Information

The genesig easy DNA/RNA extraction protocol begins with a simple lysis step where cells and tissue are lysed to release their nucleic acid. Then minute magnetic particles are added to bind to DNA/RNA.  When placed on to the genesig magnetic separator the particles are pulled to the side of the tube making it easy to remove the unwanted supernatant with a pipette.  Then a series of simple wash steps are performed before the DNA/RNA is washed off the beads back in to solution, ready for analysis by real-time PCR.

Its fast, and incredibly easy to perform.  

Suitable sample types:

  • Clinical and Veterinary - including whole blood, plasma, and serum; saliva and sputum; faeces and urine; tissues; dry swabs; and bacterial culture broth
  • Food - including meat, fish, milk, and cooked or processed food products
  • Environmental - including plant, soil, and water
