Notes: Wizard® SV Gel and PCR Clean-Up System was used to clean up genomic DNA isolated from parasitic nematodes isolated from a variety of animals.

Wizard® SV Gel and PCR Clean-Up System was also used to prepare amplicons generated by long-PCR of mt genomes from the nematodes before NGS sequencing. Results from NGS were confirmed using PCR-based sequencing of short mt DNA tracts. Short mtDNA regions were amplified by conventional PCR. Amplicons were purified using Wizard® PCR Preps DNA Purification System before sequencing using BigDye chemistry. (4533)

Notes: The authors studied the relationship between transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels and Ca²⁺ elevation in the cannabinoid-2 receptor-expressing human peripheral blood-acute lymphoid leukemia (HPB-ALL) human T cell line.
