Apostle MiniMax High Efficiency Cell-Free DNA Isolation Kit

The ability to isolate and analyze circulating cell free DNA (cfDNA) at very low concentrations is becoming increasingly important, particularly in non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT), early cancer detection, and infectious disease diagnosis. Highly efficient isolation of cfDNA from complexed biological medium is a crucial step for subsequent cfDNA analysis. Apostle MiniMax technology offers a best-in-class efficiency and purity compared with conventional technologies to capture and isolate the circulating cell-free genetic materials. Its superb performance has been extensively validated.

Superior performance: cfRNA isolation

Apostle MiniMax High Efficiency Cell-Free RNA Isolation Kit

Apostle MiniMax High Efficiency cfRNA Isolation Kit offers superior isolation efficiency of cell-free RNAs between 17 nt to 1000 nt, without phenol or chloroform. it is ready for a broad range of subsequent applications, including sequencing, PCR, etc. It is suitable for processing samples collected in various major blood collection tubes, especially which will prevent RNA degradation during storage.

As used in:
  • Terminal modifications independent cell-free RNA sequencing enables sensitive early cancer detection and classification. Nature Communications 15, Article number: 156 (2024).
  • Comprehensive characterization of small noncoding RNA profiles in hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH) rat tissues. iScience 2024 Feb 16; 27(2): 108815.

Apostle MiniMax Cell-Free DNA Blood Collection Tube

Powered by Apostle MiniMax technology, Apostle MiniMax cfDNA Blood Collection Tube (BCT) is an excellent tool for blood cfDNA preservation during blood collection, storage and transport.
This is achieved through Apostle MiniMax cfDNA BCT’s ability to:
  • Prevent the release and contamination of genomic DNA from cells in blood during storage and transportation.
  • Preserve existing cfDNA in blood from degradation.
  • Prevent existing cfDNA in blood from cross-linking with with other biomolecules (i.e. protein).
In summary, high cfDNA quality can be preserved with Apostle MiniMax cfDNA Blood Collection Tube for downstream applications, through the prevention of cfDNA degradation, crosslingking and contamination.

As used in:
Next-generation Enrichment of Short DNA fragments for NIPT and Oncology Research

Apostle MiniEnrich Short Fragments Enrichment Kit

Precise DNA sizing can boost sequencing efficiency, reduce cost, improve data quality, and even allow sequencing of low-input samples, while current pervasive DNA sizing approaches are incapable of differentiating DNA fragments under 200 bp with high resolution (<20 bp). The Apostle MiniEnrich Short Fragments Enrichment Kit is a simple, automatable, high-resolution DNA size enrichment workflow on a magnetic nano-platform to exploit this 20 bp size difference and to enrich fetal DNA fragments from maternal blood.

Next-generation purification, size selection, and long-read size selection

Apostle MiniEnrich Carboxyl Beads for Purification (AMPure XP alternative)

Next-generation purification, size selection, and long-read size selection.

The Apostle MiniEnrich Purification Beads is designed for purification and clean-up of DNA fragments from the contaminants in NGS and molecular biology workflows. It can be used on samples after DNA isolation, fragmentation, PCR amplification, cloning, library preparation, etc. With proprietary Apostle MiniEnrich technology, the kit is featured for its more efficient removal of contaminants and recovery of DNA fragments of interest than current market-leading products. This product is an effective alternative to AMPure XP, a brand name owned by Beckman Coulter. This product is not manufactured by Beckman Coulter.
