To generate crude DNA for a PCR template, we used the approach of Sakorai et al. with some modifications.Citation 27 Briefly, 0.1 ml of KSOM medium containing 1 blastocyst was transferred with a glass micropipette to the bottom of a 0.2 ml PCR tube (Thermo Scientific, USA) under a stereomicroscope, and blastocyst lysis buffer [125 µg/ml proteinase K, 100 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.3), 100 mM KCl, 0.02% gelatin, 0.45% Tween 20, and 60 µg/ml yeast tRNA (Ambion, USA)] was prepared. Lysis buffer (10 µl) was added to each tube. In the PCR machine (ABI GeneAmp PCR System 9700, Japan), each PCR tube was incubated at 55 °C for 60 min and then at 99 °C for 30 min. The crude DNA was kept at -20 °C until ready to use.
To obtain amplifications for blastocyst genotyping, two PCR cycles were performed. The first round of PCR was performed in a 20 µl volume comprising 10 µl of Prime STAR Max DNA Polymerase (Takara, Japan), 0.5 M forward and reverse primers, and 5 µl of crude DNA solution. After the first round of reaction, 2 µl of the sample was added to the second round of PCR mixture, which comprised 10 µl of Prime STAR Max DNA Polymerase (Takara, Japan) and 0.5 M forward and reverse primers to form a total volume of 20 µl. Using the same protocol as the previous round of PCR, amplification was carried out for 40 cycles. The sequences of the PCR primers are listed in Supplementary Table 2.

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.
