Product Description
Extracting bacterial DNA presents several challenges due to the diverse and complex nature of bacterial cell walls, contamination risks, and the need for high-quality DNA for downstream applications. Microzone’s MAGneat gDNA extraction kit addresses these challenges by providing efficient lysis, high DNA purity, and streamlined workflows, making bacterial DNA extraction faster, more reliable and efficient.
Protocol
Bacterial DNA extraction starts by centrifuging sample to pellet cells. Lysis is achieved by addition of Lysis Buffer and Proteinase K mastermix, followed by homogenisation using bead-beating technology. After centrifugation, DNA binds to MAGneat magnetic beads in the presence of the Binding Buffer, allowing efficient DNA recovery. Wash steps remove impurities and contaminants before elution with DNA elution buffer. Following a final magnetic separation, the purified DNA is then collected for downstream applications.
