First strand cdna synthesis kit

Manufactured by Sinaclon

The First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit is a laboratory tool designed for the reverse transcription of RNA into complementary DNA (cDNA). It provides the necessary reagents and enzymes required to generate first-strand cDNA from various RNA templates, which can then be used for downstream applications such as PCR, RT-PCR, and gene expression analysis.

Total RNA was extracted from the BNYVV-infected plants using RNX-Plus kit (Sinaclon, Tehran, Iran) followed by DNase treatment. cDNA was synthesized using first strand cDNA synthesis kit (Sinaclon, Tehran, Iran). RT-PCR reaction was done by the first cycle at 93 °C for 6 min, being followed by 35 cycles at 93 °C for 30 sec, 65 °C for 45 sec, 72 °C for 1 min and a last cycle at 72 °C for 10 min. Then, the PCR products were visualized by agarose gel electrophoresis.

Viral RNA Extraction and cDNA Synthesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
According to the manufacturer's instructions, viral RNA was extracted from all samples using the RNX-PLUS kit (Sinaclon, Iran). In brief, 1 ml of RNX-PLUS solution and 200 μl of chloroform were added to the tube containing the sample. Then, the mixture was centrifuged at 12000g at 4°C for 15 min. Next, the aqueous phase was transferred to a new tube, and an equal volume of isopropanol was added. The supernatant was discarded after centrifugation, and 1 ml of 75% ethanol was added to the mixture. Afterward, the supernatant was removed, and the sediment was dried at room temperature. The concentration of the RNAs extracted was measured using a spectrophotometer. Following this, complementary DNA (cDNA) synthesis was performed using SinaClon first-strand cDNA synthesis kit according to manufacturer's instructions.

Curcumin (1,7-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione) was purchased from Santa Cruz (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA). MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetra-zolium bromide, a yellow tetrazole], DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide), RNase, and propidium iodide were obtained from Sigma (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA). Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM), fetal bovine serum (FBS), and trypsin/EDTA were purchased from Gibco (Pittsburgh, PA, USA). RNX-Plus Solution and the First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit were purchased from Sinaclon (Sinaclon, Tehran, Iran). Finally, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) was provided by EBEWE PHARMA (EBEWE Pharma, Unterach, Austria).

Quantifying miRNA-601 and PD-L1 Levels

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RNA from the samples was extracted using a First Strand cDNA Synthesis kit (SinaClon Co.,
Iran) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Real-time PCR was performed for
miRNA-601 and PD-L1, as the targets, and β-actin, as the
reference gene. Table 1 lists the primers used for these genes.
A total volume of the 20 µl PCR reaction, which included 4 µl distilled water, 10 µl
master mix, 4 µl cDNA, and 1 µl primers was used. The amplification program was designed
according to the appropriate annealing temperature: 1 cycle at 95°C for 60 seconds,
followed by 35 cycles of denaturation at 95°C for 30 seconds, annealing at 61°C for 40
seconds, and 72°C for 45 seconds. Expression of the target miRNA-601 was
normalized by miRNA REST software. No miRNA was used as the negative control and all tests
were performed in triplicate.

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.
