Comparative Analysis of the Application of Polystyrene Microspheres and Polystyrene Carboxyl Microspheres in Biotechnology – Focusing on Nucleic Acid Removal.
(LNJNbio Polystyrene Microspheres)
In the area of modern-day biotechnology, microsphere products are widely made use of in the removal and filtration of DNA and RNA as a result of their high particular surface, great chemical security and functionalized surface buildings. Among them, polystyrene (PS) microspheres and their derived polystyrene carboxyl (CPS) microspheres are among the two most widely studied and used materials. This post is provided with technological support and information analysis by Shanghai Lingjun Biotechnology Co., Ltd., aiming to systematically compare the performance differences of these two types of products in the process of nucleic acid extraction, covering crucial indicators such as their physicochemical properties, surface modification ability, binding effectiveness and recovery rate, and illustrate their relevant situations through speculative data.
Polystyrene microspheres are uniform polymer bits polymerized from styrene monomers with good thermal stability and mechanical strength. Its surface area is a non-polar framework and normally does not have energetic functional groups. Consequently, when it is directly used for nucleic acid binding, it needs to rely upon electrostatic adsorption or hydrophobic activity for molecular fixation. Polystyrene carboxyl microspheres introduce carboxyl functional groups (– COOH) on the basis of PS microspheres, making their surface capable of additional chemical combining. These carboxyl groups can be covalently adhered to nucleic acid probes, proteins or various other ligands with amino teams through activation systems such as EDC/NHS, consequently accomplishing a lot more steady molecular addiction. Consequently, from an architectural perspective, CPS microspheres have extra benefits in functionalization possibility.
Nucleic acid removal typically consists of actions such as cell lysis, nucleic acid launch, nucleic acid binding to strong stage carriers, washing to remove impurities and eluting target nucleic acids. In this system, microspheres play a core function as strong phase carriers. PS microspheres mainly rely on electrostatic adsorption and hydrogen bonding to bind nucleic acids, and their binding effectiveness has to do with 60 ~ 70%, however the elution effectiveness is reduced, just 40 ~ 50%. In contrast, CPS microspheres can not only make use of electrostatic results yet likewise achieve more strong addiction with covalent bonding, lowering the loss of nucleic acids during the washing process. Its binding efficiency can reach 85 ~ 95%, and the elution performance is additionally enhanced to 70 ~ 80%. In addition, CPS microspheres are likewise dramatically better than PS microspheres in regards to anti-interference capacity and reusability.
In order to confirm the efficiency differences between both microspheres in actual procedure, Shanghai Lingjun Biotechnology Co., Ltd. carried out RNA removal experiments. The speculative samples were stemmed from HEK293 cells. After pretreatment with typical Tris-HCl barrier and proteinase K, 5 mg/mL PS and CPS microspheres were made use of for removal. The outcomes showed that the typical RNA yield removed by PS microspheres was 85 ng/ μL, the A260/A280 proportion was 1.82, and the RIN worth was 7.2, while the RNA return of CPS microspheres was enhanced to 132 ng/ μL, the A260/A280 proportion was close to the excellent worth of 1.91, and the RIN worth got to 8.1. Although the procedure time of CPS microspheres is a little longer (28 mins vs. 25 mins) and the expense is greater (28 yuan vs. 18 yuan/time), its extraction top quality is considerably enhanced, and it is preferable for high-sensitivity discovery, such as qPCR and RNA-seq.

From the viewpoint of application scenarios, PS microspheres appropriate for large screening projects and preliminary enrichment with reduced demands for binding uniqueness because of their affordable and straightforward procedure. Nevertheless, their nucleic acid binding capability is weak and quickly impacted by salt ion concentration, making them inappropriate for long-term storage or duplicated usage. On the other hand, CPS microspheres appropriate for trace example removal as a result of their rich surface area functional groups, which help with additional functionalization and can be used to construct magnetic grain discovery kits and automated nucleic acid extraction systems. Although its prep work procedure is relatively complex and the price is relatively high, it reveals more powerful adaptability in scientific study and clinical applications with rigorous requirements on nucleic acid extraction efficiency and pureness.
With the quick advancement of molecular diagnosis, gene editing and enhancing, liquid biopsy and various other fields, greater demands are placed on the efficiency, purity and automation of nucleic acid extraction. Polystyrene carboxyl microspheres are slowly replacing conventional PS microspheres due to their superb binding efficiency and functionalizable attributes, becoming the core choice of a new generation of nucleic acid removal materials. Shanghai Lingjun Biotechnology Co., Ltd. is likewise constantly enhancing the bit dimension circulation, surface area thickness and functionalization performance of CPS microspheres and developing matching magnetic composite microsphere products to satisfy the needs of professional diagnosis, scientific research study establishments and commercial customers for top quality nucleic acid removal remedies.
