foodproof® Sample Preparation Kit III
The Sample Preparation Kit III is designed for the demanding isolation and purification of DNA from raw materials and foodstuffs of plant or animal origin for GMO, allergen or animal ID analysis by real-time PCR.
Principle
- Cells are lysed by incubation in the foodproof Sample Preparation Kit III extraction buffer.
- Extracted DNA is digested in proteinase K to destroy endogenous nucleases and other proteins.
- The DNA is applied to the included glass fiber filter and purified with the foodproof Sample Preparation Kit III wash buffer.
- Purified DNA is then eluted using the foodproof Sample Preparation Kit III elution buffer and is ready to use.
Features
- Isolation of highly purified DNA, free of other cellular components and PCR inhibitors
- The DNA is suitable for all qualitative and quantitative applications on all major real-time PCR devices
- Designed for all plant and animal matrices, including those containing genetically modified organisms
