High-Throughput Genomic DNA from Blood, Cultured Cells, and Various Animal Tissues
The 96-Well Genomic DNA Kits are designed for high-throughput purification of total DNA (including genomic, mitochondrial and viral DNA) from whole blood and a variety of animal tissues or cells. This method uses Proteinase K and a chaotropic salt to lyse cells and degrade proteins. DNA in the chaotropic salt is bound by the glass fiber matrix of each well. Once any contaminants have been removed, the purified DNA is eluted by a low salt elution buffer or water. The entire procedure can be completed in 1 hour without phenol extraction or alcohol precipitation. These kits can be used for manual filtration or with robotic handling systems, and purified DNA with approximately 20-30kb is suitable for PCR or other enzymatic reactions.
