PuroMAG™ Gel Extraction Kit, Magnetic

The PuroMAG™ Gel Extraction Kit is designed to provide a simple and easy-to-use method for extraction and purification of DNA samples (100 bp − 10 kbp) from agarose gels.

This purification technology is based on dissolving the gel embedded DNA in a buffer solution, followed by nucleic acid binding to silica-coated magnetic beads. Magnetic separation is than used to efficiently remove gel residues, salts and other contaminants.

The PuroMAG™ buffer formulations produce highly purified DNA for downstream applications such as PCR, restriction-enzyme digestion, ligation, labeling, or sequencing.

The kit can be used in manual or automated high-throughput formats. The high-throughput protocols have been optimized for Auto-Pure Nucleic Acid Purification systems, but can be adapted for other purification systems (i.e. Kingfisher Flex, Hamilton Microlab STAR, Biomek FX, etc.). Manual extraction can be performed using Luna Nanotech's 8-Position Mini Magnetic Rack (Cat# MGR-008) or 16-Position Mini Magnetic Rack (Cat# MGR-016).
