N-(Propargyl-PEG4-carbonyl)-N-bis(PEG1-acid)

Overview

• Simultaneous isolation of both host RNA and microbial RNA (universal protocol)
• Isolate full diversity of RNA from large RNA down to small and microRNAs
• Eliminates PCR inhibitors including humic acids
• High quality RNA for sensitive downstream application
• Purification is based on spin column chromatography that uses Norgen’s proprietary resin separation matrix

This kit provides a convenient and rapid method to purify total RNA from small amounts of stool samples. All types of stool samples can be processed with this kit, including animal fecal samples, manure and samples collected using Norgen’s Stool Nucleic Acid Collection and Preservation Tubes (Cat. 45660). The kit removes all traces of humic acids using rapid and simple spin column procedures. Bead tubes are also provided for effective homogenization of stool. The kit purifies all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA and small interfering RNA. Both host and microbial RNA is recovered. The protocol does not rely on the use of phenol or chloroform, thereby providing a user friendly procedure and allowing high-throughput analysis. The purified RNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR and reverse transcription PCR for gene expression analysis. The procedure can be completed in approximately 30 minutes for 10 samples.

Overview

Strong adhesive aluminium PCR foil seal which is pierceable, peelable and suitable for high temperature applications.

• This aluminium foil seal has a strong acrylic adhesive which produces a seal of high integrity
• It was developed for PCR and other high temperature applications due to its effectiveness in preventing sample evaporation
• The QuickSeal Foil PCR Ultra Seal is pierceable; when pierced, the foil tears in an irregular manner which prevents the formation of a vacuum
• It also has perforated end tabs for easy application and removal by peeling
• For all adhesive seals, the best sealing results are achieved using our Hand Roller or KAPS 500 Auto Sealer

Description 

The FluoroStain™ Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye (Red, 1000×) is designed to substitute the common Coomassie Blue protein staining method, offering greater sensitivity and ease of operation. Unlike Coomassie Blue stain, the FluoroStain Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye binds to protein with high specificity, making destaining process an option rather than a requirement. With further reduction of background signals via destaining process, the FluoroStain™ is capable of achieving detection level parallel to silver staining without specialized imaging equipment, making it one of the most sensitive dyes available. In addition to its remarkable sensitivity, the FluoroStain™ Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye (Red, 1000×) brings a more reliable and safer user experience, since the stained gel can be visualized with blue-light illumination, avoiding the risk of skin/ eye damage caused by UV light. For best result, we suggest using B-BOX™ Blue Light LED epi-illuminator to visualize and analyze the gel stained with FluoroStain Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye (Red, 1000×). The FluoroStain™ Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye is compatible to the analysis of mass spectra, i.e. LC-MS/MS, MALDI-TOF, etc.

Spectral Characteristics

When it is bound with bovine serum albumin (BSA), the fluorescent emission of FluoroStain Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye can be excited by UV and blue light sources, with excitation peaks around 369 and 517 nm and emission at 605 nm. In absence of BSA, FluoroStain Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye shows ignorable fluorescence as compared with protein-bound form, therefore giving a clear background for photographic analysis.

These spectral characteristics made this fluorescent dye compatible with a wide variety of gel reading facilities, including UV/ blue light epi- and transilluminator, argon laser and mercury-arc lamp excitation gel scanners.
