Introduction
EasyMag DNA Purification Kit from bacteria provides a rapid and easy method for the isolation of high-quality genomic DNA from a wide variety of gram-positive and negative bacterial species. This kit can be processed manually or on an automated platform. The buffer system is optimized to allow direct cell lysis followed by selective binding of DNA to the magnetic beads. Three rapid wash steps remove trace salts and protein contaminants, and finally, DNA is eluted in water or low ionic strength buffer. Purification requires no phenol or chloroform extraction or alcohol precipitation, and involves minimal handling. DNA purified using this kit is ready for most downstream applications such as PCR, sequencing, genotyping, southern blot analysis and restriction enzyme digestion.
Features
-
