Prepare the reagents and samples
Prepare the reagents: before first use of the kit
Magnetic beads
1. Set a block heater to 37°C.
2. Incubate the Magnetic Particle suspension at 37°C for a minimum of 10 minutes with intermittent
vortexing at 900 rpm, or until the particles are completely suspended.
Binding Solution
1. Add 45 mL of 100% isopropanol to the Binding Solution bottle.
2. Label the bottle to indicate that it contains isopropanol, then store the bottle at room temperature.
Wash Buer Concentrate
1. Add 74 mL of 95% ethanol to one bottle of PrepSEQ™ Wash Buer Concentrate, then mix
completely.
2. Label the bottle to indicate that it contains ethanol, then store the bottle at room temperature.
Prepare reagents: before each use of the kit
Proteinase K (PK) mix
•Use ProteinaseK (PK) BuerII for all protocols.
Note: Proteinase K (PK) Buer is provided in the kit for use by laboratories that had previously
validated with this buer. If required, use exactly as described for ProteinaseK (PK) BuerII.
•Prepare a fresh mix before each use of the kit.
•Include a 10% overage to account for pipetting losses.

Lysis Buer 351.5µL 7,600µL
Total 360µL 7,784µL
Guidelines for optimal yields
•Maintain a homogenous suspension of the magnetic beads to maximize the surface area to which
the DNA/RNA can bind. The appearance of the mixture should be homogenous after mixing.
•After drying, the DNA/RNA remains bound to the magnetic beads. Do not allow the magnetic
beads to over-dry because this reduces the elution eciency; over-dried beads are not easily
resuspended.
•During manual elution, vortex every 2 minutes to assist elution. This will result in better yield during
recovery.
Note: Some test samples cause the beads to adhere very firmly to the tube wall, while others form
loose pellets that detach during the vortex steps. All pellets should dissolve with vortexing during
heated elution. If vortexing does not result in full resuspension, then wash the beads o the tube by
pipetting.
Note: White or brown precipitate may form in the Magnetic Particles tube if it is stored at 2–8°C.
The precipitate will dissolve when it is heated to 37°C for a minimum of 10 minutes with intermittent
vortexing. Make sure the precipitate is completely dissolved before using the beads.

Sample preparation guidelines
Sample dilution (if necessary)
Test samples from the early purification process often contain levels of DNA/RNA that are above the
highest point of the assay standard curve. You must dilute these samples (from 1:100 up to 1:10,000)
before PrepSEQ™ sample preparation.
•Dilute test samples before DNA/RNA extraction with a solution of 1X PBS (free of Mg and Ca) or
50 mM Tris, pH 8.0, 0.5M NaCl.
Note: Diluting samples in water or TE reduces extraction eciency.
•Use the sample dilution buer as the negative extraction control instead of water.
•Alternatively, dilute extracted DNA/RNA with elution buer before running the PCR reaction.
Triplicate extractions
Triplicate extractions are required for post-PCR analysis calculation of mean quantity, standard
deviation, and coecient of variation.
In addition to test samples, we recommend triplicate extractions for the negative control and the
extraction/recovery control (ERC).
Perform a single PCR reaction for each extraction.
The table below illustrates the total number of extractions required based on the 1, 2, and 3 samples
extracted in a batch.

Extraction control guidelines
We recommend that you use the following extraction controls:
Type of control Contains Number to run Used to
Negative (NEG)[1] 1X PBS (free of Mg and Ca) 1 per batch of
extractions
Test for cross-contamination of
DNA/RNA extraction reagents.
Extraction/recovery (ERC) Positive control from the kit 3 per sample •Evaluate the eciency of DNA
or RNA extraction, recovery,
and quantification from test
samples.
•Verify reagent and system
performance.
[1] Optional during routine testing.
For the Extraction/recovery (ERC) :
•Prepare the control standard dilutions as described in the relevant ViralSEQ™ user guide for your
assay.
•Add a volume of positive control standard dilution to each test sample so that the total DNA/RNA
amount is 2–10 times the amount of DNA/RNA measured in the test sample without the addition of
the DNA/RNA control.
For example (amount):
–The DNA amount measured in a test sample is ≤1 pg.
–To prepare a 10 pg ERC for a PCR elution volume of 50 µL, spike samples with 16.7µL of the 3
pg/µL positive control standard dilution (SD3) = 50 pg spike to yield 10 pg per PCR reaction.
For example (copies):
–The number of copies in a test sample is ≤2,000 copies.
–Spike control sample at 1x 105 copies using appropriate standard control concentration.
–If 1:20 (10 µL out of 200 µL eluate) of the KingFisher™ Flex extraction is used for qPCR, there
are 5,000 expected copies of spike control per PCR reaction.
–If 1:5 (10 µL out of 50 µL eluate) of the manual extraction is used for qPCR, there are 20,000
expected copies of spike control per PCR reaction.
•Prepare three separate extractions for each test sample, then add the ERC to each reaction. Do not
prepare a large volume of ERC, then aliquot it into three reactions.
Note: To calculate the eciency of DNA/RNA recovery and quantification from the test samples,
subtract the amount of DNA/RNA measured in the sample without the addition of DNA/RNA control
from the amount of DNA/RNA measured in the ERC sample.

Good laboratory practices
Good laboratory practices for PCR and RT-PCR
•Wear clean gloves and a clean lab coat.
–Do not wear the same gloves and lab coat that you have previously used when handling
amplified products or preparing samples.
•Change gloves if you suspect that they are contaminated.
•Maintain separate areas and dedicated equipment and supplies for:
–Sample preparation and reaction setup.
–Amplification and analysis of products.
•Do not bring amplified products into the reaction setup area.
•Open and close all sample tubes carefully. Avoid splashing or spraying samples.
•Keep reactions and components capped as much as possible.
•Use a positive-displacement pipettor or aerosol‑resistant barrier pipette tips.
•Clean lab benches and equipment periodically with a 10% bleach solution or decontamination
solutions (for example, DNAZap™ PCR DNA Degradation Solutions (Cat.No.AM9890) and
RNaseZap™ RNase Decontamination Solution (Cat.No.AM9780).
Avoiding false positives due to cross-contamination
To avoid false positives due to cross-contamination:
•Prepare and close all negative control and unknown sample tubes before pipetting the positive
control.
•Do not open tubes after amplification.
•Use dierent sets of pipettors when pipetting negative control, unknown, and positive control

•For each plate row, dispense in sequence from left to right the: negative controls, unknown
samples and ERCs, and positive controls (at the end of the row or column).

•If possible, separate all samples from each other by at least one well; if space is limiting, place at
least one well between unknown samples and controls.
