Description
Q-PAGE™ TGN (Tris-Glycine Novel) Precast Gels are ready-to-use acrylamide gels for SDS-PAGE running in Tris-Glycine buffer system. With unique formula, Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels perform enhanced speed, better separation, and longer shelf life as compared with conventional Laemmli Tris-HCl gels. The protein migration patterns in Q-PAGE™ TGN series, however, are similar with typical Laemmli Tris-HCl gels, and thus Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are compatible to traditional SDS-PAGE and subsequent analyses.
Q-PAGE™ TGN Precast Gels are available in gradient (4 to 15%) and fixed (10%) concentrations of polyacrylamide in 12- and 15-well formats. Two available cassette sizes, Mini (10 x 8.3 cm) and Midi (10 x 10 cm), are compatible with most popular protein electrophoresis systems. Q-PAGE™ Mini (QP4XXX) Gels are suitable for Bio-Rad® and other systems. Q-PAGE™ Midi (QP5XXX) Gels are suitable for Invitrogen® XCell SureLock® Mini-Cell, Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank, Hoefer SE260, and other systems.

Setting up gel/membrane sandwich for Western transfer
Recommendations/Tips for Gel Running
1. Remove comb and tape before adaption. 2. Use fresh 1X running buffer for the inner cathode chamber. 3. Rinse the wells before sample loading. 4. Try 200 V first, and optimize the voltage and running time if needed. Do not set voltage lower than 100 V.
Sample Preparation for SDS-PAGE
1. Mix protein sample with 2X sample buffer.
2. Heat the diluted samples at 95°C for 5 min or at 70°C for 10 min.
3. Cool the diluted samples to 4°C and spin down the water condensed on tube surface. (If there is high viscosity part at bottom of tube, transfer supernatant to a new tube.)
Prepare Q-PAGE™ for Sample Loading
1.Open the blister tray of Q-PAGE™ Precast Gel.
2.Briefly rinse the gel cassette with ddH2O.
3.Remove tape and comb; avoid squeezing the gel.
4.Adapt Q-PAGE™ to electrophoresis system; instruction are provided below. (Invitrogen® Mini Gel Tank is recommended.)
5.Use a pipette to gently wash the wells with running buffer to remove residual storage buffer.
6.Fill the wells with running buffer prior to sample loading.
7.Load samples and pre-stained protein marker into numbered wells.
8.Fill both inner and outer chambers with running buffer to the highest level. Ensure gel wells are completely covered.

Remove Q-PAGE™ Gel from Cassette
Open cassette immediately after electrophoresis. Avoid gel drying.
1.Insert the cassette opener into corners of cassette.
2.Sequentially pry the opener to separate the two plates.
3.Gently pull up notched plate and let gel stay on the front plate.
4.Use cassette opener to push through the slot in the cassette.
5.Carefully detach the gel from the bottom of gel.
- Avoid diagonally peeling the gel from the corner.
- If necessary, cut well separators with gel remover.
6.Gently remove the gel for further staining or Western blotting.
Gel Staining
Proteins separated using Q-PAGE™ Precast Gels can be further stained with most popular staining reagents, such as Coomassie dyes (R-250 or G-250), Silver-stain solution,
and FluoroStain™ Protein Fluorescent Staining Dye. (Cat. No. PS1000)
Transferring Protein from Q-PAGE™ to Blotting Membrane
1. After protein separation using Q-PAGE™, gently detach QPAGE™ from cassette and then equilibrate the gel in transfer buffer.
2. Pre-soak blotting membrane and filter papers in transfer buffer.
*Activate PVDF membrane in methanol before soaking in transfer buffer.
**Prepare 6 filter papers for one gel/membrane sandwich.
3. Assemble transfer sandwich by orientating cathode, sponge, filter papers, gel, membrane, filter papers, sponge, and anode. The protein goes to the direction of cathode to anode.
4. Carefully move roller over the gel/membrane to remove air bubbles and excess buffer until complete contact is established.
5. Insert transfer cassette into transfer module. Notice that black side of cassette should be next to black side of module.
6. Fill transfer tank with pre-cooled transfer buffer to the highest water level.
7. Set constant voltage at 100 V. Transfer for 90 minutes at low temperature condition. Pre-stained protein marker should be visible on the membrane after transfer is completed.
Transfer of proteins to the membrane can be checked using Ponceau S staining before blocking step.

Troubleshooting Guidelines | ||
Problem | Possible Cause | Suggested Solution |
Well deformation | Pull one side of comb out of cassette. | Smoothly pull the comb straight out of the cassette. |
Bubbles between gel and cassette | Gel has been frozen or stored at wrong temperature. | Store Q-PAGE Precast Gels at 4°C. |
Buffer leaking from the inner chamber | Untight assembly of gels to the electrode modules | Reassemble Q-PAGE gels into the electrodemodules. Fill outer chamber with 1X running buffer to thehighest level. |
Samples do not sink into the wells. | Residual gel storage buffer in the wells | Rinse the gel wells with ddH2O or 1X running bufferbefore loading. |
Insufficient sample buffer | Use more sample buffer to prepare samples. | |
Current is zero and sample do not migrate into gel | Tape at bottom of gel not removed | Remove tape |
Gels run faster or more slowly than expected. | Incorrect running buffer | Check buffer composition. Use fresh 1X running buffer for inner chamber. |
Crooked bands at middle or bottom of gel | Gel has been frozen or stored at wrong temperature. | Store Q-PAGE Precast Gels at 4°C. |
Incorrect running buffer | Check buffer composition. Use fresh 1X running buffer for inner chamber. | |
Band pattern curves toward one or both sides of gel. | Buffer leaking from the inner chamber | Check assembly of gels into the electrode modules. |
Excessive heating of gel | Check buffer composition. Or dilute running bufferto 0.5-0.75X. Do not exceed recommended running conditions. | |
Insufficient buffer in inner or outer buffer chamber | Fill inner and outer chambers to completely covergel wells. | |
Poor resolution or fuzzy bands | Excessive heating of gel | Check buffer composition. Do not exceed recommended running conditions. |
Incorrect running buffer | Check buffer composition. | |
Bands are missing on the membrane after Westerntransferring. | Proteins move in the wrong direction | Check the order of gel/membrane sandwich assembly,the direction of transfer cassette in transfer modules, and the polarity ofconnections to power supply. |
Swirls or missing bands; bands trail off in multipledirections on the membrane after Western transferring. | Contact between the membrane and the gel was poor;Air bubbles or excess buffer remains between the blotting membrane andthe gel. | Use thicker/more filter paper in the gel/membranesandwich Remove air bubbles and excess buffer betweengel and membrane by carefully moving the roller over the membrane. |
Apparent molecular sizes of prestained proteinmarkers are different as indicated. | Prestained protein markers used have not beencalibrated for use with Q-PAGE gels. Dyes for staining protein markers affect themigration patterns of prestained proteins in different buffer systems. | Calibrate prestained protein markers againstunstained proteins of known size or use SMOBIO’s ExcelBand™ Protein Markers. |

—DNA转染试剂Polyjet-适用于普遍的哺乳动物细胞
LipoD293-适用于悬浮细胞的转染(包括昆虫细胞SF9)-对于普遍的哺乳动物细胞具有更优异的转染效率
—DNAandsiRNA转染试剂
Lipojet-适用于大多数哺乳动物细胞的转染-低毒性(无需换液)-用量少-DNA/RNA共转染(co-transfection)-效果优于Lipofectamine2000
—siRNA转染试剂
GenMute-适用于大多数哺乳动物细胞转染-低毒性(无需换液)-用量少-DNA/siRNA共转染(co-transfection)PepMute-适用于普遍的哺乳动物细胞的转染
而且直接使用自制的PEI非常便宜,在293上远比商品化的脂质体要好。
另外,如果你们实验室确实钱多,不怕花钱,建议你取用Promega的FugenHD,那个转染效率比脂质体更好,而且毒性小,至于价格。。。。。。。。。。。也更高。。。。。。。。。
另外,你说漂浮的细胞有表到GFP,那个不一定是真的GFP,很多时候
当然,如果考虑成本这块的话,义翘sinofection可以考虑哦~
有战友对比过罗氏X-tremeGENEDNATransfectionReagent和lipofectamine3000的优劣吗?求解答
近期,上海公卫临床研究中心的一位研究生应用两种转染试剂Turbofecttransfectionreagent(Thermo)和EntransterTM-R4000(Engreen)进行了一次RNA转染比较。比较情况如下:
实验方法
转染试剂:Turbofecttransfectionreagent(Thermo)和EntransterTM-R4000(EngreenBiosystemCo,Ltd)
待处理细胞:humanCD8+T细胞
1.针对Turbofect转染的方法

讨论:从实验结果来看,英格恩生物公司(EngreenBiosystem)的EntranstenTM-R4000(ago/NC:422912倍)转染试剂的效果优于Turbofect转染试剂(ago/NC:285870倍)。EntransterTM-R4000是英格恩生物(EngreenBiosystem)最新研发合成的针对siRNA、microRNA、mimic、inhibitor、mRNA和shRNA等RNA的转染试剂。EntransterTM-R4000不仅可以转染小RNA,而且针对mRNA等长链RNA优化。该试剂可将RNA导入多种细胞系,包括原代细胞和悬浮细胞。无论有无血清、抗生素存在均可获得很高的转染效率。
如题,PolyplusTransfection转染试剂在中国区的代理商有哪些?求推荐1-2个靠谱的,谢谢!
DXY721认为:
悬浮细胞和贴壁细胞在转染过程中差别不大,主要差别在于转染后的筛选,当然如果你做的是瞬时转染就不存在筛选的问题了。
其实转染的过程很简单,问题是能不能转的进去的,转染率能有多少,转进去是否可以稳定表达目的蛋白等等。
我们也是用脂质体做悬浮细胞的转染,说明书上都有具体的操作过程,将脂质体和目的基因按比例混合,然后加到细胞悬液里就OK了,说的简单,实际上还是有一些细节要注意的,比如脂质体和目的基因混合的比例,转染的细胞数,细胞的代数,细胞的状态,有的还要求在转染的前一天传代一次,不过不要怕,这些在脂质体说明书上都有明确的说明,按照说明书做就可以了。
jinghuanlv认为:
悬浮细胞和贴壁细胞转染还是有很大不同的。
脂质体转染的原理基于电荷吸引原理,先形成脂质体-DNA复合物,散布在细胞周围,然后通过细胞的内吞作用,将目的基因导入细胞内,而脂质体复合物与贴壁细胞的接触机会比悬浮细胞高出很多倍,所以,脂质体转染时悬浮细胞的转染效率要明显低于贴壁细胞。
我们实验室转染悬浮细胞是用的电穿孔法,目前为止,悬浮细胞转染的最好方法还是电转,我们实验室用的电转仪是Bio-Rad的,使用条件是电压250V,电容975uF,效果不错,不妨一用。
内毒素是革兰氏阴性菌细胞壁(cellwall)上的特有成分,主要是脂多糖中的类脂A,在细菌被裂解时被释放出来,由于其化学结构和特性,在质粒的纯化过程中很容易混入质粒DNA一同提取出来。内毒素的存在会严重的影响质粒转染细胞的效率,此外会激活造血细胞(如B细胞、巨噬细胞等)的非特异免疫反应,造成实验的假阳性,所以转染级质粒的提取纯化必须去除内毒素。
