Product Description
Humic acids, polyphenols, and other inhibitors in stool and soil can derail PCR even when DNA yield looks good. This extraction kit is built to deliver inhibitor-free, PCR-quality DNA from both host cells and resident microbes, so microbiome and environmental assays produce dependable results. It is a practical choice for routine microbiome work.
This listing is for catalog number D6010: Quick-DNA Fecal/Soil Microbe DNA MiniPrep Kit, 50 Preps. Samples from humans, birds, rats, mice, cattle, and other animals are lysed by bead beating with BashingBeads. DNA is bound and purified on a Zymo-Spin column and then passed through a filter that removes humic acids and polyphenols that can inhibit PCR. Eluted DNA supports PCR, arrays, genotyping, and methylation detection. The kit contains 50 preps. Order it from LIGHT LABS and keep your workflow moving.
Key Features
- Inhibitor removal – Post-purification filtration removes humic acids and polyphenols.
- Host and microbe DNA – Recovers DNA from host cells and microorganisms.
- Bead beating lysis – High-density BashingBeads disrupt samples efficiently.
- Broad sample sources – Suitable for human, bird, rodent, cattle, and other samples.
- Fast protocol – The procedure can be completed in minutes.
