Principle
HiPure RNA technology simplifies total RNA isolation. The sample material is denatured in Lysis Buffer. The protein is then precipitated by Protein Precipitation Solution and pelleted by centrifugation. After the removal of protein the binding conditions for nucleic acids are adjusted by adding isopropanol. Total nucleic acids are bound to the column. Optionally, DNA can be removed by an on-column DNase digest. The remaining nucleic acids are washed and eluted with minimal amounts of RNase-Free water.

Introduction
Hipure viral RNA kit is suitable for purifying viral RNA from samples such as cell-free body fluid or culture medium. The kit is based on silica gel column purification technology. It requires no toxic phenol chloroform extraction and time-consuming alcohol precipitation in the extraction. The whole extraction process takes only 25 minutes. The kit is suitable for extracting viral RNA from 1-140µl cell-free fluid samples such as serum, plasma, cell-free body fluid or culture medium. The product has successfully extracted hepatitis B A/C, hepatitis C RNA, SARS and HIV. The obtained RNA can be directly used for RT-PCR, Northern hybridization and virus detection.

Principle
Hipure silica gel column is based on glass fiber filter membrane with high binding force. Under the condition of high concentration of ionizing agent (such as guanidine hydrochloride or guanidine isothiocyanate), the filter membrane can adsorb nucleic acid through hydrogen bond and electrostatic, while protein and other impurities are not adsorbed and removed. The filter membrane adsorbed with nucleic acid is washed to remove the residual protein and salt. Finally, the nucleic acid adsorbed on the filter membrane can be washed out with low salt buffer (such as buffer TE) or water. The obtained nucleic acid has high purity and can be directly used in various downstream experiments.
The sample is homogenized and lysed in the lysate, and RNA is released into the lysate. The high concentration of guanidine isothiocyanate contained in the lysate denatured and inactivated endogenous or exogenous RNase, while RNA is protected from degradation. The lysate is centrifuged to remove insoluble impurities. After adding ethanol to adjust the binding conditions, it is transferred to the column for filtration. RNA is adsorbed on the membrane of the column, while protein is removed without adsorption. The column is washed with buffer VHB to remove protein and other impurities, washed with buffer RW2 to remove salt. Finally the RNA is eluted by RNase free water. The eluted RNA can be directly used in RT-PCR, Northern blot, poly-A purification, in vitro translation, etc.

Gel images of different ranges of library size selection. Sheared human genomic DNA was used as input.
.
Library size selection is an enrichment of a specific range of library sizes for NGS library preparations. The NGS library preparation is related to the quality of the sequencing data. Precise NGS library size selection can increase sequencing efficiency, improve data quality, and reduce costs.
There are two types of sequencing technologies: short-read sequencing and long-read sequencing. Short-read sequencing uses DNA libraries that contain small insert DNA fragments of similar sizes, usually several hundred base pairs. The sequencing efficiency can be improved if the DNA size selection is in the right range. Cat.# 20104S and 20104L are the best kits for NGS library size selection of illumina paired-end 100 (PE100) sequencing with 100-200 bp library inserts; Cat.# 20105S and 20105L are the best kits for NGS library size selection of illumina paired-end 150 (PE150) sequencing with 150-300 bp library inserts; and Cat.# 20106S and 20106L are the best kits for NGS library size selection of illumina paired-end 300 (PE300) sequencing with 300-600 bp library inserts.
Long-read sequencing uses a large DNA fragment as input and makes very long reads. Usually, library size selection is preferred to remove smaller fragments. Cat.# 20110S and 20110L are the best kits for long-read sequencing size selection with DNA sizes >5 kb, and Cat.# 20111S and 20111L are the best kits for long-read sequencing size selection with DNA sizes >10 kb.
The magnetic beads, or SPRI (Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization) beads, is well used for the purification of DNA due to their reversible DNA binding. The NGS library can be size-selected by the magnetic beads or SPRI beads. The properties of the magnetic beads can be changed for a specific range of DNA binding. The contaminants and other unwanted components in the libraries can also be removed during size selection.
Specific ranges of NGS libraries can be selected using magnetic beads with different buffer compositions. The first DNA-beads binding step, also called the right-side clean-up, removes large NGS library fragments. The large NGS library fragments that bind to the beads are discarded with the beads pellet. The desired NGS library fragments in the supernatant are transferred to a new well, and new beads are added to the supernatant for the second beads-DNA binding, also called the left-side clean-up. After the rinsing step, the NGS library fragments with the dual selection are eluted in water or an appropriate buffer. The magnetic beads method has great advantages over time-consuming column purification and tedious gel-based purification.
NGS library size selection with dual clean-ups.
.
Library size selection for long-read sequencing only requires a single clean-up. In this case, only the large library fragments are bound to the beads, while other small library fragments are discarded with the supernatant. The selected larger library fragments are eluted in water or an appropriate buffer after the rinsing step.
NGS library size selection with single clean-up for >5 kb and >10 kb libraries.
