Catalog# : NB-25000
Price/Unit : $295.00
Unit : 50 preps
For the rapid isolation and purification of total RNA (including microRNA) and genomic DNA from FFPE tissue samples.
* Purify all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA)
* Preferential purification of RNA from other cellular components without the use of phenol or chloroform
* Purified RNA and genomic DNA are of the highest quality for use in numerous downstream applications
* Available in 96 well format
Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA/DNA Purification Kit provides a rapid method for the isolation and purification of total RNA (including microRNA) and genomic DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples. Alternatively, the kit can be used to isolate total RNA alone or genomic DNA alone from FFPE tissue samples through varying the protease digestion time and performing optional RNase or DNAse digestions.
Using formalin to fix tissues leads to crosslinking of the nucleic acids and proteins, and the process of embedding the tissue samples can also lead to fragmentation of the nucleic acids over time. Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA/DNA Purification Kit provides conditions that allow for the partial reversing of the formalin modifications, resulting in a high quality and yield of nucleic acids.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Bio-Synthesis's proprietary resin as the separation matrix. The process first involves deparaffinization of the FFPE samples through a series of xylene and ethanol washes. Next, the FFPE samples are digested with the provided Proteinase K and Digestion Buffer. Binding Solution and ethanol are then added to the lysate, and the solution is loaded onto a spin-column (BIND). Under these conditions only the RNA and/or DNA will bind while most of the contaminants will be removed in the flowthrough. At this point, any traces of genomic DNA can be digested allowing for pure RNA samples to be isolated. Alternatively, traces of the RNA may be digested at this point if a pure sample of genomic DNA is required instead. The bound nucleic acid is then washed (WASH) in order to remove any impurities. Lastly, the purified total nucleic acd is eluted in 50 µL of the provided Elution Buffer or water (ELUTE). Please see the procedure flowchart to the right.
This kit is also available in a 96-well format for high-throughput FFPE RNA/DNA purification. Purifictaion with the 96-well plate can be performed using either a vacuum manifold or centrifugation.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
* High quality and integrity of the isolated nucleic acid - Both the purified total RNA and/or genomic DNA are of the highest quality and integrity, and can be used in any sensitive downstream application.
* Isolate a diversity of RNA species - All RNA species can be isolated, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA and siRNA.
* High yields - Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA/DNA Purification Kit allows for the purification of high yields of total RNA or DNA.
* Rapid procedure - Isolate total RNA and/or genomic DNA from FFPE tissue sections using a rapid spin column format or a high-throughput 96-well plate format.
* Versatile procedure - The kit allows for the purification of either pure total RNA, pure genomic DNA or both RNA and genomic DNA through the use of tailored protease digestion times.
APPLICATIONS
The purified RNA and genomic DNA are of the highest available quality from FFPE samples, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including:
* qPCR
* qRT-PCR
* Reverse transcription PCR

Figure 1. High Quality and Yield of Total RNA. Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit isolates FFPE RNA that exceeds both yield and quality of competitors. Total RNA was isolated from one slice of hamster FFPE kidney section (20 micron thickness) using Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit and a leading competitor’s kit. One microliter of the 50 µL purified RNA was then resolved on an Agilent 2100 BioAnalzyer using an RNA Nano 6000 chip. As it can be seen, Bio-Synthesis's not only isolated higher yields of total RNA, but the RNA was also of a higher quality as evidenced by the higher RIN values obtained with Bio-Synthesis's RNA.
Figure 2. Higher Yield of FFPE RNA Isolated by Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit. Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit isolates FFPE RNA that exceeds the yield of competitors. Total RNA was isolated from one slice of hamster FFPE kidney section (20 micron thickness) using Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit and two leading competitor’s kits. Eighteen isolations were performed for each product. The graph demonstrates the mean yield of RNA according to spectrophotometry for 18 sample replicates. Vertical bars represent the standard deviation. Bio-Synthesis's kit consistently purified total RNA with a higher yield than for those obtained using the market competitor's kits.
Figure 3. High Yield of a Diversity of RNA Species. Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit effectively recovers all sizes of RNA from large mRNA to small RNA including microRNAs. Total RNA was isolated from one slice of hamster FFPE kidney section (20 micron thickness) using Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA Purification Kit and a leading competitor’s kit. Five microliters of the 50 µL purified RNA was then used as the template in a 20 µL reverse transcription reaction with oligo dT primer or miR-21 stem-loop reverse primer. Two microliters of the RT reaction was then used in a 15 µL qPCR reaction for detecting the beta-actin gene (Panel A) and for detecting miR-21(Panel B), respectively. In both graphs the blue lines correspond to Bio-Synthesis's isolated-RNA and the green lines correspond to competitor-isolated RNA. As it can be seen, Bio-Synthesis's kit isolated higher yields of RNA in both cases, as indicated by the lower Ct values of the blue lines. Also, Bio-Synthesis's kit successfully isolated not only large RNA (Panel A) but also microRNA (Panel B), indicating the diversity of RNA species isolated.

Figure 1. High Recoveries and Efficient Endotoxin Removal. High recoveries of DNA can be seen when using the CleanAll kit, and these high recoveries are not compromised even during endotoxin removal. In Panel A, 1 µg of a PCR product was cleaned using the CleanAll RNA/DNA Clean-Up and Concentration Kit as well as BSI's PCR Purification Kit. More than 0.9 µg of the DNA was recovered from both kits with a comparable percent recovery of over 90%. In Panel B, 10 µg of plasmid DNA preparation was cleaned from endotoxin by using the CleanAll RNA/DNA Kit. Endotoxin levels of the plasmid DNA sample were reduced from 0.75 EU/µg plasmid DNA to less 0.05 EU/µg plasmid DNA. Approximately 95% of the endotoxin units in the DNA sample were removed using the kit, therefore the kit allows for high recoveries coupled with exceptional cleanup.

EndoG Monoclonal Antibody
Catalog# : PM-4581
The fragmentation of nuclear DNA is a hallmark of apoptotic cell death. The activities of caspase and nuclease are involved in the DNA fragmentation. Caspase-activated deoxyribonuclease (CAD), also termed DNA fragmentation factor (DFF40), is one such nuclease, and is capable of inducing DNA fragmentation and chromatin condensation after cleavage by caspase-3 of its inhibitor ICAD/DFF45. Caspase and CAD independent DNA fragmentation also exists. Recent studies demonstrated that another nuclease, endonuclease G (EndoG), is specifically activated by apoptotic stimuli and is able to induce nucleosomal fragmentation of DNA independently of caspase and DFF/CAD. EndoG is a mitochondrion-specific nuclease that translocates to the nucleus and cleaves chromatin DNA during apoptosis. The homologue of mammalian EndoG is the first mitochondrial protein identified to be involved in apoptosis in C. elegans. EndoG also cleaves DNA in vitro.

DRAM Antibody
Catalog# : 4035
Damage-regulated autophagy modulator (DRAM) is a p53 target gene encoding a lysosomal protein that induces autophagy, a process that degrades cytosolic proteins and organelles. It has been suggested that activation of DRAM by p53 is simultaneous to the activation by p53 of one or more proapoptotic genes such as PUMA, Bax, etc., and that the signaling pathways regulated by these genes together promote a full cell death response. By itself, DRAM cannot induce apoptosis, but the fact that it is inactivated in certain cancers highlights the importance of DRAM and suggests that autophagy may play a more important role in cancer than initially suspected. At least two different isoforms of DRAM are known to exist.

Low Copy Plasmid DNA MiniPrep
Catalog# : NB-17800
Price/Unit : $110.00
Unit : 25 preps
For the rapid purification of low copy plasmids
* High yield of low copy plasmid DNA
* Alcohol-free protocol
* Fast and easy processing
Bio-Synthesis's Low Copy Plasmid MiniPrep Kit is designed for the rapid preparation of low copy number plasmid DNA from small batch cultures of E. coli. The kit is able to purify 0.5 - 1 µg of low copy number plasmid DNA from 3 mL of bacterial culture. Purification of plasmids up to 14,000 bp in size have been verified.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Bio-Synthesis's proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Briefly, the bacteria harbouring the plasmid is pelleted and lysed, and the released plasmid DNA is bound to Bio-Synthesis's column in the presence of Binding Solution (BIND). Under these conditions only the DNA will bind to Bio-Synthesis's resin while most of the contaminating RNA and cellular proteinaceous components are removed in the flowthrough. The bound DNA is then washed to remove any remaining impurities (WASH). Lastly, the purified DNA is eluted into 30 - 50 µL of the provided Elution Buffer or water (ELUTE). Please see procedure flowchart to the right.
The kit purifies DNA without alcohols, a significant improvement over other techniques to achieve full compatibility with alcohol-sensitive applications. The purified DNA is free of genomic DNA, RNA and cellular proteins and is suitable for many downstream applications.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS

BAC DNA MiniPrep
Catalog# : NB-18000
Price/Unit : $110.00
Unit : 25 preps
For the rapid preparation of BAC DNA
* High DNA recovery
* Alcohol-free protocol
* Convenient spin column protocol
Bio-Synthesis's BAC DNA MiniPrep Kit is designed for the rapid preparation of Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes (BACs) and other large DNA constructs from small batch cultures of Escherichia coli. The BAC DNA MiniPrep Kit typically recovers between 0.6 and 1 µg of DNA from 3 mL of bacterial culture. Purification of constructs up to 130 kbp in size have been verified.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Bio-Synthesis's proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Briefly, the bacteria harbouring the plasmid is pelleted and lysed, and the released plasmid DNA is bound to Bio-Synthesis's column in the presence of Binding Solution (BIND). Under these conditions only the DNA will bind to Bio-Synthesis's resin while most of the contaminating RNA and cellular proteinaceous components are removed in the flowthrough. The bound DNA is then washed to remove any remaining impurities (WASH). Lastly, the purified DNA is eluted into 30 - 50 µL of the provided Elution Buffer or water (ELUTE). Please see procedure flowchart to the right.
Bio-Synthesis's BAC DNA Miniprep Kit purifies DNA without alcohols, a significant improvement over other techniques to achieve full compatibility with alcohol-sensitive applications. The purified DNA is free of genomic DNA, RNA and cellular proteins and is suitable for many downstream applications.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
* High Recovery - 0.6 to 1 µg of BAC DNA can be purified from 3.0 mL of bacterial culture.
* Alcohol-free protocol - No alcohols are used durig the purification process, thus the DNA is compatible with alcohol sensitive downstream applications.
* Fast and easy processing - Rapid spin-column format allows for the processing of multiple samples in 1 hour.
* Recovered DNA is suitable for downstream applications - Purified BAC DNA is fully compatible with restriction enzyme digestions and sequencing.
* High binding capacity of columns - The binding capacity of the columns in the BAC DNA MiniPrep Kit is 25 µg
APPLICATIONS

Bio-Synthesis's Water RNA/DNA Purification Kit provides a convenient and rapid method for the detection of microorganisms from environmental water samples. The kit allows for the rapid isolation and purification of total RNA and DNA simultaneously from the microorganisms found in different types of water samples. The total RNA and DNA (including genomic DNA) are isolated from all the microorganisms found in the water, including bacteria, fungi and algae without the use of any inhibitory organic substances. The kit purifies genomic DNA, and all sizes of RNA, from large mRNA and ribosomal RNA down to microRNA (miRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA). The purified RNA and DNA are highly concentrated, and can be used directly in a number of downstream applications including real time PCR, reverse transcription PCR, Northern blotting, Southern blotting and sequencing reactions.
Purification is based on spin column chromatography using Bio-Synthesis's proprietary resin as the separation matrix. Briefly, the microorganisms present in the water sample are collected using either a 0.22 µm Filter Column or a 0.45 µm Filter Column. The captured microorganisms are then lysed using a provided Bead Tube and Lysis Solution. Next, ethanol is added to the lysate and it is loaded onto a spin column (BIND). Under these conditions only the RNA and DNA will bind to Bio-Synthesis's resin, while the proteins and other contaminants are removed in the flowthrough. Next, an optional step can be carried out in which the genomic DNA can be digested allowing for a more pure RNA sample to be isolated. Alternatively, the RNA can be digested resulting in a more pure genomic DNA sample. The bound nucleic acid is then washed to remove any impurities (WASH). Lastly, the purified RNA and/or DNA is eluted with 50 µL of the provided Elution Buffer or water (ELUTE). Please see the procedure flowchart to the right.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
* Rapid isolation of DNA/RNA from microorganisms in non-turbid water samples –Only three buffers are required to complete isolation of total DNA and RNA from all microorganisms found in water, including bacteria, fungi and algae.

DR4 Antibody
Catalog# : 1139
Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, occurs during normal cellular differentiation and development of multicellular organisms. Apoptosis is induced by certain cytokines including TNF and Fas ligand in the TNF family through their death domain containing receptors, TNFR1 and Fas. A novel death domain containing receptor was recently identified and designated DR4 (for death receptor 4). The ligand for this novel death receptor has been identified and termed TRAIL2,3, which is a new member in the TNF family. DR4 is also called TRAIL receptor-1 (TRAIL-R1). DR4 is expressed in most of human tissues including spleen, peripheral blood leukocytes, small intestine and thymus. Like TNFR1, Fas and DR3, DR4 mediates apoptosis and NF-kappaB activation in many tissues and cells.

DNase II AntibodyCatalog# : 2059Apoptosis is characterized by several morphological nuclear changes including chromatin condensation and nuclear fragmentation. These changes are triggered by the activation of members of caspase family, caspase activated DNase, and several novel proteins including AIF and Acinus . DNase II causes both chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation . The genes encoding human (2-4), porcine (4), and murine (5) DNase II have been cloned. The DNase II gene encodes a 40 kDa proenzyme. The mature enzyme consists of two non-identical subunits, the 32 kDa (a) and 12 kDa (b) chains, generated by proteolytic processing. Overexpression of DNase II induces chromatin condensation (3). DNase II is ubiquitously expressed in human tissues.Additional Names : DNase II

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Figure 1. High Quality and Yield of Total RNA. Total RNA was isolated from one slice of hamster FFPE kidney section (20 micron thickness) using Bio-Synthesis's FFPE RNA/DNA Purification Kit and a leading competitor’s kit. One microliter of the 50 µL purified RNA was then resolved on an Agilent 2100 BioAnalzyer using an RNA Nano 6000 chip. As it can be seen, Bio-Synthesis's not only isolated higher yields of total RNA, but the RNA was also of a higher quality as evidenced by the higher RIN values obtained with Bio-Synthesis's RNA.
