PRINCIPLE

DNA purification procedure consists of five steps and utilizes spin minicolumns with membranes which efficiently and selectively bind nucleic acids. During the first step, cell walls, membranes and proteins are degraded by lysis buffer and Proteinase K. To obtain an RNA-free DNA sample, RNA is removed by RNase A. After addition of chaotropic salts, lysate is applied to purification column membrane and DNA is bound. A two-step washing stage effectively removes impurities and enzyme inhibitors. Purified DNA is eluted with the use of a low ionic strength buffer (Elution Buffer) or water (pH 7.0–9.0) and may be used directly in all downstream applications such as PCR, qPCR, Southern blotting, DNA sequencing, enzymatic restriction, DNA ligation and so forth, or stored until ready to use.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND IMPORTANT NOTES

Sample material DNA isolation efficiency and purity can depend not only on number of bacterial cells, cell type (morphology) or antibiotics in grow medium, but also on age andcondition  of the cells.
The kit is designed to isolate DNA from max. 3 x 109 bacterial cells. Using a greaternumber  of cells may significantly reduce isolation efficiency and purity of DNA. Extracting DNA from fresh starting material or frozen cell pellets is recommended. To minimize DNA degradation, avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles of samples. Using old or repeatedly frozen/thawed material may result in low efficiency isolation of high molecular DNA.

QUALITY CONTROL

The quality of each production batch (LOT) of EXTRACTME DNA BACTERIA KIT is tested using standard QC procedures. Purified DNA concentration and quality are evaluated by gel electrophoresis and spectrophotometer.
