foodproof® Magnetic Preparation Kit VI
The Magnetic Preparation Kit VI is designed for the reliable purification of viral nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) from a variety of samples and species. These include a wide range of matrices: whole blood, plasma, serum, sputum, feces, allantoic fluid, tissue and swabs from porcine, bovine, poultry and small ruminants.
Principle
- Lysis step using enzymes, carrier tRNA and lysis buffer.
- Extracted RNA or DNA is then bound to the magnetic beads and purified with the wash buffers to remove protein and other cellular contaminants.
- Purified RNA or DNA is eluted in an appropriate elution buffer and is then ready to be used in PCR detection kits.
Features
- Innovative magnetic bead technology for the isolation of highly purified RNA/DNA.
- Optimized and validated for a wide range of viruses (e.g. Coronaviridae, Orthomyxoviridae, Asfarviridae, Picornaviridae, and many more)
- High throughput with automation solutions: the foodproof RoboPrep® 32, KingFisherTM Flex or the Fusion systems
