Nucleic Acid (DNA/RNA) Extraction Kit
1. Introduction Nucleic Acid Extraction Reagent Kit,Nucleic Acid Extraction Kit,Covid-19 Nucleic Acid Extraction Reagents,Nucleic Acid Test Kits Jilin Sinoscience Technology Co. LTD , https://www.jlgkscience.com
The total viral nucleic acid extraction kit is suitable for extracting total viral nucleic acid from serum, plasma, tissue homogenate and other samples. The kit is based on silica column purification technology, which eliminates the need for toxic phenol-chloroform extraction and time-consuming alcohol precipitation. This product has successfully extracted nucleic acids from hepatitis B A/C, hepatitis C, and norovirus standard. The obtained DNA/RNA can be directly used in a series of downstream experiments such as PCR, RT-PCR, and LAMP.
Notice:
1. The carrier RNA solid must be dissolved in Nuclease Free Water to 1µg/µl before use, and vortex to dissolve. Store in aliquots at -70°C. If you need to store it at -20℃ for a long time, please repackage it according to the number of times of use.
2. Dissolve Proteinase K (20mg/ml): Add Proteinase Dissolve Buffer to dissolve Proteinase K to a final concentration of 20mg/ml. Proteinase K dry powder can be stored at 2-8°C for one year, but dissolved Proteinase K must be stored in aliquots at -20°C. Repeated freezing and thawing of Proteinase K can affect its activity.
3. Buffer VHB must be diluted with 14 ml absolute ethanol before use and stored at room temperature.
4. Buffer RW2 must be diluted with 80 ml of absolute ethanol before use and stored at room temperature.
3. Shelf life
Except for Proteinase K and Carrier RNA, other components of this product can be stored at room temperature (15-25°C) for 12 months, and should be stored at 2-8°C for long-term storage. Proteinase K and Carrier RNA dry powder are transported at room temperature. Please store at -20°C after receiving the test product, and store at -20°C after dissolving.
How The New Post-Pandemic CDC Recommendations Will Impact Infection Control Strategies
As of May 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) Emergency Committee on the COVID-19 Pandemic suggested it was time to shift gears and treat the virus as an endemic disease rather than an ongoing crisis. Many countries had already begun this transition earlier in 2023, adopting long-term health management strategies instead of emergency protocols. In the United States, the Department of Health and Human Services officially ended the federal Public Health Emergency (PHE) for COVID-19 on May 11, 2023. Although the virus remains active, significant progress has been made in managing severe cases and reducing mortality rates thanks to widespread vaccination efforts and prior infections.
Since the PHE ended, several key changes have taken place in how healthcare facilities approach infection control. One major adjustment involves the discontinuation of national, county-level COVID-19 infection data collection by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This move means that healthcare providers must rely more heavily on localized data sources to guide their decisions regarding mask mandates and testing procedures. Facilities like nursing homes are encouraged to monitor regional trends using tools such as hospital admission rates, flu-like illness surveillance networks, and broader respiratory virus tracking systems provided by the CDC.
Despite these shifts, standard infection prevention practices remain consistent across all healthcare environments. The CDC continues to emphasize the importance of risk assessment and proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE), but there are new recommendations inspired by lessons learned during the pandemic. For instance, visitors to healthcare settings suspected of having respiratory illnesses may be asked to wear masks to minimize cross-contamination risks. Additionally, given experiences from last winter's "tripledemic"—where COVID-19 coincided with flu and RSV outbreaks—healthcare organizations might consider reapplying universal masking policies during peak respiratory seasons.
In terms of product solutions, maintaining robust supplies of high-quality medical gloves remains crucial for effective infection control programs. Brands like Ventyv®, offered by Sri Trang USA, provide reliable options ranging from examination gloves to surgical and chemotherapy-resistant varieties. Ensuring access to such resources helps protect both staff and patients alike.
