Screening of saxitoxin in Freshwater Streams and Source Water samples as low as 70 ppt
Saxitoxins (STXs) are naturally occurring alkaloids produced by some marine dinoflagellates and by strains of various species of freshwater cyanobacteria. Saxitoxin is one of the prevalent paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs). It belongs to a family of potent neurotoxins with a molecular weight around 300 Da. Saxitoxin and its derivatives are alkaloids composed of a tetrahydropurine ring system with a highly polar guanidinium group. Due to their significant toxicity, saxitoxins are closely monitored in marine environments where they can accumulate during harmful algal blooms (HABs). In 2009 an action level of 0.6ppb (600ppt) was recommended by EFSA as a guidance framework have been established to manage saxitoxin levels in water.
Tau proteins are abundant in neurons of the central nervous system, and function in microtubule stability and organization. Defects in Tau functioning and aggregation of these proteins have been clinically linked to a number of neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Pick’s disease (PiD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), cortical basal degeneration (CBD), and frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17).
Isolate high quality DNA from a broad variety of phage strains
High yields of total DNA
Fast and easy processing using a rapid spin-column format
No phenol or chloroform extractions or cesium chloride banding required
High yields of DNA recovered3-15 µg DNA from 106-1010 pfu/ mL of enriched phages
This kit provides a rapid spin column method for the purification of total DNA from a broad spectrum of bacteriophages propagated in bacteria grown in liquid cultures. The DNA is isolated without the use of phenol, chloroform or cesium chloride banding procedures. The spin-column based procedure is rapid and can be completed in less than 45 minutes. The kit is highly efficient for processing small volumes of phage supernatant (500 µL – 1 mL) and with the optional DNase and Proteinase K treatments phage DNA yields are maximized while host DNA contamination is minimized. Purified total phage DNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including PCR, qPCR, Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP), sequencing, cloning, Southern Blot and more.
3-15 µg DNA from 106-1010 pfu/mL of enriched phages
Time to Complete 10 Purifications
45 minutes
* Average yields will vary depending upon a number conditions used and developmental stage.
Storage Conditions and Product Stability All solutions should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 1 year after the date of shipment.
Biotin-PEG12-DBCO is a biotinylating reagent comprised of DBCO, a click chemistry handle that is frequently used to conjugate with azides on target molecules, and biotin, which is useful for affinity-based applications such as pull-down assays or for ligating with streptavidin proteins. The PEG12 imparts the hydrophilicity of the compound. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.
