Robust yields and excellent performance in downstream applications
DNA was isolated from fresh 200 μL human blood samples (n=12) using the NucleoMag® Blood 200 μL kit on an epMotion® 5073m workstation. The DNA concentration of all 12 samples was determined by UV spectroscopy, dark blue bars). Performance in downstream applications was evaluated by con‑ ducting qPCR for a 250 bp sequence in the ß-actin gene. The target sequence was successfully amplified in all samples (orange squares = CT values).
Highly pure nucleic acids from human blood samples
DNA was isolated from fresh 200 μL human blood samples (n=12) using the NucleoMag Blood 200 μL kit on a epMotion® 5073m workstation. The purity was determined by UV spectroscopy. DNA quality analysis resulted in an average A260/A280 value of 1.92 +/- 0.02 and in an average A260/A230 value of 1.86 +/- 0.06.
NucleoMag technology can be easily adapted to common laboratory automation platforms
NucleoMag technology can be easily adapted to common laboratory automation platforms. It can be used either with static-pin separators (e.g., NucleoMag SEP) or magnetic separators integrated into robotic workstations.
