The ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase is a mixture of an aptamer-based inhibitor and a recombinant thermo-stable Taq DNA polymerase designed for preventing or minimizing non-specific DNA amplification in PCR reaction. The inactivation of polymerase is achieved by a reversible binding of the aptamer to the polymerase at temperatures below 45°C. The aptamer inhibitor releases polymerase during normal PCR cycling. The aptamer-based inhibition omits the time-consuming initial activation step required by chemically modified or antibody-based hot start polymerases.
The high specificity and sensitivity of ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase allows sensitive detection from limited amount of DNA templates, such as 1 pg of cDNA or 1 fg of plasmid DNA. With a high DNA synthesis rate and high thermo-stability, the ExcelTaq™ Hot Start II DNA Polymerase allows reactions to be set up at room temperature and is suitable for common and specialized PCR applications

Overview
Fast, reproducible and easy processing of samples
High yield and high quality genomic DNA with no RNA or protein contamination
DNA ready for any application including PCR, qPCR, genotyping and more
Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kits are designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from cultured cells as well as various tissue samples and urine. The purified genomic DNA is fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested, and is completely compatible with PCR and Southern Blot analysis.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Spin Column)
Purification is based on spin column chromatography as the separation matrix. Norgen’s columns bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. The protocol can be completed in approximately 30 minutes for cells and within 90 minutes for tissues. Each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Micro Kit (Micro)
Optimized for small inputs of cells and tissues, such as Laser-Captured Microdissection (LCM). Purification is based on spin column chromatography as the separation matrix. Norgen’s columns bind DNA under optimized salt concentrations and release the bound DNA under low salt and slightly alkali conditions. Preparation time for a single sample is approximately 60 minutes, and each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System)
Purification is based on the use of magnetic beads that bind DNA under optimized binding conditions. Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic Bead System) allows for the isolation of genomic DNA from various types of animal tissues or cell samples. Preparation for 10 purifications is approximately 40 minutes of hands-on time.
Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (High Throughput Magnetic Bead System)
Purification is based on the use of magnetic beads that bind DNA under optimized binding conditions. Norgen’s Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) allows for the isolation of genomic DNA from various types of animal tissues or cell samples. The Cells and Tissue DNA Isolation 96-Well Kit (Magnetic Bead System) also can be integrated with a robotic automation system.

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.
