NOVABEADS FOOD 1 DNA KIT

NOVABEADS FOOD 1 DNA KIT NOVABEADS FOOD DNA KIT is the new generation tool in molecular biology techniques and allows DNA isolations from highly processed food products. The method is based on the use of fully synthetic, composite magnetic bed selectively binding nucleic acids. Specially formulated binding, washing and elution buffers allow you to get very high quality and purity DNA. An isolated DNA not fragmented during the purification process. Lack of inhibitors of subsequent reactions allows the direct use of purified nucleic acids in other molecular biology techniques, such as: PCR reaction DNA sequencing (automatic and manual) dephosphorylation phosphorylation ligation investigation of DNA-proteins interaction restriction enzymes digestion. Unlike standard beds used for isolation and purification of DNA, magnetic particles enable full automation of this process. Three modifications of the standard protocol for isolation of DNA from highly processed plant origin food are presented below. Protocols have been modified for the following products: different types of flour corn gluten ketchup.

Leave the test tube with the magnetic particles at room temperature. Before adding once again vortex thoroughly the contents of the tube. When washing ketchup in a Neutralization Buffer and grinding in a mortar, there should be visible a clearly orange and light purple dye on the walls of the mortar. After each washing centrifuge the mixture in the same tubes. Since DNA binding to the magnetic particles (from step 11), after successive washings, the magnetic particles in PreWash Buffer, Wash Buffer and 70% isopropanol, do not vortex tubes!

For this purpose, to each tube containing the pellet, add 1 ml of Neutralization Buffer and vortex the tube contents thoroughly. The whole (4 tubes) returned to the mortar and rub. 3. After the last washing with Neutralization Buffer extend the centrifugation to 10 min. The STEP II - Lysis supernatant remove carefully. The pellets leave in the tubes. 4. To each of four tubes with pellets add 500 µl of Lysis Buffer. Thoroughly vortex the mixture and transfer to a clean mortar. 5. The mixture rub for about 5 minutes.

Leave test tubes for approximately 5 min at room temperature to evaporate residual ethanol. 21. Dissolve the obtained precipitate by vortexing in 50 µl of TE buffer. The obtained DNA can be used directly for PCR.

In order to avoid evaporation and crystallization reagents, we recommend securing parafilm bottles of buffers after each isolation. Storage conditions: + 4 C Lot nr Exp. date NOTE! Certain components of buffers can act strongly irritating. When working with all chemicals must comply with health and safety regulations.
