Biofilm DNA Isolation Kit

Rapid and convenient method to isolate genomic DNA from different types of biofilm and biofilm-forming bacteria No phenol or chloroform extractions Yields high-quality DNA that is ready for PCR and other downstream applications Norgen’s Biofilm DNA Isolation Kit is designed for the rapid preparation of genomic DNA from biofilm. Genomic DNA is efficiently extracted from the biofilm by a combination of heat treatment, detergents, and the use of provided Bead Tubes. The kit is able to remove known PCR inhibitors typically found within the biofilm, including humic acid. The purified genomic DNA is fully digestible with all restriction enzymes tested and is completely compatible with downstream applications such as PCR and Southern Blot analysis. Preparation time for a single sample is less than 45 minutes, and each kit contains sufficient materials for 50 preparations.
