Spin column-based nucleic acid purification. Silica in a spin column with water and with DNA sample in chaotropic buffer. Spin column-based nucleic acid purification is a solid phase extraction method to quickly purify nucleic acids. This method relies on the fact that nucleic acid will bind to the solid phase of silica under certain conditions.
DNA extraction. The first isolation of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was done in 1869 by Friedrich Miescher. [1] DNA extraction is the process of isolating DNA from the cells of an organism isolated from a sample, typically a biological sample such as blood, saliva, or tissue. It involves breaking open the cells, removing proteins and other ...
QIAGEN N.V. is a German-founded multinational provider of sample and assay technologies for molecular diagnostics, applied testing, academic research, and pharmaceutical research. The company operates in more than 35 offices in over 25 countries. QIAGEN N.V., the global corporate headquarter of the QIAGEN group, is located in Venlo, The ...
His-tag. A simple gravity flow column for Ni 2+ - affinity chromatography. The sample and subsequent buffers are manually poured into the column and collected at the bottom end after flowing through the resin bed (in light blue at the base of the column). A polyhistidine-tag, best known by the trademarked name His-tag, is an amino acid motif in ...
Plasmid miniprep. 0.8% agarose gel ethidium bromide -stained. A plasmid preparation is a method of DNA extraction and purification for plasmid DNA. It is an important step in many molecular biology experiments and is essential for the successful use of plasmids in research and biotechnology. [1][2] Many methods have been developed to purify ...
The PPARGC1A gene regulates genes involved in energy metabolism. [1] [2] Since type 2 diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia as a result of impaired pancreatic beta cell function [3] and insulin resistance in peripheral tissues, [4] it was thought that the gene might be downregulated in type 2 diabetes patients through DNA methylation.
Method. The Qubit fluorometer method is to use fluorescent dyes to determine the concentration of either nucleic acids or proteins in a sample. Specialized fluorescent dyes bind specifically to the substances of interest. A spectrophotometer is used in this method to measure the natural absorbance of light at 260 nm (for DNA and RNA) or 280 nm ...
Glulisine is rapid acting insulin analog from Sanofi-Aventis, approved for use with a regular syringe, in an insulin pump. Standard syringe delivery is also an option. It is sold under the name Apidra. The FDA-approved label states that it differs from regular human insulin by its rapid onset and shorter duration of action.
