Overview

• Rapid isolation of both small and large species of DNA from urine
• Convenient spin column format
• Effective removal of PCR inhibitors
• Purified DNA is highly suited to sensitive downstream applications
• Allows for the purification of viral DNA from urine

Both high molecular weight DNA (greater than 1 kb in size; mostly cell associated) and the smaller DNA (150 – 250 bp; derived from the circulation) is effectively isolated and purified using a rapid and convenient spin column protocol. This kit can be used to isolate DNA from a broad range of viruses in urine as well. Salts, metabolic wastes, proteins and other contaminants are removed to yield inhibitor-free DNA for use in sensitive applications. The DNA is of excellent quality for various downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR and DNA fingerprinting, methylation studies and more.

This kit is fully compatible with Norgen’s Urine Collection and Preservation Tubes.

Urine DNA Isolation Kit

This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 50 μL to 1.75 mL of urine. Multiple samples can be processed in 30 minutes.

Urine DNA Isolation Kit (Slurry Format)

This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 3 mL to 25 mL. Multiple samples can be processed in 30 minutes. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes.

Urine DNA Isolation Maxi Kit (Slurry Format)

This kit provides a fast, reliable and simple procedure for isolating DNA from urine volumes ranging from 25 mL of urine up to 80 mL. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes.

Background

DNA found in urine can be divided into 2 basic categories. The larger species, genomic-DNA (gDNA), is generally greater than 1 kb in size, and appears to be derived mainly from exfoliated cells. The second species is smaller, generally between 150 and 250 bp (apoptotic-DNA), and derives, at least in part, from the circulation. The second species is also considered as an RNA/DNA hybrid as reported by Halicka et al. (2000). Both types of DNA can be isolated reliably using this kit.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All buffers should be kept tightly sealed and stored at room temperature. This kit is stable for 2 years after the date of shipment. The kit contains a ready-to-use Proteinase K, which is dissolved in a specially prepared storage buffer. The buffered Proteinase K is stable for up to 2 years after the date of shipment when stored at room temperature.

Biotin-PEG3-alkyne is a biotin PEG reagent with an alkyne group that enables click reaction with azido molecules in the presence of Cu catalyst. The hydrophilic PEG spacer arm imparts water solubility that is transferred to the biotinylated molecule.

Introduction

This product uses an improved salt precipitation purification method to provide a safe and economical solution for High Weight genomic DNA extraction from blood samples, tissue samples, cultured cells, oral swabs, bacteria, and other samples. The extraction does not require the use of toxic phenol chloroform or any expensive reagents, making it the most economical reagent kit for nucleic acid extraction at present. This kit has no limit onthe amount of sample used and can flexibly adjust various amounts of samples. The obtained DNA can be directly used for experiments such as PCR, enzyme digestion, Southern hybridization, and the Third-generation sequencing.

Principles

SolPure DNA Kits is an improved salt precipitation purification method. (Blood samples are lysed in red blood cell lysis buffer to remove red blood cells, and white blood cells are collected by centrifugation.) After lysis, DNA is released into the lysis buffer. RNA is removed by RNASE A. High salt solution is added to precipitate proteins and impurities. Centrifuge to remove precipitate and obtain supernatant containing only DNA. Add isopropanol to precipitate and recover DNA. Wash with 70% ethanol to remove salt, and finally add Buffer TE to dissolve DNA.

Storage and Stability

RNase A and Proteinase K should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 4 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect its performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least18 months under these conditions. The entire kit can be stored at 2–8°C, but in this case buffers should be redissolved before use. Make sure that all buffers are at room temperature when used.
