Sample type purification kit guide 

The 16S V2-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina consists of the reagents and components required for library preparation of the 16S V2-V3 amplicon libraries to be used for next-generation sequencing on Illumina platforms. All molecular reagents including primers, enzyme mixes, indexes, and buffers are provided. Instructions for PCR clean up with the AMPure XP Magnetic Beads (supplied by customer) are also included for rapid purification of nucleic acid products generated at two steps of the workflow. The library prep workflow could be used for purified DNA inputs from different sources including stool, soil, water, saliva, plant, urine, skin swab, vaginal swab, cheek swab, nasal swab, plasma/serum, tongue swab, gum swab, and others.

The 16S V2-V3 Library Preparation Kit for Illumina has a streamlined procedure that reduces the handling time such that the library prep procedure can be completed in approximately 4 hours (see diagram below). Input DNA is first subjected to targeted PCR to amplify the V2-V3 region of the DNA encoding 16S rRNA. The post-PCR reaction is then cleaned up using AMPure XP beads. Dual index primers are then added using a limited-cycle PCR. The indexed amplicons flanked by 5′ and 3′ barcoded adaptors are then cleaned using AMPure XP beads. The libraries are then ready for quantification, pooling and sequencing.

Introduction

This Kit is designed to purify genomic DNA and total RNA simultaneously from a single biological sample. Lysate is first passed through a DNA spin column to selectively isolate DNA and then through an RNA column to selectively isolate RNA. Pure DNA and RNA are purified from the entire sample, in contrast to other procedures where either the biological sample or the purified total nucleic acids is divided into two before being processed separately. The kit is compatible with small amounts of a wide range of animal cells and tissues.

Principle

The Kits are designed to purify both genomic DNA and total RNA from the same cellor tissue sample. Samples are first lysed and homogenized. The lysate is passed through a DNA Mini column and bind DNA. Ethanol is added to the flow-through and the sample is applied to an RNA column. DNA/RNA binds to the membrane and contaminants are washed away. High-quality RNA is eluted in as little as 30µl water using the Kit. High-quality DNA is eluted in as little as 50µl water using the Kit.

Advantages

• High quality – high purity total RNA / DNA can be directly used in a variety of downstream applications
• Fast – column method can complete the extraction of several samples in 30 minutes
• Safe – no phenol chloroform extraction required
• Simultaneous extraction- simultaneously isolate DNA and RNA from one sample

DBCO-PEG8-NHS Ester is a click chemistry molecule cosisting of an NHS ester that is reactive specifically and efficiently with primary amines (e.g. the side chain of lysine residues or aminosilane-coated surfaces) at neutral or slightly basic condition to form a covalent bond. PEG8 spacer arm improves water solubility and provides a long and flexible connection that minimizes steric hindrance involved with ligation. DBCO is commonly used for copper-free Click Chemistry reactions. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
