Microcystin are a class of hepatotoxins produced by blue-green algae such as Microcystis aeruginosa. Microcystin-LR is the most common of the over 50 different congeners. Cyanobacteria can produce microcystin in large quantities during an algae bloom which then pose a major threat.
This kit can be used for quantitative test of Microcystin in liquid samples such as water, wastewater, algal cultures, and solid samples such as fish.

Product Info
The NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit (ion torrent platform) was developed for construction of high quality libraries for next generation sequencing for ion torrent platform. The kit uses intact genomic DNA (both EDTA-free DNA and DNA in TE buffer are compatible) as input DNA without an additional DNA fragmentation step. Our NGS kit has a fast and simple workflow with only three step. In addition, all steps can be performed in one tube. The DNA libraries can be generated within one hour with less than 10 minutes of hands-on time. Library multiplexing up to 12 samples is possible.
NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit Workflow
The incorporation of DNA fragmentation in the kit makes it possible to directly use intact genomic DNA as input DNA without the need of mechanical DNA shearing or enzymatic DNA fragmentation. The protocol is optimized to generate libraries from 200 bp to 500 bp in size. The library size is inversely correlated with the incubation time of step 1 at 20°C.
Kit features:
Fast: 1-hour library construction from intact genomic DNA to NGS library
Total time: 1 hr
Hands-on time: 5 min
Intact genomic DNA can be used directly as input; DNA fragmentation is not required.
Works with both EDTA-free DNA samples and DNA samples in TE buffer
Simple workflow
Three steps
Only one beads purification step
Guaranteed quality: high library conversion efficiency based on our chemistry
Library conversion efficiency for NGS DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Kit (Ion Torrent Platform). 100 ng, 300 ng and 500 ng of DNA were used as input.

Cluster of differentiation 57 (CD57), also known as NK-1, is an antigen detectable in natural killer cells, some T-lymphocytes and normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells, myeloid cells, and a variety of polypeptides, lipids, and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. CD57 is indicated as a marker for tumors of neuroendocrine origin, including pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, carcinoid tumor, and medulloblastomas, as well as various neural tumors including neuromas, neurofibromas, schwannomas, and granular cell tumors. CD57 is also detectable in ganglioneuroma and prostate carcinoma. Anti-CD57 is used to distinguish nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin’s lymphoma from T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma, nodular sclerosis Hodgkin’s disease, and follicular lymphoma.
RNA/microRNA/DNA/Proteins are preserved for more than 2 years at room temperature in Norgen’s Urine Preservative
Compatible with most DNA, Total RNA, microRNA and protein isolation methods
Preservative is available in a single dose liquid format (ampule)
Preservative is also available in a dried format in tubes – Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes
Urine Collection and Preservation Devices are available in 4 convenient sizes: 5 cc tubes, 15 cc tubes, 50 cc tubes, and 120 cc cups
Norgen’s Urine Preservative is designed for the rapid preservation of DNA, RNA, microRNA and proteins from fresh urine samples. In addition, the Urine 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 Urine Preservative allow samples to be stored for over 2 years at room temperature with no detected degradation of urine DNA, RNA or proteins.
Norgen’s Urine Preservative is available in 2 convenient formats:
1. Urine Preservative Single Dose Ampules With this product Norgen’s Urine Preservative is supplied in a liquid format in single dose ampules. The user simply collects 5 – 50 mL of urine into a urine collection container and adds the contents of the Urine Preservative Single Dose (Cat# 18126). The urine and preservative are then mixed, and the urine nucleic acids and proteins are preserved at room temperature.
2. Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes Norgen’s Urine Preservative is also available in a dried format in Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes. The user simply collects urine into the tubes and mixes gently until the orange preservative pellet in the tube has dissolved. Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes are available in 3 convenient sizes:
Select Urine Tested with the Norgen Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes
Human Mouse Lynx Wolf Urine collected from snow
Available Sizes and Formats
Urine Preservative Single Dose Ampule – Urine inputs from 5 – 50 mL
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All tubes should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature (15 – 25°C) for up to 2 years without any reduction in performance.
