General description

The REDExtract-N-Amp Tissue PCR Kit contains all the reagents needed to rapidly extract and amplify genomic DNA from mouse tails and other animal tissues, buccal swabs, hair shafts, and saliva. There is no need for mechanical disruption, organic extraction, column purification, or precipitation of the DNA. The kit includes a PCR ReadyMix, specially formulated for direct PCR amplification from the extract. This formulation uses an antibody-based hot start, for specific amplification. The REDExtract-N-Amp Tissue PCR Kit contains a tracking dye that allows for convenient direct loading of PCR reactions onto agarose gels for analysis.

Application

REDExtract-N-Amp tissue PCR kit has been for:
  • DNA extraction
  • genotyping
  • polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

Features and Benefits

  • Perfect for quick genomic DNA isolation for genotyping
  • Single-step extraction of genomic DNA for PCR in 15 minutes
  • PCR ReadyMix, specially formulated for amplification directly from extract
  • Hot Start antibody for highly specific PCR amplification of genomic DNA
  • Extract stable at 4oC for at least 6 months
  • REDExtract-N-Amp contains a tracking dye for convenient and direct loading of PCR reactions onto agarose gels for analysis

Components

Kits contain Tissue Preparation Solution, Extraction Solution, and REDExtract-N-Amp PCR Reaction Mix.

Other Notes

The REDExtract-N-Amp Tissue PCR Kits provide all the reagents necessary to rapidly extract DNA from a wide variety of cells and tissues and amplify targets of interest by PCR. A novel extraction method eliminates the need for long enzymatic digestions or homogenization. The kit also includes a specially formulated hot start PCR reaction mix for amplification directly from the extract. The REDExtract-N-Amp PCR ReadyMix contains an inert dye that acts as a tracking dye and allows for convenient loading of PCR reactions onto agarose gels for analysis.

Principle

The kit comes with validated protocols to extract and amplify genomic DNA from mouse-tails, hair, animal tissue, saliva, and buccal swabs. In a typical procedure, genomic DNA is extracted from a sample that has been incubated in the tissue preparation solution and extraction solution for 10 minutes at room temperature. The sample is heated to 95 °C for 3 minutes and then mixed with a third solution to neutralize inhibitory substances prior to PCR. A portion of the DNA extract is then added to a PCR reaction containing primers and REDExtract-N-Amp PCR ReadyMix, included in the kit.

Estrogens act upon estrogen receptor (ER)α to inhibit feeding and improve glucose homeostasis in female animals. However, the intracellular signals that mediate these estrogenic actions remain unknown. Here, we report that anorexigenic effects of estrogens are blunted in female mice

Articles

Standard methods for extracting DNA from tissues can be extremely laborious and time consuming. Certain applications, such as genotyping of transgenic mice using a section of tail, employ a lengthy DNA extraction process.
