Quantitative end-point RT-PCR gene expression measurement using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer and standardized RT-PCR (5988-3674EN)
This application note describes how the Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer can be used in combination with Standardized RT (StaRT)-PCR reagents from Gene Express National Enterprises (G.E.N.E.), Inc. (Huntsville, AL, USA) to obtain highly reproducible, standardized gene expression measurement with RT-PCR. The internal standards used in StaRT-PCR control for variable loading of PCR products into electroph...
متن کاملDeoxyuridine Triphosphate (dUTP)-Dependent Sizing Variance of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Products on the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer System
To avoid false positive Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) detection, caused by cross-contamination with amplicons from earlier experiments, deoxyuridine triphosphate (dUTP) is commonly used as a substitute for deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) in PCR mastermixes. This allows the performance of a decontamination step prior to PCR amplifi cation. Analysis of PCR products on the Agilent 2100 Bioana...
متن کاملImproving sample quality for target enrichment and next-gen sequencing with the Agilent High Sensitivity DNA Kit and the Agilent SureSelect Target Enrichment Platform
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized the genetic landscape. It is a lengthy, labor-intensive process that yields results never before achieved. As a result, it is imperative that the quality of the DNA sample be evaluated from the start, as most NGS sample preparation protocols require PCR amplification to generate DNA libraries prior to sequencing. The likelihood of artifact gen...
متن کاملDetection of DNA mutations associated with mitochondrial diseases by Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer.
BACKGROUND Molecular analysis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has provided a final diagnosis for many of the mitochondrial diseases. We evaluated the Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA) to determine whether the system could replace the conventional restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis by the agarose gel electrophoresis for the detection of the mtDNA m...
متن کاملAnalysis of small RNAs with the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer
Isolation of pure and intact RNA is essential, but the concentration and integrity of total RNA preparations is affected by the purification process used. Applications for which RNA will ultimately be used may include reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR, preparations of targets for microarrays, ribonuclease protection assays, preparations of cDNA libraries and northern blotting. Recently, the import...
