Permagen’s most universal ring magnet plate. From Low elution PCR applications up to 2 mL deep well, the X96 has you covered. No need to purchase two separate plates anymore. Smaller inner ring magnet allows for volumes as low as 5 µL (from PCR plates), larger outer magnet handles up to 2 mL deep well assays

ANSI/ SBS Footprint (127.75mm x 85.50mm) to fit into any automated liquid handling robot on bottom, SBS/ SLAS fit on top to accept any microplate

Integrated Cushion base for maximum recovery. Helps aid in set-up, robot positioning inconsistencies, and labware consumable differences 

Features include solid aluminum alloy construction and hard coat anodized finish for years of trouble-free use, and compatible with any magnetic beads

Overview

• Protocol optimized for DNA isolated from a diversity of samples including stool, soil, water, saliva, plant, urine, skin, and more
• Simple and quick workflow: library could be prepared in less than 5 hours
• Component of Norgen’s metagenomics workflow
• A single NGS run can be prepared with up to 384 unique dual-index libraries

Sample type purification kit guide 

The 16S V1-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina consists of the reagents and components required for library preparation of the 16S V1-V3 amplicon libraries to be used for next-generation sequencing on Illumina platforms. All molecular reagents including primers, enzyme mixes, indexes, and buffers are provided. Instructions for PCR clean up with the AMPure XP Magnetic Beads (supplied by customer) are also included for rapid purification of nucleic acid products generated at two steps of the workflow. The library prep workflow could be used for purified DNA inputs from different sources including stool, soil, water, saliva, plant, urine, skin swab, vaginal swab, cheek swab, nasal swab, plasma/serum, tongue swab, gum swab, and others.

The 16S V1-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina has a streamlined procedure that reduces the handling time such that the library prep procedure can be completed in approximately 4 hours (see diagram below). Input DNA is first subjected to targeted PCR to amplify the V1-V3 region of the DNA encoding 16S rRNA. The post-PCR reaction is then cleaned up using AMPure XP beads. Dual index primers are then added using a limited-cycle PCR. The indexed amplicons flanked by 5′ and 3′ barcoded adaptors are then cleaned using AMPure XP beads. The libraries are then ready for quantification, pooling and sequencing.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
Norgen’s 16S V1-V3 Library Prep Kit for Illumina is shipped as one kit box (for the 24 prep kit) or two sub-component kits (for the 96 prep kit). All kits should be stored at -20°C upon arrival.

All kit components should remain stable for at least 1 year when stored at the specified storage conditions.

Magnetic Beads (Short Oligo Purification)

Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization (SPRI) beads are a simple and effective reagent for DNA purification, but not for short oligo purification. The beads are paramagnetic particles coated with carboxyl groups that can reversibly bind to nucleic acid. However, SPRI beads can only purify DNA/RNA fragments that are 100 base pairs or longer. DNA/RNA fragments shorter than 100 base pairs are not effectively recovered.

Oligo purification can also be performed using spin column-based technology. The oligo size limitation for recovery is around 20 nt, as oligos under 20 nt have a very low recovery rate.

We have developed Magnetic Beads (Short Oligo Purification) Kit for short oligo purification. Our proprietary bead technology enables the recovery of oligos as short as 6 nt. 80% of the 6 nt oligos and 90% of the > 8 nt oligos can be recovered. The reagent also effectively removes impurities and unwanted components such as salts, proteins, dNTPs, detergents, and other contaminants. The magnetic bead reagents are RNase free, and can be used for both DNA and RNA applications.

Recovery rates of of short oligos. Oligos with different sizes were used as input. BioDynami Short Oligo Quantification Kit (Cat. # 40046) was used to quantify the recovery rates with modifications.

Features

• Effective purification of short oligos
  • • 6 nt oligos: 80% recovery rate
    • >8 nt oligos: >90% recovery rate
• Removal of impurities and unwanted reaction components
