Preservation System are compatible with most DNA isolation methods. Samples stored in the tubes have been used successfully with most of Norgen Biotek’s DNA isolation kits and reagents. An optimized isolation procedure is available as part of Norgen’s Microbiome DNA Isolation Kit (Cat. 64100).

The JC virus (JCV) is a type of human polyomavirus and belongs to the family Papovaviridae. JCV is a double-stranded DNA virus, and is genetically similar to BK virus and SV40. The virus is very common in the general population and it is believed that most people acquire JCV in childhood or adolescence. Typically the infection is subclinical and no of consequence in children with healthy immune systems. The initial site of infection may be the tonsils or the gastrointestinal tract, and the virus then remains latent in the gastrointestinal tract. JCV can also infect the tubular epithelial cells in the kidneys, where it continues to reproduce, shedding virus particles in the urine. Also, JCV can cross the blood-brain barrier into the central nervous system. JCV is known to cause the usually fatal progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) by destroying oligodendrocytes in the brain in immunodeficient or immunosuppressed individuals. However, it has not been established whether PML is the result of a primary infection with JCV in a person with impaired immunity or whether it follows reactivation of latent virus. JC virus is also the primary cause of nephropathy (kidney disease) in people who have received a kidney transplant and are on immunosuppressive therapy.

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.
