Qubit dsdna quantification assay kits

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

The Qubit™ dsDNA Quantification Assay Kits are designed for the accurate quantification of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) samples. The kits use a sensitive fluorescent dye that binds specifically to dsDNA, allowing for precise DNA concentration measurements.

Genomic DNA Extraction and Amplicon Sequencing

Genomic DNA (gDNA) was extracted using the Mag-Bind® Blood & Tissue DNA HDQ 96 Kit (Omega Bio-tek) and quantified by the Qubit™ dsDNA Quantification Assay Kits (ThermoFisher). Illumina-compatible guide array amplicons were generated by amplification of the gDNA in a one-step PCR. Indexed PCR primers were synthesized by Integrated DNA Technologies using the standard 8nt indexes from Illumina (D501-D508 and D701-D712). The sequences for the primer sets were listed in Supplementary Data 10.
At least ~200X coverage gDNA per replicate across multiple reactions were amplified. Each gDNA sample was first divided into multiple 100 μL reactions with most 10 μg gDNA per reaction. Each reaction contained 0.5 μL forward primer (100 μM), 10uL reverse primer (5 uM) 8 μL dNTPs, 5 μL DMSO, 10 μL 10X Titanium Taq Buffer, and 1.5 μL Titanium Taq DNA Polymerase (Takara). The PCR conditions were: An initial denaturation at 95 °C for 60 s, followed by 28 cycles of 30 s at 94 °C, 30 s at 52 °C, and 30 s at 72  °C followed by a final extension at 72 °C for 10 min. After the PCR, all reactions from the same sample were pooled and purified with Agencourt AMPure XP SPRI beads according to the manufacturer protocol (Beckman Coulter). Purified amplicons were quantified by Qubit™ dsDNA Quantification Assay Kits (ThermoFisher) and sequenced on a HiSeq2500 with a Rapid Run (200 cycle) kit (Illumina).

Metagenomic Sequencing of AS Specimens

DNA from AS specimens was extracted using the NucliSENS easyMAG (BioMerieux, France). Metagenomic libraries were prepared utilizing the TruePrep DNA Library Prep Kit V2 for Illumina (Vazyme, China) following the manufacturer’s protocol. The purification step employed Agencourt AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter, USA), and quantification was carried out using Qubit dsDNA Quantification Assay Kits and the Qubit 4.0 Fluorometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). Sequencing took place on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform in paired-end mode with 2 × 150–base pair (bp) reads (six-gigabyte data per sample). To mitigate the impact of laboratory-derived contaminants, we incorporated 17 NCs during processing, which included 15 DNA extraction controls and 2 DNA library no-template controls.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
