Buccal Swab （FTA Card）DNA Isolation Kit

Description

Buccal Swab FTA Card DNA Isolation Kit provides an efficient and rapid method to obtain high-concentration genomic DNA from buccal swabs and FTA Card (blood spots). Using our company’s unique DNA-only silica membrane spin column and formula, combined with Foregene Protease, high-concentration, high-quality genomic DNA can be extracted in 80 minutes. The specially designed small purification column binds genomic DNA, and the DNA can be eluted with a small amount (15μl) elution system to increase the concentration of the obtained genomic DNA, which is convenient for downstream detection or experiment. The kit can process one or more samples at a time, and the purification process does not require extraction of organic substances such as phenol, chloroform, and time-consuming isopropanol or ethanol precipitation, and the operation is simple and time-saving.

The DNA-only silica gel membrane used in the spin column of this kit is a unique new material of the company, which efficiently and specifically adsorbs DNA, and can remove RNA, impurity proteins, ions and other organic compounds in cells to the greatest extent. The obtained DNA fragments are large, with high purity, stable and reliable quality, and the maximum carrying capacity of a spin column is 80 μg DNA. The obtained DNA can be used for molecular biology experiments such as restriction digestion, PCR, Southern hybridization, library construction and so on.

Features

• No RNase contamination: The DNA-Only Column provided by the kit makes it possible to remove RNA from genomic DNA without adding RNase during the experiment, avoiding the laboratory from being contaminated by exogenous RNase.

• Fast speed: Foregene Protease has higher activity than similar proteases, digests samples quickly; simple operation.

• Convenient: The centrifugation is performed at room temperature, and there is no need for 4°C low-temperature centrifugation or ethanol precipitation of DNA.

• Safety: No organic reagent extraction is required.

• High quality: The extracted genomic DNA has large fragments, no RNA, no RNase, and extremely low ion content, which can meet the requirements of various experiments.

• Micro-elution system: It can increase the concentration of genomic DNA, which is convenient for downstream detection or experiment.

Application

The genomic DNA purified by the Buccal Swab/FTA Card DNA Isolation Kit has high purity and can be used for routine molecular biology operations, such as: restriction enzyme digestion, PCR, Southern hybridization, library construction and other experiments.

Storage 

• Buccal Swab FTA Card DNA Isolation Kit can be stored for 12 months under dry conditions at room temperature (15-25°C); if it needs to be stored for a longer period of time, it can be stored at 2-8°C.

  Note: If stored at low temperature, the solution is prone to precipitation. Before use, be sure to place the solution in the kit at room temperature for a period of time. If necessary, preheat it in a 37°C water bath for 10 minutes to dissolve the precipitate, and mix it before use.

• Foregene Protease solution has a unique formula, which is active when stored at room temperature for a long time (3 months); its activity and stability will be better when stored at 4°C, so it is recommended to store it at 4°C, remember not to keep it at -20°C.
