About MagBeads FastDNA Kit for FFPE
MagBeads FastDNA Kit for FFPE is based on the purification method of high binding magnetic particles. The sample is lysed and digested. DNA is released into the lysate. After addition of magnetic particles and binding solution, DNA will be adsorbed on the surface of magnetic particles, and impurities such as proteins will be removed without adsorption. The adsorbed particles were washed with washing buffer to remove the proteins and impurities, washed with ethanol to remove salts, and finally the DNA was eluted with Elution Buffer.
Efficient DNA Extraction from FFPE TissuesThe MagBeads FastDNA Kit for FFPE offers a fast, reliable solution for isolating DNA from paraffin-embedded tissue samples. The extraction process is completed in under an hour, making it ideal for laboratories seeking efficient workflow and reproducible results. Magnetic bead technology ensures high yields from challenging FFPE samples while maintaining DNA integrity suitable for a range of applications.
Flexible and Automated WorkflowDesigned for high-throughput environments, the kit features flexible elution volumes and is fully compatible with automated systems. Whether handling a few or dozens of samples, this format caters to diverse throughput needs. Its intuitive protocol supports scalability while ensuring minimal manual intervention, enhancing productivity and consistency across experiments.
