Product catalog summary
Introduction
The μCaler Respiratory Pathogen Solution is a comprehensive system that combines RNA & DNA Library Co-Preparation Kit, μCaler Hybrid System, and XCapViz Bioinformatics Analysis Visual System. It is designed for multiplex detection and precise identification of respiratory pathogens, aiding in rapid diagnosis and epidemiological surveillance.
Specifications
The NadPrep RNA & DNA Library Co-Preparation Module is compatible with high-throughput sequencing platforms like Illumina and MGI. It efficiently converts RNA samples to dsDNA and supports mixed samples with 10-100 ng of RNA and 1-100 ng of DNA.
Kit Content
The kit includes essential components such as Co-Random Primer, Co-Strand Synthesis Buffers, Co-FERA Buffer and Enzyme, Ligation Buffer, DNA Ligase, and 2X HiFi PCR Master Mix. Storage conditions range from -25 ~ -15°C to 2 ~ 8°C.
Procedures
  • Pre-library Preparation: Steps include RNA Degeneration, Strand Synthesis, Fragmentation/End Repair & A-tailing, Adapter Ligation, and Cleanup.
  • Hybridization Capture: Involves hybridization reaction, capture and elution, post-capture PCR, and library purification and quantification.
Reagent Handling and Environment
Maintain a temperature of 20-25°C and humidity of 40-60%. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of reagents. Ensure RNase-free conditions and use personal protective equipment.
Recommendations
Separate laboratory spaces for different steps to prevent cross-contamination. Use RNase-free consumables and frequently replace gloves. Mix reagents thoroughly and maintain proper temperature conditions during reactions.
Equipment and Reagents
Essential equipment includes Qubit 3.0 Fluorometer, Agilent Bioanalyzer systems, and thermal cyclers. Reagents include absolute ethanol, TE solution, purification beads, and nuclease-free water, with alternatives recommended.
Sample Preparation Protocol
Details steps for pre-library preparation, including RNA degeneration, strand synthesis, fragmentation, end repair, and A-tailing, with specific volumes and incubation conditions.
Library Preparation
Describes adapter ligation, post-ligation cleanup, pre-library amplification, and post-amplification cleanup, emphasizing correct volumes and temperatures.
Hybridization Capture
Provides detailed instructions for hybridization reactions, using streptavidin beads for capture and elution, with emphasis on temperature control and careful handling.
Post-capture PCR Procedure
  • Prepare NadPrep 2X HiFi PCR Master Mix and Amplification Primer Mix on ice.
  • Set up amplification reactions following a specific thermal cycling protocol.
  • Use a magnet stand for bead separation and resuspension in nuclease-free water.
  • Optional: Transfer resuspended beads to enhance specificity.
  • Store captured libraries at 2-8°C overnight if needed.
Purification and Quantification of Library
  • Vortex NadPrep SP Beads and equilibrate to room temperature.
  • Add beads to PCR tube, incubate, and use a magnet stand for separation and ethanol wash.
  • Dry beads, resuspend in TE solution, and transfer supernatant to a new tube.
  • Quantify library using a fluorescence-based method.
  • Store purified library at 2-8°C for a week or -25 to -15°C for longer periods.
Optional Protocols
  • Library Concentration: Use a vacuum concentrator or additional beads for concentrating libraries.
  • Ensure all consumables are RNase-free to prevent contamination.
Appendices
  • Appendix 1: Optional library concentration methods.
  • Appendix 2: FAQs and solutions for common issues like low yield.
  • Appendix 3: Index sequences for NadPrep Universal UDI-Index Primer Mix.
Important Notes
  • Optimize PCR cycles based on library input and use Qubit for quantification.
  • Ensure ethanol is freshly prepared for purification steps.
  • Handle magnetic beads carefully to avoid loss during purification.

• Physically separate the laboratory space and establish an operating area for RNA handling, with disinfecting regularly. All the equipment and consumables are dedicated. • Gently pipet RNA rather than thoroughly vortex. • Place the RNA specimens on ice and operate immediately once outside the freezer to avoid degradation. • Make sure to proceed the experiment from RNA handling to 2nd strand synthesis by using RNase-free consumables and reagents. Gloves are essential around all steps. Replace new gloves once contacting the equipment or space out of the RNase-free area. • The personal protective...
