1X High Sensitivity dsDNA Quantification Kit, 500 assays
Cat. No.: BM-F1000-HS1-500
Description
The Accuris dsDNA HS Quantitation Kit provides a simple, sensitive and accurate quantitation for dsDNA. This convenient 1X version of the standard Accuris dsDNA HS Quantitation Kit includes a pre-mixed fluorescent working solution to save on pipetting steps and to ensure consistent results.
This kit includes a ready-to-use assay working solution and dsDNA standards, ensuring both convenience and reliability. Engineered for high selectivity, the kit detects dsDNA concentrations ranging from 0.2 to 100 ng, offering exceptional stability, a broader linear range, and enhanced sensitivity compared to conventional DNA quantification kits.
The assay is performed at room temperature—simply mix the sample with the reagent and measure DNA concentration using a fluorometer or a plate reader (please contact us for further details on plate reader compatibility). Additionally, the kit demonstrates high tolerance to common contaminants, including proteins, salts, solvents, and detergents, ensuring accurate and consistent results across various sample conditions.

Critical Assay Parameters:
Incubation Time: For optimal detection of target molecules, incubate the standards and samples with the Accuris 1X HS dsDNA working solution for 2-3 minutes in the dark at room temperature.
Fluorometer Calibration: Users can either use a previous calibration or perform a new calibration. We recommend running a new calibration for each assay.
Assay Temperature: The Accuris 1X HS dsDNA Quantification Kit performs optimally at room temperature. Therefore, all reagents must be equilibrated to room temperature before use.
Assay Selectivity: The Accuris 1X HS dsDNA Quantification Kit is tolerant to common contaminants such as proteins, salts, solvents, and detergents.

Standards and Sample Preparation:
This protocol provides instructions on how to use the Accuris 1X HS dsDNA Quantification kit with the Accuris Smart Q and Qubit Fluorometers.
1. Allow all components of the Accuris 1X HS dsDNA quantification kit to reach room temperature.
2. Prepare the required number of assay tubes accounting for the two standards (Use only thin-wall , clear 0.5 mL PCR tubes).
3. Label the tubes on the lid.
4. Add 190 μL of the Accuris 1x HS dsDNA working solution to each standard tube and 180-199 μL to sample tubes dpendent on on the volume of unknown sample (according to the figure on the opposite side of this page).
5. Add 10 μL of dsDNA Standard 1 and Standard 2 and unknown samples to corresponding tubes (according to the figure below).
6. Mix samples by vortexing tubes for 3 seconds and incubate all tubes at toom temperature for 1-3 minutes, thereafter.

Standards and Sample Measurements
Standard Curve:
1. On the Home screen, select dsDNA, then choose dsDNA: High Sensitivity.
2. Insert standard 1 into a reading chamber and select start symbol followed by pressing the read symbol.
3. After selecting concentration units, choose Read Standards.
4. Replace standard tube 1 with standard 2 and select Read standards to obtain reading for the second standard.
5. Select Save to save the standard curve. Note: this curve may be re-used for subsequent sample readings. We recommend to prepare new standard curve each time assay is performed.
Sample Quantification:
1. On the fluorometer screen, enter the volume of the unknown sample, then select the Start icon.
2. Once the fluorometer completes the quantification, the sample concentration and Relative Fluorescence Units (RFU) will be displayed on the screen.
3. Remove the sample, insert the next sample into the test chamber, and select the Start icon.
4. Repeat Step 3 until all samples have been quantified. Note: At any point during quantification, the fluorometer screen can be swiped left to display all recorded concentrations from the current experiment, with options to print or export the results. Selecting the Calculator function allows users to calculate the molarity of the sample (note: the DNA length must be entered for accurate quantification).
5. After completing the quantification process, turn off the fluorometer.

The Accuris™ Smart-Q™ 100 & Smart-Q™ 800 Fluorometers are designed for the precise quantification of DNA, RNA, and protein samples. By utilizing well-established methodologies for fluorescence detection, the Smart-Q Fluorometers provide higher specificity and enhanced accuracy compared to the traditional method of UV-absorbance detection. Accurate results are particularly crucial in workflows involving:
ssDNA Quantification KitThe Accuris ssDNA Kit provides a simple and accurate method for quantifying single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) or oligonucleotides. The assay kit is accurate at detecting ssDNA between 0.05-200 ng/µL. While the kit is not selective for ssDNA over double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) or RNA, it does not detect contaminating proteins or nucleotides. Additionally, the kit demonstrates insensitivity to low concentrations of common contaminants such as proteins, salts, solvents, and detergents RNA High Sensitivity Quantification KitThe Accuris RNA High Sensitivity Quantification Kit offers a reliable and accurate method for measuring RNA concentration. This assay is highly selective for RNA over double-stranded and single-stranded DNA and can detect RNA concentrations ranging from 0.1 ng/μL to 100 ng/μL RNA Broad Range Quantification KitThe Accuris RNA Broad Range Quantification Kit enables precise and reliable RNA quantification. This assay exhibits high specificity for RNA over single stranded and double-stranded DNA, allowing for the detection of RNA concentrations ranging from 1 ng/μL to 1000 ng/μL. This assay demonstrates robustness against common contaminants, including proteins, free nucleotides, salts, solvents, and detergents |
