Extraction Kits / Environmental Monitoring

Efficient kits for the study of environmental samples.

Concentrate and purify nucleic acids from challenging environmental matrices, from influent wastewater with heavy sludge to topsoil and compost, for microbial and pathogen detection by qPCR, qRT-PCR, and NGS.

magnetiQ Kit

Soil DNA Extraction Kit

Rapid, straightforward nucleic acid isolation from soil matrices including topsoil, sand, compost, and manure, with extraction and purification completed within 20 minutes.

Higher gDNA yield & purity Quick 15 min protocol Effortless magnetic extractions Single-step lysis and DNA capture

Benefits

  • Highly efficient capture/elution with minimal protein and salt contamination
  • High DNA & RNA recovery and quality of varying sizes
  • Short and scalable protocol
  • Rapid and cost-effective
  • Non-toxic chemicals
  • Automatable on open liquid handling systems

Applications

  • Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)
  • PCR and qPCR gene amplification
  • Southern Blot

Performance

The Soil DNA Extraction Kit performs better than widely used industry-leading kits. A high quantity of DNA is extracted from various soil microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and algae, resulting in lower CT values, while eliminating PCR inhibitors from up to 250 g of soil sample.
