Cell2Seq – 16S rRNA Microbial Identification Kit

£225.00

Description

Part of the ‘Free From’ Microzone range, the Cell2Seq – 16S rRNA Microbial Identification Kit is a cell-to-sequence solution designed to streamline and simplify the 16S Sanger sequencing workflow.

This innovative kit provides all the necessary components for the three critical steps for sample preparation for sequencing: microbial lysis, high-fidelity PCR amplification, and post-PCR clean-up. Microbial lysis is achieved with microLYSIS Plus, a reagent formulated for efficient microbial lysis and high-quality DNA extraction through a rapid thermal lysis protocol.

The whole process takes place in a single tube and does not involve the use of solvents or other harmful chemicals usually required in traditional DNA extraction methods. High-fidelity PCR amplification is performed using the 2X MegaMix Crystal Q5 High Fidelity Mastermix, which consists of Q5 DNA Polymerase in an enhanced buffer with optimal Mg2+ concentration, balanced dNTPs, and a proprietary formulation of stabilizers and enhancers specifically optimized for our enzyme. Q5 High Fidelity DNA Polymerase offers unmatched accuracy with a 280-fold higher fidelity compared to Taq Polymerase and a 5-fold higher fidelity compared to standard Pfu Polymerase. This enzyme features a Hot-Start mechanism for increased specificity and sensitivity, allowing for room temperature reaction setup. Post-PCR clean-up utilizes microCLEAN reagent, which requires less than 15 minutes to efficiently remove unwanted residual dNTPs, primer-dimers, enzymes, and unincorporated dyes from PCR products while maximizing amplicon recovery for high-quality sequencing.

It is a quick and simple protocol with minimal requirements for equipment and plasticware, significantly reducing the environmental impact of the process.

  • Successful amplification from bacterial lysates in microLYSIS Plus and no sample loss after PCR clean-up step using Cell2Seq – 16S rRNA Microbial Identification Kit. V3-V4 regions of 16S rRNA gene amplified with 2X MegaMix Crystal Q5 HiFi MasterMix: before (-) or after PCR clean-up with microCLEAN (+). Solid arrows show the presence of PCR residues; Dashed arrows show removal of PCR residues after microCLEAN PCR clean-up. M = 100 bp DNA

  • Excellent quality metrics obtained from 16S sequencing using Cell2Seq – 16S rRNA Microbial Identification Kit. Different bacteria species prepared in microLYSIS Plus using either a bacterial colony or broth (OD of 0.1 or OD 1), 16S amplification was performed with MegaMix Crystal Q5 High-Fidelity MasterMix and PCR clean-up was achieved with microCLEAN. Graphs show the contiguous read length (A), and Quality Score (B) obtained from Sanger sequencing.
