Principle

Magnetic-bead based isolation of genomic DNA from forensic samples (e.g. buccal swabs, dried blood spots, cigarette filters)

NucleoMag® 96 Trace is designed for the purification of DNA from forensic samples (e.g., buccal swabs, dried blood spots, cigarette filters). After lysis of the sample genomic DNA is selectively bound to the NucleoMag® Beads. Contaminants are washed away and the DNA can be eluted from the beads under low-salt conditions. As the magnetic bead technology provides a closed system (no transfer of sample from one well to another is necessary during the preparation) the risk for cross-contamination is reduced. The NucleoMag® technology can be easily adapted to common laboratory automation platforms. It can be used either with static-pin separators (e.g., NucleoMag® SEP) or magnetic separators integrated into robotic workstations. For more information on adapting any NucleoMag® product to your workstation please contact your local distributor or MN directly.
