Broad Range dsDNA Quantification Kit, 100 assays - for Accuris™ Smart-Q™ Fluorometer



Cat. No.:BM-F1000-BR-100



Description

The Accuris BR dsDNA Quantitation Kit provides easy and accurate quantitation for dsDNA. The kit includes concentrated assay reagent, dilution buffer, and prediluted DNA standards. The assay kit is highly selective for dsDNA due to fluorescence dye high quantum yield and large molar extinction coefficient.

The kit is highly reliable in detecting dsDNA with initial sample concentrations from 0.2ng/μL to 2000 ng/μL ranging from 4.0 to 2000 ng. The kit offers advantages in stability, linear dynamic range, and sensitivity over other traditional of DNA quantitation. The assay is performed at room temperature.

The reagent is diluted using the buffer provided, added your sample (any volume between 1 μL and 20 μL is acceptable), and the fluorescence is read using a fluorometer.

General Protocol

  Preparation


1. Warm the Accuris Broad Range dsDNA Quantitation Kit to room temperature. Check the BR dsDNA reagent for any precipitation. If precipitation is seen, warm up the vial in a water bath and vortex until dissolved.

2. Prepare 1× BR dsDNA Buffer by diluting the 10× BR dsDNA Buffer 1:9 in deionized water.

3. Prepare the working solution by diluting the BR dsDNA reagent 1:199 in 1× BR dsDNA buffer. Use a clean plastic tube each time to make working solution. For example, to measure 8 samples in duplicate, add 10 μL of BR dsDNA reagent to 1990 μL of BR dsDNA Buffer. Mix well and use IMMEDIATELY. Once mixed into the working solution, samples must be measured within 3 hours to prevent degradation of fluorescence intensity.


   Standard Curve

1. Add 190 μL of the working solution to each assay tube. (Note: Use only clear 0.5 mL PCR tubes for fluorescence analysis.

2. Add 10 μL of dsDNA standard #1 (Component 3), dsDNA standard #2 (Component 4) into separated tubes, and mix by vortexing (5-10 seconds), and incubate all tubes at room temperature for 3 minutes in the dark. Note: When mixing dsDNA standard and working solution, please disperse the bubbles before analysis.

3. Measure the fluorescence using the calibration program of standard curve. Click dsDNA in the Home interface, select “dsDNA: Broad Range” and press the button. Select “Calibration” from the pop-up box. Standard 1 should be set by default as having 0 concentration. Insert standard 1 into the fluorometer port and click “Read standards” to perform the measurement. Once finished, proceed to set up and measure standard 2. After calibration, samples are ready to be measured.


  Measuring Samples

1. Add the sample (any volume between 1 μL and 20 μL is acceptable) and the working solution, and the final volume ineach tube should be 200 μL.

2. Mix by vortexing (5-10 seconds). Incubate all tubes at room temperature for 3 minutes in the dark. Note: When mixing dsDNA standard and working solution, please disperse the bubbles before analysis.

3. Place the sample into the fluorometer for measurement.

Description

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:

  • Next Generation Sequencing
  • PCR
  • Transfection
  • Western blotting
  • Immunoassays


The Smart-Q Fluorometers are engineered to achieve optimal performance with Accuris’ Fluorescent DNA Quantification Kits and assay tubes; however, they also maintain compatibility with a range of kits offered by various other suppliers.


Intuitive Usability

Each instrument is equipped with a 7-inch color touchscreen, featuring an intuitive, icon-driven user interface. Preprogrammed protocols allow for quick & effortless assay set-up. Results are quickly calculated and displayed in less than 6 seconds, and saved to the instrument’s internal memory. All data can be also be exported easily to a PC using a USB flash drive.


Accurate Quantification

The Smart-Q Fluorometers, along with their accompanying assay kits, are engineered for the precise measurement of fluorescent dye signals that are bound to targeted biological molecules. These specially formulated dyes exhibit selective affinity towards DNA, RNA, or proteins, and generate fluorescent signals exclusively upon binding to their respective targets. Both Smart-Q models include Blue and Red channels that allow for various fluorescent dyes to be used in nucleic acid and protein measurements.

The Smart-Q Fluorometers incorporate advanced curve-fitting algorithms to establish calibration curves from standard samples of known concentrations.

The concentration of an unknown sample, whether it be DNA, RNA, or protein, is determined by correlating its Relative Fluorescence Units (RFUs) with those of the standards employed during calibration. The measurement sensitivity for each type of assay is distinct and defined by its detection limits.


Options for Throughput

The Smart-Q portfolio includes two distinct models, each designed to meet specific laboratory requirements:

The Smart-Q 100 allows for single-sample processing in 0.5mL assay tubes (NS1020-T).  This renders the Smart-Q 100 ideal for laboratories processing fewer samples.

The Smart-Q 800 caters to high-throughput workflows and allows for up to eight samples to be evaluated at once using individual 0.2mL tubes or  8 x 0.2mL strips tubes (Order no. F1001-T and F1001-T-8, ). The use of a standard 8-channel pipettor can streamline both the reagent preparation and sample transfer, making the Smart-Q 800 an efficient solution for workflows requiring parallel processing of multiple samples.


Accuris DNA Quantification Kits

Accuris DNA Quantification Kits are designed for accurate fluorescent quantification of dsDNA using an instrument such as the SmartDrop XF, Qubit™or Accuris™ Fluorometer. The reagents are highly selective for double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), and not for single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), RNA, protein, or nucleotides.  Included with each kit are a concentrated assay reagent, dilution buffer, and ready-to-use DNA standards.  The assay reagent is diluted using the buffer provided, the sample is added (1 µL to 20 µL of sample is needed), and the concentration can be determined using an appropriate fluorometer instrument.

High Sensitivity dsDNA Assay Kit
The Accuris High Sensitivity kit provides an accurate method for the quantitation of dsDNA samples when sensitivity is required.  Depending on sample volume, the assay kit is designed to be accurate for initial DNA sample concentrations of 0.005 to 120 ng/µL, providing a detection range of 0.1−120 ng.  0.1 to 100 ng/ul, providing detection of 0.1 to 100 ng

Broad Range dsDNA Assay Kit
The Accuris Broad Range kit provides an accurate method for quantitation of dsDNA samples for a broad range quantity of DNA. Depending on sample volume, the assay kit is designed to be accurate for initial DNA sample concentrations of 0.2 to 2,000 ng/µL, providing a detection range of 4−2,000 ng.

ssDNA Quantification Kit

The 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 Kit

The 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 Kit

The 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
