Product Description
The Zymo Research DNA Clean & Concentrator™-100 D4030 is the 50-preparation large-capacity DNA cleanup and concentration kit — the high-volume format in the DCC-100 line, designed for rapid desalting and purification of up to 100µg of high-quality DNA from PCR, large format restriction endonuclease digestions, or cell-free lysates. Supplied with the unique Zymo-Spin™ V Column with Reservoir — a large-format spin column with an integrated reservoir accommodating sample volumes up to 15mL for loading without requiring multiple reload steps. Simple, rapid recovery of ultra-pure DNA from PCR, endonuclease digestions, and cell-free DNA preps. Unique column construction allows sample loading and washing to be performed using a centrifuge, microcentrifuge, vacuum source, or syringe. Eluted DNA is well suited for use in PCR, DNA sequencing, DNA ligation, endonuclease digestion, RNA transcription, and radiolabeling. 50 preparations. Catalog # D4030. The 25-preparation version is available as D4029.
D4030 vs. D4029 — Choosing the Right Kit Size: The D4030 and D4029 are identical DNA Clean & Concentrator™-100 kits in every way — the number of preparations and reagent volumes are the sole differences:
| D4030 | D4029 | |
|---|---|---|
| Preparations | 50 | 25 |
| DNA Binding Buffer | 2×100mL | 100mL |
| DNA Wash Buffer | 48mL | 24mL |
| DNA Elution Buffer | 10mL | 10mL |
| Zymo-Spin™ V Columns | 50 | 25 |
| Collection Tubes | 50 | 25 |
| Best For | High-volume labs, routine large-scale cleanup | Standard labs, evaluation |
The D4030 is the preferred choice for labs and core facilities that routinely perform large-scale DNA purification — eliminating the frequent reordering cycles required with the 25-prep D4029 and providing a lower per-prep reagent cost for established, high-volume workflows.
The DCC-100 — Built for Large-Scale DNA Cleanup The DNA Clean & Concentrator™-100 occupies a critical and distinct position in the Zymo Research DCC family — designed specifically for large-scale DNA purification where the standard DCC-5 (up to 5µg) or DCC-25 (up to 25µg) formats are insufficient:
| Kit | Max DNA | Elution Vol. | Best For | Cat. # |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DCC-5 | 5µg | ≥6µL | PCR cleanup, small reactions | D4003/D4013 |
| DCC-25 | 25µg | ≥25µL | Mid-scale reactions | D4005 |
| DCC-100 | 100µg | ≥150µL | Large-scale PCR, restriction digests, cell-free lysates | D4029/D4030 |
| DCC-500 | 500µg | ≥1mL | Preparative-scale purification | D4031 |
Zymo-Spin™ V Column with Reservoir — 15mL Large-Volume Loading The Zymo-Spin™ V Column with Reservoir accommodates sample volumes up to 15mL per load without requiring multiple centrifugation cycles — dramatically simplifying the loading step for large-volume samples such as large-scale PCR reaction pools, large restriction digest volumes, and cell-free lysate preparations. The column is also compatible with vacuum manifolds and syringe-based loading — providing flexibility for labs with different equipment setups.
Up to 100µg DNA Per Prep — Large-Scale Purification at High Volume Up to 100µg total DNA can be eluted with ≥150µL of low-salt DNA Elution Buffer or water — 20× the capacity of the standard DCC-5. The D4030 delivers this large-capacity purification consistently across all 50 preparations — making it the highest-throughput format in the DCC-100 line for labs running large-scale DNA cleanup routinely.
DNA Size Range — 50bp to 23kb DNA Size Limits — from ~50bp to 23kb. The DCC-100 recovers DNA fragments across the full range of standard molecular biology applications — from short PCR amplicons through large restriction digest fragments, plasmid linearization products, and large DNA constructs used in cloning and genomics workflows.
High Purity DNA — A260/A280 ≥1.8 DNA Purity — High-quality DNA (A260/A280 ≥1.8) ideal for ligation, sequencing, labeling, PCR, microarray, transfection, transformation, and restriction digestion procedures. The consistently high purity is maintained across all 50 preparations of the D4030 — ensuring reliable downstream application performance throughout the full kit lifetime.
Multiple Loading Methods — Centrifuge, Vacuum, or Syringe Unique column construction allows sample loading and washing to be performed using a centrifuge, microcentrifuge, vacuum source, or syringe. The flexible loading options of the DCC-100 are preserved across the full 50-preparation D4030 kit — compatible with essentially any laboratory equipment configuration.
Less Than 20 Minutes — Complete Purification at Scale The entire DNA purification/concentration procedure typically takes less than 20 minutes — maintained consistently across all 50 preparations of the D4030. For high-volume labs processing multiple large-format samples per day, the consistent sub-20-minute protocol allows accurate throughput scheduling.
Room Temperature Storage — All Kit Components All kit components stored at room temperature — simplifying storage of the larger D4030 reagent volumes compared to the D4029. Note: Ethanol must be added to DNA Wash Buffer concentrate prior to use as indicated on the label.
