By adapting HiBind® technology with 96-well plates, the E-Z 96® Tissue DNA kit provides a high throughput method to purify genomic DNA from whole blood, buccal swabs, mouse tail, rat tail, tissues and animal cells and tissues in a 96-well plate format. Purified DNA is suitable for most downstream applications such as PCR, restriction enzyme digestion, and hybridisation techniques.

PerfeCTa® PreAmp SuperMix is a 5X concentrated, ready to use reaction cocktail for unbiased, selected enrichment of target sequences from limited amounts of starting material for downstream gene expression profiling or targeted resequencing. It contains all components, except primers and templates. The 5X concentrated SuperMix allows addition of higher template volumes when working with low concentration samples, and/or reduced reaction volumes. Inclusion of an inert light blue tracer dye helps visualise small reaction volumes and ensure accurate pipetting.

The Mag-Bind® Plant DNA DS 96 Kit is designed for difficult samples (DS) which are hard to lyse or contain high amounts of polysaccharides and polyphenols. The system uses a CTAB-based lysis buffer which does not require organic solvents. The proprietary binding system prevents inhibitors from binding to the magnetic beads. The wash buffer system further removes polysaccharides, phenolic compounds and enzyme inhibitors from plant tissue lysate. An optional rebinding step is included with the kit but most samples do not require the additional treatment.

Plasmid isolated with traditional purification procedures normally contain high levels of endotoxins that can significantly interfere with transfection experiments downstream. The E.Z.N.A.® Endo-Free Plasmid kits integrate an efficient endotoxin removal step into the plasmid purification procedure to produce high quality transfection grade plasmid.

AccuStart™ Genotyping ToughMix® is a 2X concentrated ready to use reaction cocktail for PCR amplification of DNA templates that overcomes inhibitors often present in crude samples extracted from environmental specimens, plant tissues, or animal tissues. It is a versatile and robust PCR reagent that provides highly specific and efficient amplification for genotyping sequence variants including allelic discrimination of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using a variety of fluorogenic probe chemistries, including TaqMan® hydrolysis probes.

Gel purification of DNA is a common technique used for the isolation of specific DNA fragments. However, most methods either fail to completely remove agarose (which can lead to problems in downstream manipulations), shear the DNA, or result in very low yields.

The E.Z.N.A.® Insect DNA kit is designed for efficient recovery of genomic DNA up to 60 kb in size from insects, arthropods, roundworms, flatworms, invertebrates, as well as some plant tissue samples. The method is suitable for samples frozen or preserved in alcohol or DNE solution, and good results can be obtained with formalin preserved material. The procedure relies on the well established properties of the cationic detergent, cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), in conjunction with the selective DNA binding of HiBind matrix. This allows salts, proteins and other contaminants to be removed to yield high quality genomic DNA suitable for downstream applications such as endonuclease digestion, thermal cycle amplification, and hybridisation techniques.

sparQ Universal Library Quant Kit provides rapid and accurate quantification of libraries prepared for sequencing on Illumina® NGS platforms.

Supplier: OMEGA BIOTEK

Isolate host genomic, bacterial, fungal spore, and viral DNA and viral RNA from tissue, urine, serum, and fecal samples using magnetic beads.

Supplier: Quantabio

AccuStart™ II PCR ToughMix® is a 2X concentrated ready to use reaction cocktail for PCR amplification of DNA templates that overcomes many known inhibitors of PCR often present in crude samples extracted from environmental specimens, plant tissues, or animal tissues. It contains all components, except primers and template.

The E.Z.N.A.® Forensic DNA Kit is designed to provide a rapid and easy method for the isolation of genomic DNA from forensic samples such as dry blood, buccal swabs, and semen samples for consistent PCR and Southern analysis. This kit can also be used for the preparation of genomic DNA from mouse tail snips, whole blood, buffy coat, serum, and plasma.

Supplier: OMEGA BIOTEK

The E.Z.N.A.® SQ blood DNA kit provides a reliable method for the isolation of high molecular weight genomic DNA from fresh, frozen, or anti-coagulated whole blood. The method can also be used for preparation of genomic DNA from buffy coat, bone marrow or cultured cells. There is no need for phenol/chloroform extractions, and time consuming steps such as CsCl gradient ultracentrifugation are eliminated. DNA purified using the E.Z.N.A.® SQ blood DNA method is ready for downstream applications such as PCR, southern blotting and restriction enzyme digestion.

The E.Z.N.A.® Blood RNA Kit is designed for the isolation of total intracellular RNA from up to 1 ml of fresh, or frozen whole blood treated with any common anticoagulant such as heparin, EDTA or acid-citrate-dextrose. The procedure completely removes contaminants and enzyme inhibitors making total RNA isolation fast, convenient and reliable. Red blood cells are selectively lysed and white cells are collected by centrifugation. After lysis of white blood cells under denaturing conditions that inactivate RNases, the lysate is homogenised with a homogeniser spin column. The sample is then applied to a HiBind® spin column. Cellular debris and other contaminants such as haemoglobin are effectively washed away and high-quality RNA is finally eluted in DEPC treated water.
