Reliable DNA yield DNA was purified from seven human ileum as well as human stomach FFPE samples and quantified with Quantifiler® Human DNA Quantification Kit. A DNA yield of approximately 0.3 μg from ileum and 1.7 μg from stomach could be obtained with NucleoSpin® 96 DNA FFPE kit. |
Consistent PCR performance Genomic DNA was isolated with the NucleoSpin® 96 DNA FFPE kit from mouse liver, lung, muscle, and kidney samples (eight FFPE samples each). The purified DNA was quantified with MaximaTM SYBR® Green qPCR Master Mix (amplicon size 100 bp) resulting in reliable CT values indicating consistent DNA yields. |
