This kit provides a rapid spin column method for the isolation and purification of genomic DNA from both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria in milk samples. It can also be used to process challenging milk samples such as Mastitic milk for example. The kit is highly sensitive and can isolate DNA from a cell density of as little as 10 bacteria contained in 1 mL of milk. Genomic DNA is isolated in 45 minutes, free of inhibitors and ready for any number of downstream applications including PCR, qPCR and Southern Blot analysis, sequencing and more.

This kit is designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from various tissue samples, cultured cells, viruses, bodily fluids and swabs using a rapid spin column protocol. Purified DNA is of an excellent yield and quality, and is immediately ready for any downstream application including PCR, qPCR, genotyping, sequencing and more. The protocol can be completed in approximately 80 minutes (including incubation time).

This kit provides everything required to isolate and purify inclusion body proteins from induced bacterial cultures. First a proprietary Cell Lysis Reagent is used to selectively lyse the cells and release inclusion bodies in their solid form. Next, inclusion bodies are dissolved and their contents released using the provided IB Solubilization Reagent. Inclusion body proteins are then further purified using spin columns for rapid and convenient buffer exchange and desalting. This kit provides a convenient way to screen recombinants prior to scaling up.

Bacillus cereus is a rod-shaped, gram-positive bacterium. Some strains of B. cereus cause foodpoisoning and other diseases such as keratitis. B. cereus grows at a wide range of temperature, from 4°C to 37°C. In fact, many foodborne illnesses caused by B. cereus are a consequence of improperly cooked or improperly stored food, including dairy products and meats. The majority of food poisoning by B. cereus could be divided into two types of symptoms – the emetic type and the diarrheal type, both of which are caused by the enterotoxin produced by the bacteria.

The Plasma/Serum Exosome Purification Kits provide a fast, reliable and convenient method to purify and enrich for pure intact exosomes from different plasma/serum sample volumes ranging from 50 µL to 10 mL. These kits also allow for the purification of intact extracellular vesicles (EVs) from different plasma/serum sample volumes, and these EVs are ready for any downstream application. The purification is based on Norgen’s proprietary resin.
