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.

The tissue direct PCR kit is a buffer system for direct PCR from animal tissue and cultured cells that effectively lyses the tissue and neutralises inhibitors. The kit requires as little as 5 to 10 mg of tissue.

The E.Z.N.A.® bacterial DNA kit allows the rapid and reliable isolation of high quality total cellular DNA from a wide variety of bacterial species. This kit uses optimised lysis condition and up to 1×10⁹ bacterial cells can be processed for each column. There are no organic extractions, thus reducing plastic waste and hands on time to allow multiple samples to be processed in parallel. Bacterial cells are grown to log-phase and harvested. The cell wall is removed by lysozyme digestion and bead beating, followed by protease digestion. Following lysis, binding conditions are adjusted and the sample is applied to a HiBind DNA spin-column. Two rapid wash steps remove trace salts and protein contaminants, and DNA is finally eluted in water or elution buffer. Purified DNA can be directly used in downstream applications without the need for further purification.

The Mag-Bind® oligonucleotide purification kit is designed for the purification of small size DNA fragments (larger than 10 bp) with a 60 to 70% recovery rate. By using the highly efficient binding ability of Mag-Bind® technology, oligonucleotides are selectively bound to the surface of Mag-Bind® particles. Salts and other impurities are washed away with two quick wash steps. Purified oligouncleotide are eluted with deionised water or elution buffer and ready for downstream applications.

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.

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.® 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.

RNA-Solv® Reagent is a one reagent system for the isolation of total RNA from cells and tissues. The reagent, a single-phase solution consisting of phenol and guanidine isothiocyanate, is a modification of the single-step RNA isolation method developed by Chomczynski and Sacchi. The sample is homogenised and lysed in RNA-Solv® Reagent, which maintains the integrity of the RNA while disrupting and denaturing endogenous RNases and other cellular components. Extraction of the lysate with chloroform further denatures proteins and separates the mixture into an organic and an aqueous phase. RNA remains exclusively in the aqueous phase, and is subsequently recovered by isopropanol.

For DNase digestion during RNA purification. The RNase-free DNase set provides a rapid and efficient on-column digestion of DNA during RNA purification from a wide variety of sample sources using E.Z.N.A.® RNA kits. The DNases can be efficiently removed in subsequent steps. Generally, DNase digestion is not required for RNA purified with E.Z.N.A.® RNA kits since the silica-membrance, spin-column technology efficiently removes the majority of the DNA without DNase treatment. However, complete DNA removal may be necessary for certain RNA applications that are sensitive to very small amounts of DNA.

The E.Z.N.A.® Bacterial RNA kit is designed for isolation of high-quality total RNA from variety of bacterial strains. Up to 1×10⁹ log-phase bacterial cells can be processed. This kit uses an improved lysis procedure to ensure the complete lysis of bacterial cells. Purified RNA is suitable for downstream applications such as RT-PCR and hybridisation techniques.

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.

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.

Selected protease digestion releases microgram amounts of RNA from FFPE samples. The purified nucleic acids, although highly fragmented, are suitable for a variety of downstream genomic and gene expression analyses. E.Z.N.A® spin column-based kits are ideal for low throughput applications while Mag-Bind® magnetic beads-based kits are designed specifically for high throughput users with automation capability.
