Extraction Kits / Food & Agriculture
Versatile kits for food safety & agricultural research.
From soil and plant tissue to RNA workflows, the magnetiQ family extracts high-quality nucleic acids in around 20 minutes, removing inhibitors and organic-solvent waste, ready for qPCR, NGS, and screening.
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.
Benefits
- Highly efficient capture/elution with minimal protein and salt contamination
- High DNA recovery and quality of varying sizes
- Short and scalable protocol
- Rapid and cost-effective
- Non-toxic chemicals
- Eliminates organic solvent hazardous waste
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.
It also produces high-quality DNA, eliminating PCR inhibitors from up to 250 g of soil sample.
