Description

Saxitoxins (STXs) are naturally occurring alkaloids produced by some marine dinoflagellates and by strains of various species of freshwater cyanobacteria.  Saxitoxin is one of the prevalent paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs). It belongs to a family of potent neurotoxins with a molecular weight around 300 Da. Saxitoxin and its derivatives are alkaloids composed of a tetrahydropurine ring system with a highly polar guanidinium group. Due to their significant toxicity, saxitoxins are closely monitored in marine environments where they can accumulate in the food chain during harmful algal blooms (HABs).  An action level of 800ppb, or 80ug per 100grams of shellfish, has been established.

Overview

• Simultaneous isolation of both host DNA and microbial DNA (universal protocol)
• Fully compatible with Norgen’s Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Transport Tubes
• Eliminates PCR inhibitors including humic acids
• High quality DNA for sensitive downstream applications including PCR, qPCR, Sequencing and microarray
• 96-Well and Magnetic Bead System formats also available

These kits provide a convenient and rapid method to isolate total DNA from fresh, frozen and preserved stool samples, including those preserved using Norgen’s Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Tubes (Cat. 45660). The universal protocol conveniently allows for the isolation of total genomic DNA from all the various microorganisms and host cells found in the stool sample simultaneously. Purifies the DNA with high yields and molecular weights of up to 50 kb plus. The purified DNA can be used with a number of downstream applications.

Stool DNA Isolation Kit (Spin Column)

Universal method to detect microorganism and host cell DNA simultaneously in stool samples. Eliminates PCR inhibitors including all traces of humic acid using a combination of chemical and physical homogenization and lysis. A simple and rapid spin column procedure is then used to further purify the DNA. The purified DNA is of the highest quality and is fully compatible with all downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR, NGS and microarrays since all humic acid substances and other PCR inhibitors are removed during the isolation process.

Stool DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput)

Fast and easy high throughput processing using centrifugation. Eliminates PCR inhibitors including all traces of humic acid using a combination of chemical and physical homogenization and lysis. A simple and rapid spin column procedure is then used to further purify the DNA. The purified DNA is of the highest quality and is fully compatible with all downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR, NGS and microarrays since all humic acid substances and other PCR inhibitors are removed during the isolation process.

Stool DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System)

Fast and easy processing using a magnetic bead system. Robust lysis system (chemical lysis combined with a mechanical homogenization).

Stool DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput Magnetic Bead System)

This kit provides fast and easy processing using a magnetic bead system, and a robust lysis system (chemical lysis combined with a mechanical homogenization). High throughput and compatible with an automation robotic system.
