Protocol of SARS-CoV-2 Pseudovirus (PSV)-Based Neutralization Assay For Vaccines, therapeutic antibodies, peptides and compounds against COVID-19

GeneMedi’s Pseudovirus Based Neutralization Assay (PBNA) is a conventional assay method that is suitable for High-Throughout Screening (HTS) without live virus engaged.

Preparation of AuNP conjugates with recombinant antigens, protein or antibodies for immunoassay — Diagnostic Application Protocol

To prepare the AuNP (gold nanoparticle) conjugate, the recombinant protein dissolved in PBS (1 mg/mL) was added to the mixture of 1mL AuNP colloid (40nm in diameter, OD=1) and 0.1mL of borate buffer (0.1 M, pH 8.5). Incubation for 30 min at room temperature.

Protocol of SARS-CoV2 (2019nCoV) Spike-RBD antibodies standard biopanning and competitive biopanning

S-RBD was diluted with 0.05 M PH 9.6 carbonate buffer [1]. Then add 100 μL to each well of 96-well Maxisorp plates at 4°C overnight.

Protocol of SARS-CoV2 (2019nCoV) NP paired antibodies sandwich ELISA

The Capture Antibody #1 was diluted to a concentration of 1 ~ 10 ug/ml with 0.05 M PH 9.6 carbonate buffer. Then add 100 μL to each well of polystyrene plate at 4℃ overnight.

Detection Antibody HRP labeling For diagnostics application (ELISA)

Add 200 μL of 0.1M NalO4 solution [1] (freshly prepared just before use) to the solution obtained in step 1 and stirred for 20 minutes at room temperature. Protect from light.

Spike & ACE2-blocking activities assay

Recombinant human ACE2 was diluted to a concentration of 5μg/ml with 0.05 M PH 9.6 carbonate buffer. Then add 100 μL to each well of polystyrene plate at 4°C overnight.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV vector) – Production/Packaging Protocol, Guidelines

The gene of interest is cloned into one of the ITR/MCS-containing AAV vectors to generate AAV-GOI. The purity and RNAse contaminants of AAV viral plasmid should be taken into consideration.

T7 Endonuclease I (T7E1) Assay Protocol for CRISPR/Cas9 gRNA validation

Design genomic DNA primers that are approximatley 18 to 22 basepairs in length and have 45-55% GC content. For best results, use primers with a Tm greater than 55 C. Design primers to yield amplicon length between 400-500 bp. In addition, design primers so that the predicted cleavage site is not in the center of the amplicon and the detection reaction will yield two distinct product bands.

Protocol of CRISPR /Cas9 mediated gene knockout in vitro and in vivo

Genemedi has launched a comprehensive AAV packaging service combined with CRISPR/Cas9, the versatile genome-editing platform. The followings are some protocols of CRISPR /Cas9 mediated gene knockout in vitro and in vivo.

Adenovirus – Production/Packaging Protocol, Guidelines

The gene of interest is cloned into one of the ITR/MCS-containing adenovirus vectors to generate pAd-GOI. The purity and RNA contaminants of viral plasmid should be taken into consideration.

Lentivirus Infection Protocol for stable cell line development (CLD)

This protocol is for the stable cell line construction based on puromycin selection.

Lentivirus vector-Production/Packaging Protocol,Guidelines And References

The gene of interest is cloned into one of the LTR/MCS-containing lentivirus vectors to generate pLV-GOI. The purity and RNA contaminants of viral plasmid should be taken into consideration.

Protocol for virus injection in vivo

Animal experiment is essential in biomedical research. It contains establishment of a nude mouse tumor model and other disease model. Besides, gene transfection in vivo is included as well.
