Introduction

HiPure FFPE Nucleic acid Kit supplies a simple and rapid DNA extraction for Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue and sections samples. This kit is based on silica gel column purification technology, no phenol-chloroform extraction or alcohol precipitation. The whole extraction only takes 20 minutes (not including digestion time). DNA can be directly used for downstream applications such as PCR, southern blot and viral DNA detection, etc.

Principle

Hipure FFPE Nuclear acid kit adopts silica gel column purification. The sample is deparaffinated by xylene and digested by lysate and protease. After decrosslinked at 90 ℃, DNA/RNA is released into the lysate. Adding ethanol to adjust the binding conditions, the sample is transferred to the column where DNA/RNA is adsorbed on the membrane and protein is removed without adsorption. Protein and other impurities are washed by buffer GW1, and the salt is removed by buffer GW2. Finally, the DNA / RNA is eluted by low salt buffer.

Advantages

• Safety – deparaffinating without contacting with xylene or other toxic solution
• Fast – without overnight incubation and digestion, several samples can be extracted within 2hours
• High efficiency – remove the formaldehyde modification of DNA, greatly enhancing the sensitivity of PCR
• High yield – most optimal process to ensure the highest recovery
• High recovery – silica gel column purification method can recover nucleic acid at the level of PG

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. 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.

Description 

Q-PAGE™ TGN (Tris-Glycine Novel) Precast Gels are ready-to-use acrylamide gels for SDS-PAGE running in Tris-Glycine buffer system. With unique formula, Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels perform enhanced speed, better separation, and longer shelf life as compared with conventional Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. The protein migration patterns in Q-PAGE™ TGN series, however, are similar with typical Laemmli Tris-HCl gels, and thus Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are compatible to traditional SDS-PAGE and subsequent analyses. 

Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 15%) and fixed (10%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 12- and 15-well formats. Two available cassette sizes, Mini (10 x 8.3 cm) and Midi (10 x 10 cm), are compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems. Q-PAGE™ Mini (QP4XXX) Gels are suitable for Bio-Rad® and other systems. Q-PAGE™ Midi (QP5XXX) Gels are suitable for Invitrogen® XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell, Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank, Hoefer SE260, and other systems. 

Key Features

• User-friendly gel cassette:
  • Numbered and framed wells for sample loading
  • Labeled warning sign and green tape as reminder
• Enhanced gel performance: 
  • Enhanced gel electrophoresis speed 
  • Better band separation, equivalent to commercially 4-20% TG gels  
  • Stable for shipping at ambient temperature
• Easy compatibility: 
  • Available as homogeneous and adjusted gradient gels for a wide range of protein separation.
  • Compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems 

Storage and stability

Store Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels at 4°C for periods up to 12 months.

Do not freeze Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels. Remove tape and comb before electrophoresis. 

Keep Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels flat during storage.

Overview

• Ensure the stability and viability of viruses, chlamydia, and mycoplasma.
• Manufactured based on CDC formula.
• Antimicrobic blend suppresses bacterial and fungal contamination.
• Supplied in bulk (1 Litre) to provide options for custom applications.
• Preserve swab samples for up to 48h when preserved at 2–8°C.

Norgen’s Viral Transport Medium is formulated to transport samples that are presumably infected with a virus. Viral Transport Medium is manufactured based on CDC formula and is offered in bulk to provide an option to readily assemble swab collection devices for sample collection.

Norgen’s Viral Transport Medium (VTM) is designed for safe and efficient transport of viral samples, including but not limited to those from nasal, throat, and other swabs. The VTM contains a balanced mix of Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS), heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS), gentamicin sulfate, and amphotericin B to preserve the viability of viruses and prevent the growth of contaminating bacteria and fungi. The medium ensures the stability and viability of viruses, chlamydia, and mycoplasma for analysis using different techniques. In addition, the Viral Transport Medium eliminates the need to immediately process or freeze samples.
