The blackPREP Rodent Tail DNA Kit has been specially optimized for isolating DNA from pieces of mouse and rat tails, guaranteeing extremely high yields in a very short period of time (typically 3 hours or less).

• Optimized for extracting genomic DNA from pieces of rodent tails (complex starting materials)
• Extremely fast lysis and highly efficient DNA isolation in 1 to 3 hours
• Samples do not need to be incubated overnight
• Mouse and rat tail pieces can be up to 1.2 cm and 0.6 cm in length, respectively

The blackPREP Rodent Tail DNA Kit has been specially optimized for isolating DNA from pieces of mouse and rat tails, guaranteeing extremely high yields in a very short period of time (typically 3 hours or less). The kit, with its new purification chemistry, is part of a new Analytik Jena product line for nucleic acid extraction. Like the innuPREP DNA Kits that have been available for many years, blackPREP DNA Kits are likewise based on a reliable separation process using spin filter columns. In addition, the extraction process for pieces of rodent tails is complete within 3 hours thanks to a highly efficient sample lysis step that eliminates the need for the traditional overnight lysis processes.
