- Challenges in DNA Extraction from Blood Samples:
- High Infectious Risk: Blood samples pose a significant infectious hazard to operators and the environment.
- Complex DNA Source: Blood DNA contains various types such as mitochondrial, genomic, and circulating DNA, leading to potential loss during extraction.
- Presence of Impurities: Blood samples contain impurities and inhibitory factors that can interfere with DNA extraction and downstream applications.
- Existing Extraction Methods:
- Phenol-chloroform extraction, salting out, etc.
- These methods typically involve pre-treatment steps to remove red blood cells and isolate white blood cells, which may result in loss of nucleic acid information.
- Product Benefits:
- Fast and Easy Purification: Provides a rapid and straightforward method for total DNA purification.
- Suitability: Purifies total DNA (genomic, viral, mitochondrial) from whole blood, tissue, and cultured cells.
- Application: Ensures reliable DNA for PCR and Southern blotting assays.

Principle
- Cell Breakdown: Your sample is lysed (broken open) and digested with enzymes to release DNA into solution.
- Capture: The mixture is passed through a silica column. DNA sticks to the silica membrane, while proteins and other impurities don’t.
- Washing Away Impurities: The column is washed to remove any remaining proteins and other unwanted molecules.
- DNA Release: Pure DNA is eluted (washed off) the silica membrane with a special buffer solution. This purified DNA is then ready for further analysis.
Advantages
- High-quality DNA – meets a variety of downstream applications, including PCR, qPCR, enzyme digestion, hybridization, etc.

Storage and Stability
Storage Recommendations:
- Proteinase K and RNase A: Upon arrival, store at 2-8°C. Short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15-25°C) is acceptable without affecting performance.
- Remaining Kit Components: Can be stored at room temperature (15-25°C) and remain stable for at least 18 months under these conditions.
