Solid Phase Adsorption Toxin Tracking (SPATT) is a biomimetic in-situ water monitoring tool that falls under an expanding umbrella of passive samplers. It serves to warn researchers of toxin-producing harmful algal bloom (HAB) developments early on. It has been popularized through its affordability, ease of use, and its ability to capture ephemeral events in marine, brackish, and freshwater environments. Its uptake of contaminants has been shown to be more similar than other sampling methods to that of aquatic species like bivalves, mussels, and clams. It provides an average bioavailable fraction of a toxin over deployment time that can be used to determine an overall toxin risk to organisms. The sampling period typically depends on the bioactivity at a site, ranging from 24 hours to 4 weeks in most cases.
A SPATT passively absorbs and desorbs extracellular compounds over its stretch of time at a sampling site; in an organism, a toxin would go through biochemical detoxification processes. Passive samplers have a higher sensitivity for more compounds and provide improved stability and preservation of these compounds within the resin. SPATT devices capture less commonly detected cyanotoxins (e.g. cylindrospermopsin) at lower concentrations than that of a grab sample (collected at one point in time). Grab samples are limited in scope and sensitivity, and underrepresent toxins like microcystin-LR, which is picked up very reliably through SPATT technology.
Uses HP20 that is widely applicable for many toxins.
Used to capture:
Cyanotoxin (e.g. microcystin and cylindrospermopsin)
Saxitoxin & derivatives (GNTXs, C-toxins), and other paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs)
Okadaic acid (OA) & derivative Dinophysistoxins (DTXs) and other Diarrheic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins
Yessotoxin (YTX) and Pectenotoxins (PTXs)
Cyclic imines (CIs), e.g. Spirolides (SPXs), Gymnodimines (GYMs), Pinnatoxins (PnTXs)
Ciguatoxin (CTX) & precursor Gambiertoxin (GTX), Maitotoxin (MTx), and other ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) toxins

Introduction
Blood samples contain rich DNA, including mitochondrial DNA, genomic DNA, circulating DNA (mostly released into blood after tumor cell apoptosis) in white blood cells, as well as parasitic viral or microbial DNA. These DNA are important parameters in clinical testing or diagnosis, which are also valuable materials for medical research. There are three main issues with extracting DNA from blood samples:
1. The sample is highly infectious, posing great harm to operators and the environment.
2. The source of DNA is complex and aportion of the nucleic acid, such as viral DNA or free DNA, may be lost during the operation, leading to downstream detection failure;
3. Blood sample contains a large amount of impurities and inhibitory factors.
Currently there are many methods available for extracting DNA from whole blood samples, such as phenol chloroform extraction, salting out method, etc. However, these methods require pre-treatment of blood sample, which removes red blood cells and isolate white blood cells in the first step. Due to the requirement that it cannot inactivate or kill pathogens during the process of removing red blood cells, the waste liquid (red blood cell lysate) and consumables may be contaminated by pathogens and become infectious, posing a danger to the entire laboratory environment and operators. In addition, during the process of removing red blood cells, useful nucleic acid information such as viruses, microorganisms, or circulating DNA is also lost, leading to experiment or detection failures.
The HiPure Blood DNA Kits series provided by Magen Company uses silica gel column purification technology, which can directly lyse whole blood samples without the need for white blood cell separation. Whole blood samples are directly mixed with lysates and proteases, resulting in the inactivation of pathogens, greatly reducing the infectivity, environmental pollution, and the chance of operators being infected. Due to the direct lysis and digestion of samples, except lymphocyte DNA, other circulating DNA as well as DNA from viruses and microorganisms, can also be recovered.
This product provides fast and easy methods for purification of total DNA for reliable PCR and Southern blotting. Total DNA (e.g., genomic, viral, mitochondrial) can be purified from tissue, whole blood, plasma, serum, buffy coat, bone marrow, other body fluids, lymphocytes, cultured cells.

Principle
This product is based on silica column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mm Tris, pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).
Advantages
High quality DNA – meet a variety of downstream applications, including PCR, qPCR, enzyme digestion, hybridization, etc.
High throughput – 96 samples can be processed simultaneously

Storage and Stability
Proteinase K should be stored at 2-8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 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 at least 18 months under these conditions.
