foodproof^® Sample Preparation Kit IV

The foodproof Sample Preparation Kit IV is optimized for the isolation and purification of viral DNA and RNA from various food and water samples.

Principle

• The foodproof Sample Preparation Kit IV lysis buffer extracts the DNA / RNA out of virus particles.
• Absolute ethanol removes the hydration shell from nucleic acids.
• DNA / RNA is than bound to the glass fibers of pre-packed filter tubes.
• With the wash buffer I and II DNA / RNA will be cleaned and purified.
• At the final step DNA / RNA is recovered using the elution buffer and stabilized by a ribonuclease inhibitor.

Features

• Isolation of purified viral DNA / RNA.
• The DNA / RNA is suitable for all qualitative and quantitative applications on many real-time PCR devices.
• Variable sample-extraction volumes up to 500 µl.
• Designed and validated for many food matrices, including some with inhibitors (e.g. soft fruits and mussels).
