Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit (Magnetic Beads)

The Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit (Magnetic Beads) was developed for the bacterial genomic DNA extraction from bacterial cultures directly using magnetic beads from a wide variety of gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial species, as well as yeast and other fungi. With our proprietary magnetic beads technology, the kit eliminates the tedious centrifuge steps for columns. The kit provides a reliable and simple approach for high-quality bacterial DNA isolation with fast magnetic response time and high binding capacity.

Bacteria are the most diverse and abundant small single-celled organisms and are vital to the planet’s ecosystems. Some bacterial species are pathogens that can cause a variety of diseases to humans and animals. Besides their ecological and biomedical importance, bacteria are also used in biotech and pharmaceutical applications such as production of enzymes, DNA preparation, biofuels, food research, and chemical production.

Bacterial cells are grown to log-phase and the culture is lysed directly with a lysis buffer, then mixed with beads to bind genomic DNA. After wash steps, genomic DNA is eluted in Low TE or TE Buffer. The isolated genomic DNA with the magnetic beads is free of contamination such as RNA, proteins, salts, and other impurities. Bacterial DNA extracted using the kit is suitable for downstream applications such as qPCR, PCR, DNA sequencing, Southern Blotting, molecular cloning, DNA hybridization, restriction enzymatic digestion, and Next-generation Sequencing (NGS) etc.

Features

• 100% centrifuge-free
  • Bacterial cultures can be used directly without centrifuge to pellet the bacteria
• Simple magnetic beads method
  • No centrifuge needed
  • No column needed
  • No vacuum needed

Purified genomic DNA from various bacteria were isolated with the Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit. A portion of the extracted genomic DNA was loaded on a 1% agarose gel. DNA ladder: BioDynami 1 kb Plus DNA Ladder (Cat.# 10005L).

Overview

• Detection kits for Malaria
• Available in TaqMan format for analysis

Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease and considered one of the leading causes of death in the world. Malaria is a fatal tropical disease that is caused by a parasite knows as Plasmodium. It is usually spread through the bite of an infected female mosquito. 300-500 million new infected cases are estimated every year with 1.5-2.7 million deaths worldwide. Most of the malaria-related deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. . Although blood is the sample most frequently used to make a diagnosis, both saliva and urine have been investigated as alternative, less invasive specimens

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.

All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.

Introduction

This kit is used for extracting total viral nucleic acid from non-cell/low cell content biological samples such as body fluid, serum, plasma, urine, immersion solution, tissue homogenate supernatant, culture supernatant, etc., the extracted products can be used for clinical in vitro detection.

Specifications

Principle

This product is based on silica gel purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA / RNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption plate and filter column. DNA/RNA is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, DNA / RNA was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10 Mm Tris, pH 8.0).

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 20 minutes by column method
• High quality – high purity total RNA can be directly used in various sensitive downstream applications
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required
• Sensitive – DNA/RNA can be recovered at the level of PG
• High yield – carrier RNA contained in the product maximize the recovery of trace nucleic acid

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (Proteinase K up to 8 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for 18 months under these conditions.
