DNA Extraction/Genomic DNA Purification
The gSYNC™ DNA Extraction Kit is a genomic DNA extraction kit optimized for genomic, mitochondrial and virus DNA purification from whole blood (fresh blood and frozen blood), serum, plasma, buffy coat, body fluids, cultured cells, tissue, rodent tails, ear punches, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE), amniotic fluid, hair, insects and sperm in one convenient kit. This DNA extraction kit uses Proteinase K and chaotropic salt to lyse cells and degrade protein, allowing DNA to bind to the glass fiber matrix of the spin column. Contaminants are removed using a Wash Buffer and the purified genomic DNA is eluted by a low salt Elution Buffer, TE or water. The entire procedure can be completed in less than 20 minutes without phenol/chloroform extraction or alcohol precipitation. Purified DNA, with approximately 20-30 kb, is suitable for use in PCR or other enzymatic reactions.
