Optimized PCR and Microfluidics Setup

For PCR experiments,
we used KOD XL polymerase purchased from Merck Millipore (Madrid,
Spain), synthetic oligonucleotides obtained from Biomers (Ulm, Germany),
natural dNTPs from ThermoFischer Scientific (Barcelona, Spain), and dAEFcTP synthesized following
the Sonogashira reaction.16 (link) For qPCR experiments,
we used the PowerUp SYBRGreen master mix from Applied Biosystems.
For agarose gel electrophoresis, we employed certified molecular
biology agarose gel powder from ThemoFischer Scientific (Barcelona,
Spain), GelRed Nucleic Acid Gel Stain from Biotium (Barcelona, Spain),
Tris-borate-EDTA (TBE) buffer prepared in house (10.8 g of TRIS-base,
5.5 g of boric acid, and 4 mL of ETDA 0.5 M per liter of solution),
and the DNA gene ruler low range DNA Ladder from Thermo Scientific.
To fabricate the electrode array and microfluidics, we used soda-lime
glass slides from Sigma-Aldrich (Spain), three-millimeter thick polymethylmethacrylate
(PMMA) from La Indústria de la Goma (Tarragona, Spain), and
double-sided adhesive gasket ARSeal 90880 from Adhesive Research (Ireland).
All other chemicals were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich S.A. (Barcelona,
Spain) and used as received.
We used DNA free water provided
by Fisher Bioreagents to prepare
PCR solutions and high purity deionized water (18 MΩ) produced
with a Milli-Q RG system (Millipore Ibérica, Spain) for all
other solutions.

Synthesis and Characterization of Oligonucleotides

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All synthetic oligonucleotides have been purchased by Biomers (Germany), purified employing standard HPLC protocols and checked for their integrity by MALDI mass spectrometry. In particular, the following DNA sequences have been used for the experiments: two different truncations of human telomeric DNA sequence, namely 5′-TAGGGTTAGGGTTAGGGTTAGGG-3′ (tel23) and 5′-TTAGGGTTAGGGTTAGGGTTAGGGTT-3′ (tel26); two sequences from the promoter region of the c-kit oncogene, namely 5′-AGGGAGGGCGCTGGGAGGAGGG-3′ (ckit1) and 5′-CGGGCGGGCGCGAGGGAGGGG-3′ (ckit2); the self-complementary duplex-forming Dickerson dodecamer 5′-CGCGAATTCGCG-3′ (ds12).

Electrochemical Detection of Toxic Dinoflagellate

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
KOD XL polymerase was purchased
from Merck Millipore (Madrid, Spain), synthetic oligonucleotides were
obtained from Biomers (Ulm, Germany) (Table 1), natural dNTPs were purchased from Thermo
Fisher Scientific (Barcelona, Spain), and DNA free water was provided
by Fisher Bioreagents. dAEFcTP was synthesized and characterized
following the Sonogashira reaction, as previously described.13 (link)Electrode
arrays were fabricated using soda-lime glass slides from
Sigma-Aldrich (Spain), 3 mm thick poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA)
from La Indústria de la Goma (Tarragona, Spain), and a double-adhesive
gasket ARSeal 90880 from Adhesive Research (Ireland).
All other
reagents were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich S.A. (Barcelona,
Spain) and used as received. High-purity deionized water (18 MΩ
cm–1) produced with a Milli-Q RG system (Millipore
Ibérica, Spain) was used throughout. As a model system, amplification
and detection of the toxic dinoflagellate K. armiger was used.

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.
