E.Z.N.A.® Plasmid Midi Kit offers a novel and reliable method of isolating up to 200 µg of plasmid DNA in less than 60 minutes. This kit combines HiBind® membrane technology with the time-tested consistency of alkaline SDS lysis of bacterial cells to deliver high-quality plasmid DNA. The DNase/RNase-free HiBind® DNA midi columns operate by eliminating time consuming phenol-chloroform extractions and alcohol precipitations. Plasmid purification using the E.Z.N.A.® Plasmid Midi Kit follows a simple bind-wash-elute procedure thereby making it possible for multiple samples to be processed. Although yields vary according to plasmid copy number, E.coli strain, and conditions of growth, 50 ml of an overnight culture in LB medium will typically produce 200 µg of high-copy number plasmid DNA. When working with low-copy number plasmids the starting culture volume can be increased up to 100 ml. High-quality DNA is ready for immediate use in routine molecular biology applications, such as automated fluorescent sequencing, restriction enzyme digestion, and transfection screening.

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.

E.Z.N.A.® MicroElute Total RNA Kit provides a rapid and easy method for the isolation of up to 50 µg of total RNA from small amounts of cultured eukaryotic cells, tissues such as as laser dissected samples (LDS) or fine needle aspirates(FNA). Normally, up to 5×10⁵ eukaryotic cells or 5 mg tissue can be used in a single experiment depending on the type of tissue used. This kit allows processing of single or multiple of samples in less than 30 minutes. There is no need for phenol/chloroform extractions, and time-consuming steps such as CsCl gradient ultracentrifuation, and precipitation with isopropanol or LiCl. Purified RNA can be eluted with 10 to 15 µl nuclease-free water. Purified RNA is ready for most downstream applications such as RT-PCR, Northern blotting, Poly A+ purification, nuclease protection and invitro translation.

The E.Z.N.A.® tissue DNA kit offers a simple, rapid, and cost effective method for the isolation of DNA from a wide variety of sample sources including fresh or frozen animal cells and tissues. After cell lysis, the DNA purification process can be completed in less than 30 minutes. Up to 30 mg of tissue at a time can be readily processed at a time using the simple E.Z.N.A.® tissue DNA protocol. Single or multiple samples can be simultaneously processed with this spin-column based kit. There is no need for phenol/chloroform extractions, or time-consuming steps such as precipitation with isopropanol or ethanol. DNA purified using the E.Z.N.A.® tissue DNA kit is ready for most downstream applications such as PCR, southern blot and restriction enzyme digestion.

The E.Z.N.A.® blood DNA kit provides rapid total DNA isolation from up to 250 µl of fresh or frozen anticoagulated whole blood. The E.Z.N.A.® blood DNA kit can also be used for the preparation of genomic DNA from buffy coat, serum, plasma, bone marrow, lymphocytes, platelets, and body fluids. This kit allows for simultaneous processing of single or multiple samples in less than 30 minutes. Phenol/chloroform extractions, and time-consuming steps such as precipitation with isopropanol or ethanol have been eliminated. DNA purified with the E.Z.N.A.® blood DNA method is ready for applications such as PCR, southern blotting, or restriction enzyme digestion.

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.

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 BIO-TEK

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.

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.® 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.® 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 E.Z.N.A.® Water DNA kit is formulated to isolate high purity cellular DNA from water samples typically containing humic acid and inhibitors of PCR. This kit has been successfully used to isolate DNA from tough-to-lyse bacteria, fungi, and algae that inhabit a range of samples including tap water, lake, river and sewage samples. Isolated DNA can be used for most downstream applications including PCR, Southern blotting, SNP analysis.
