* The yield of low copy plasmid could be less than the amount shown in this table.

X. Sample Preparation

Starting material

Several factors such as plasmid copy number, bacterial strain, antibiotics, inoculation and type of culture

medium may influence the yield of plasmid DNA. It is recommended to extract plasmids from the bacterial

cultures that have been inoculated with a single pure colony from the agar plate.

Copy number of plasmid

Plasmids used in molecular cloning usually contain pMB1 derived replicons (e.g. pUC plasmid). Plasmids

that contain pMB1 derived replicons have a relaxed control of replication and thus have very high copy

numbers. In contrast, pSC101 plasmid has a stringent control of replication and maintain a low copy

number. Generally, high-copy number plasmids will result in higher yield than low-copy number plasmids.

Table 1. Replicons carried by various plasmid vectors

Plasmids Copy number Replicon Classification

pUC 500-700 pMB1* High copy

pGEM 300-500 pMB1* High copy

pBluescript 300-500 ColE1* High copy

pTZ >1000 pMB1* High copy

pET 15-20 pMB1* Low copy

pAYC 10-12 P15A Low copy

pBR322 15-20 pMB1* Low copy

pSC101 ~5 pSC101 Very low copy

* The pMB1 origin of replication (ori) is closely related to that of ColE1 and belongs in the same incompatibility group

of ColE1. The high-copy plasmids listed above contain pMB1 derived replicons.

Host strains

Some strains, especially endA+ strains such as JM101, JM110, HB101, TG1 and their derivatives may

produce lower yield and quality of plasmid DNA than DH1, DH5α and XL1-Blue strains. In addition, strains

derived from HB101 strains can produce large amounts of carbohydrates, which may inhibit activity of many

restriction enzymes and polymerases.

Antibiotics

Antibiotics used in bacterial selection can influence growth of bacteria at all stages. As antibiotics are

sensitive to storage condition and high temperatures, stock solutions of antibiotics should be stored in

aliquots at -20℃. To test whether antibiotics are still effective, fresh cultures inoculated from freshly prepared

bacterial culture plates should be used.

Table 2. Recommended concentrations of commonly used antibiotics

Antibiotics Stock solution Storage Working concentration

Ampicillin 40mg/ml in H2O -20℃ 80μg/ml

Tetracycline HCl 10mg/ml in 50% Ethanol -20℃ 50μg/ml

Kanamycin 10mg/ml in H2O -20℃ 50μg/ml

Culture medium

The Luria Bertani (LB) medium is one of the most commonly used media to grow bacterial cells. MagListo™

5M Plasmid Extraction Kit is optimized for use with LB media. As the ratio of plasmid DNA to RNA is higher

during the logarithmic phase, it is recommended to collect bacterial cells cultured for approximately 12 h to

16 h (when stationary growth phase starts).

Revision : 2 (2016-11-04)

XI. Principle

MagListo™ 5M Plasmid Extraction Kit is designed for the extraction of highly purified plasmid from

cultured bacterial cells as fast as 5 min. The overall principle is based on the modified alkaline lysis

method (Birnboim et al, 1979) and Bioneer’s novel Nano-Technology (Patent pending).

Collected cells are re-suspended in Buffer ① (Resuspension) that contains Nano Beads, followed by a

lysis step with the addition of Buffer ② (Lysis). When Buffer ③ (Neutralization) is added to the lysate, the

chromosomal DNA and cell debris forms insoluble aggregates. While forming aggregates, Bioneer’s Nano

Beads effectively facilitate the process by binding to protein and cell debris aggregates and increasing the

total weight of the complex. The aggregates are separated using a magnetic force from supernatant

including plasmid, which is then transferred to a new tube for an ensuing process. Guanidine hydrochloride,

as chaotropic agents in Buffer ④ (Binding), removes water molecules around DNA and silica coated

magnetic bead surface resulting in plasmid then being captured by silica coated magnetic beads. The

magnetic bead and nucleic acid complexes are pulled and fixed on the tube wall using a magnetic force,

followed by washing with 80% ethanol to remove debris and excessive salts. The captured nucleic acids

are then eluted by Buffer ⑥ (Elution), an aqueous solution with optimal pH.

Sample Lysis Binding Washing Elution

XII. Magnetic Nano Bead Information

Description

Magnetic Nano Beads have been developed to overcome shortcomings of existing resin and to automate

purification process. The principle of extraction using the Magnetic Nano Beads is that coated functional

group on the surface of the Magnetic Nano Beads bind with DNA and the Magnetic Nano Beads are then

isolated using external magnetic field.

XVI. Protocols

Before You Begin

1. Completely dissolve RNase A powder in Buffer ① (Resuspension). After addition of RNase A powder,

Buffer ① (Resuspension) is stable for 6 months when stored at 2 - 8℃.

2. Buffer ④ (Binding) contains chaotropic salt. You should take the appropriate laboratory safety

precautions and wear gloves when handling.

3. The relative centrifugal force (RCF) is calculated in g as follows:

RCF = 1.12 x r x (rpm/1,000)2

Where ‘r’ is the radius of a rotor in cm, and ‘rpm’ is the speed of the rotor in revolutions per minute.

4. If there is any precipitate in Buffer ② (Lysis), incubate on a heating block at 56℃

Bacterial Culture and Collection

For mini prep / 8-channel prep

1. Pick up a single pure colony from freshly cultured LB (Luria-Bertani) agar plate or your media of choice

containing antibiotics, and inoculate into 1 ml to 5 ml of fresh LB liquid media or your liquid media in a

shaking incubator at 37℃ for 12 h to16 h.

(Note) The overgrowth of E. coli cells may cause cell death, which may lead to lower yield of plasmid

DNA due to inefficient lysis.

For high copy number plasmid: 1 - 5 ml of E. coli cells.

For low copy number plasmid: 2 - 10 ml of E. coli cells.

2. After incubation, collect the E. coli cells by centrifuging at 6000 x g for 15 min at 4℃. Remove the

supernatant (liquid media) completely using a paper towel by blotting action.

Buffer ① (Resuspension) to the harvested cell pellet and completely resuspend by vigorous vortexing

or several pipetting.

(Note) You must completely resuspend the cell pellet to achieve maximum lysis efficiency. Given that

buffer ① (Resuspension) contains Magnetic Nano Beads, please shake well the bottle before

use. If you have harvested cell pellet in a 15 ml (mini) / 50 ml (midi) / 100-250 ml (maxi) / 1.5

ml (8-channel) tube, please transfer the resuspended cells to a 2 ml or 1.5 ml (mini) / 15 ml

(midi) / 50 ml (maxi) / 1 ml (8-channel) tube.

*Caution! Please check the magnetic bead completed suspended in solution. Incomplete suspension

can lead to partial removal of aggregation.

2. (Lysis of cell) Add 200 μl (mini) / 2 ml (midi) / 6 ml (maxi) / 100 μl (8-channel) of Buffer ② (Lysis) to

the each tube and mix by inverting the tube 3-4 times gently.

(Note) Do not vortex but just invert gently. Vortexing can cause shearing of genomic DNA.

3. (Neutralization) Add 200 μl (mini) / 2 ml (midi) / 6 ml (maxi) / 100 μl (8-channel) of Buffer ③

(Neutralization) to the each tube and immediately mix by inverting the tube 3-4 times gently.

(Note) Genomic DNA and cell debris will form an insoluble complex with Nano Beads in this step.

Again, be cautious to handle the lysate gently not to shear genomic DNA.

4. (Debris removal: 4-6) Place the tube on the MagListo™-2 (mini) / -15 (midi) / -50 (maxi) /-8Ch (8-

channel) rack Magnetic Separation Rack with the magnet plate attached and invert the rack gently 3-4

times until the beads bind tightly to magnet.

(Optional) For better yield, centrifuge the tube at 13,000 rpm for 1 min (mini) / 5 min (midi) / 10 min

(maxi). Transfer cleared lysate to a new 2 ml or 1.5 ml (mini) / 15 ml (midi) / 50 ml (maxi)

tube and go step 7.

channel) of evenly mixed Magnetic Nano Bead solution to the each tube. Close the cap and mix by

inverting the each tube 3-4 times with the magnet plate detached.

(Note) Magnetic Nano Bead solution contains Magnetic Nano Beads. Please shake well before use.

8. Place the tube on the MagListo™ Magnetic Separation Rack with the magnet plate attached and invert

the rack gently 3-4 times until the beads bind tightly to magnet.

9. Without removing the each tube from MagListo™ Magnetic Separation Rack, discard the supernatant

carefully completely remove the remaining supernatant on a paper towel by using blotting action.

During this process, the magnetic crude pellet remains attached to the side of tube.

- How to discard the supernatant

Discard the supernatant by inverting the MagListo™ Magnetic Separation Rack. The silicone

immobilizer inside the stand prevents the tubes from falling. When discarding the supernatant, invert

the rack completely so that the solution does not to spill on the rack.

10. (Washing: 10-12) Detach the magnet plate from MagListo™ Magnetic Separation Rack. Add 1 ml

(mini) / 10 ml (midi) / 30 ml (maxi) / 500 μl (8-channel) of 80% ethanol to the tube and close the cap.

Mix by inverting until the beads are fully resuspended.

XVII. Appendix

Troubleshooting guide

The guide will help you to solve problem that may arise during DNA extraction. For other technical

assistance or more information, please contact our technical assistance team.

Comments and suggestions

Low or no yield

Performance of buffers or other reagents may have been lowered. Please

make sure that reagents are stored at room temperature at all times upon

arrival and that all reagent bottles are closed tightly, in order to preserve

pH and stability, and to avoid contamination.

Cell debris is not fully removed. Include debris removal step, especially for

mini (8-Channel?) scale. Refer to step 4 (optional) in page 8 for detail.

The cells may not have been completely resuspended with Buffer ①

(Resuspension). Make sure that cells are completely resuspended.

Excess amount of starting sample was used to extract DNA. Add

appropriate amount of starting sample (see “Kit Specification” in page 4)

for efficient extraction of genomic DNA.

Elution may have been incomplete. Extend incubation time up to 3 minutes

at elution step to improve the yield, In addition, make sure that Magnetic

Nano Beads are suspended completely in the eluting solution during

incubation.

Pellet of Magnetic Nano Bead could be lost while discarding solution.

Check that all of the Nano Beads bind tightly to magnet when you discard

solution.

Insufficient shaking or vortexing during lysis step may lead to low DNA

yield than expected. Shake or mix with a vortex mixer sufficiently during

incubation step.

16

www.bioneer.com

BQ-042-101-01

Revision : 2 (2016-11-04)

Low A260/280 ratio

Beads may have been washed insufficiently. Wash the beads properly in

the 3rd washing step. Remaining ethanol can decrease the purity of DNA.

Take enough time to properly wash the beads.

Incomplete suspension of beads during the washing step causes salts to

remain in the purified DNA. Make sure that the beads are suspended

thoroughly during the washing process.

Contamination

of chromosomal DNA

During neutralization step, it is important that you do not vortex or shake

sample tubes vigorously. Also, total lysis reaction should not be longer

than 5 min. These conditions can shear chromosomal DNA. Make sure

that the lysate was handled gently.

Aggregation of Magnetic

Nano Bead

Excess amount of starting sample is used to extract DNA. Add appropriate

amount of starting material (see “Kit Specification” in page 4) for efficient

extraction of genomic DNA.

Presence of white precipitate

in some buffer

A white precipitate may form in Buffer ④ (Binding) due to prolonged

storage at low temperatures. Incubate Buffer ④ (Binding) at 60℃ to

dissolve any precipitate in the buffer.

Too many background bands

in sequencing analysis

There may be high endonuclease activity in your strain of host E. coli, such

as HB101, JM series etc. EndA- strain instead of EndA+ strain instead.

Sample

containing RNA

RNase A activity becomes lowered, especially in the case that it has been

over 6 months since RNase A powder was added to Buffer ①

(Resuspension). Add more RNase A powder, up to 100 ng/μl, or use fresh

RNase A.

17

BQ-042-101-01

Revision : 2 (2016-11-04)

Degraded DNA

The DNA from old or inappropriately stored sample may often be

degraded. As the DNA yield is highly dependent on storage conditions of

samples, please use fresh samples for optimal results. In case of using

stored tissue sample, it is recommended to use sample stored at -70℃.

Frequent freezing and thawing may result in lower DNA yield. Avoid

repeated freezing and thawing.

Flotation of extracted DNA

when loaded on an agarose

gel

Floating of DNA on an agarose gel is caused by the remaining ethanol in

the eluted DNA. Ensure that the 3rd Washing (ethanol removing) step in the
