EasyMag FFPE DNA Purification Kit

EasyMag FFPE DNA Purification Kit is designed for rapid and reliable isolation of DNA from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections. Paraffin removal can be performed using a xylene and ethanol method. Samples are incubated in a specialized lysis buffer along with Proteinase K to reverse crosslinking, effectively releasing short and long DNA fragments. The released DNA is then purified using magnetic bead technology. Purification requires no phenol or chloroform extraction or alcohol precipitation, and involves minimal handling. Purified DNA is suitable for downstream applications including SNP analysis, sequencing, and genotyping.

Features

• Fast – DNA purification process in less than 20 min post-lysis.
• Safe – No organic extraction, no ethanol precipitation.
• High-quality – DNA is suitable for a variety of downstream applications.
