Principle
This product is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested under the action of lysate and Protease. DNA is released into the lysate. After adding magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing solution to remove proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally DNA was eluted by Elution Buffer.
Advantages
High binding force – suitable for handling DNA rich samples, such as whole blood, buffy coat, concentrated blood, etc.
Fast – polydisperse magnetic beads, fast magnetic response and short extraction time
High purity – the obtained DNA can be directly used for second-generation sequencing, PCR based detection, gene bank, etc.
Automatic – saving time and labor and safer

Storage and Stability
Proteinase K, MagPure Particles should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 24 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15-25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. The entire kit can be stored at 2-8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.

Collagen is a fundamental component of the extracellular matrix, and the predominant protein in animals, constituting around 30% of total protein mass. A glycoprotein, it is well known for its triple helical structure. This is formed from three polypeptide α-chains with Gly-X-Y repeating residues (Gly for Glycine, X for proline, and Y for hydroxyproline).
Types of Collagen
Over 28 types of collagens have been identified, with Type I collagen being the most abundant. It’s prevalent in ligaments, tendons, skin, and bone tissue. Its mature, insoluble form grants it remarkable strength, making it vital for the mobility of organisms. Collagen also has biochemical functions, influencing cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation.
This version of the kit is designed to detect and measure SOLUBLE forms of collagen. Chose the Sircol Insoluble collagen kit if you need to analyse INSOLUBLE collagen.
Applications of Collagen
Collagen, with its diverse properties, finds utility in various industries. It plays a role in medicine for wound healing and has an expanding role in tissue engineering and cell culture for biomedical purposes. It’s gaining popularity in the cosmetic industry for skin rejuvenation and is used in chemical formulations and the food industry as a functional food supplement and additive.
How does Sircol 2.0 detect collagen?
The Sircol 2.0 dye reagent includes Sirius Red, a linear anionic dye with sulfonic acid side chains. This reagent is specially formulated to bind to the Gly-X-Yn helical structure of soluble collagen under assay conditions.
*The improved formulation of Sircol 2.0 dye enables a greater degree of dye-collagen specificity (compared to our previous S1000 assay kit).
Overview of the Sircol 2.0 assay process:
Step 1. Prepared samples are placed in the wells of the assay microplate, together with Sircol Dye Reagent. After 30 minutes mixing, any collagen-dye complexes will form as a precipitate. These are collected on the base of the microplate wells by centrifugation.
Step 2. Unbound dye is removed by gentle aspiration, followed by a rinse with Plate Wash Reagent.
Step 3. Following further centrifugation, collagen-bound dye is eluted by incubation with a Dye Release Reagent. Eluted dye is detected ‘in-situ’ by spectrophotometric analysis of the microplate at 556nm.
Step 4. The collagen content of unknown samples can be quantified by comparison against a calibration curve, prepared using the Collagen Reference Standard supplied with the kit.
A list of suggested sample types can be found under the ‘Assay Specification‘ tab.
Colorimetric Detection (556nm) (Endpoint), Requires a microplate centrifuge.
Measurements per kit
96 in total (allows a maximum of 41 samples to be run in duplicate alongside a standard curve).
Suitable Samples
Soluble* collagens from mammalian**:
In-vivo: Tissues, cartilages and fluids.
In-vitro: Extracellular matrices / Conditioned media from 2D/3D culture environments.
The straightforward sample processing and analysis of Sirco 2.0 make it a good alternative to conventional hydroxyproline analysis.
*Prior salt/acid/acid-pepsin extraction may be necessary to release soluble collagen.
**Sircol 2.0 is primarily designed for use with in-vivo / in-vitro samples of mammalian origin. Collagens originating from other taxonomic groups and kingdoms can also be analysed. See note on p6 of manual for further information.
Precautions
This kit is designed for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Kit requires access to a microplate centrifuge* (see note below), as well as a spectrophotometer/colorimeter capable of absorbance detection at 556nm. Specific sample preparation protocols may require customer to provide further reagents, consult assay manual for further information.
*As a minimum, we recommend that the centrifuge can centrifuge a 96-well microplate at 400 x g for 120 minutes. Higher speed centrifuges are recommended (up to a maximum of 2000 x g), allowing a reduction in centrifuge time.

NB: Additional reagents may be required for sample preparation prior to assay. Consult manual or contact us for further details. This kit requires the use of a microplate centrifuge, capable of centrifuging a 96-well microplate at 400 x g for 120 minutes. Higher speed centrifuges are recommended (up to a maximum of 2000 x g), allowing a reduction in centrifuge time.

The 16S V1-V2 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina consists of the reagents and components required for library preparation of the 16S V1-V2 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-V2 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-V2 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-V2 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.
