Introduction

Free-circulating nucleic acids, such as tumor-specific extracellular DNA fragments and mRNAs in the blood or fetal nucleic acids in maternal blood, are present in serum or plasma usually as short fragments, <1000bp (DNA). HiPure Circulating DNA Midi Kit enables efficient purification of these circulating nucleic acids from human plasma, serum, or urine. The extracted products can be used for clinical in vitro detection.

Principle

This product is based on silica Column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer.

Advantages

• High yield – most optimal process, free DNA (>50bp) can be obtained to the maximum extent
• High concentration – low elution volume, ensuring high nucleic acid concentration
• High purity – low alcohol binding method, completely removing inhibitor and protein pollution
• High recovery – DNA can be recovered at thelevel of PG by silica gel column purification

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K, Carrier RNA should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 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.

Overview

• Quantified standard to be used as a positive control or PCR quantification standard
• Vigorously quantified using multiple methods
• Includes partial sequence of STX-1 subunit A, and STX-2 subunit A genes (please refer to product insert for more details)
• Compatible with E. coli O157:H7 TaqMan PCR Detection Kit and E. coli O157:H7 TaqMan PCR Detection Probe/Primer and Control Set

E. coli O157:H7 is a rod-shaped, gram negative bacterium. It is an enterohemorrhagic strain of the common E. coli bacterium and infection by the O157:H7 strain is commonly associated with hemorrhagic colitis. E. coli O157:H7 is recognized by its somatic (cell wall) antigen (O157) and its flagella antigen (H7). In addition, E. coli O157:H7 is known to produce Shiga-like toxins, which cause severe symptoms. While most patients can recover from the infection, up to 15% of the patients may develop hemolytic uremic syndrome, a type of kidney failure that could be fatal. Infection of E. coli O157:H7 usually results from consumption of poorly prepared food including undercooked meat (particularly ground beef), untreated water or raw unpasteurized milk.

Norgen’s E. coli O157:H7 Quantified Bacterial DNA Standards are cloned fragments of the two Shiga-like toxin regions purified using Norgen’s sample preparation technology. They include partial sequences of STX-1 subunit A gene and STX-2 subunit A gene. Please refer to Appendix A for sequence information. The purified DNA is quantified vigorously using multiple methods including spectrophotometry, gel densitometry and real-time PCR. It is intended to be used as positive controls or PCR quantification standards for E. coli O157:H7. This product is compatible with Norgen Biotek’s E. coli O157:H7 Taqman PCR Detection Kit (Cat. TM41350) and E. coli O157:H7 Taqman PCR Detection Probe/Primer and Control Set (Cat. TM41310).
