The innuPREP Forensic Kit is a sophisticated tool optimized specifically for isolating genomic DNA from tiny samples and from highly contaminated forensic specimens.
Extraction has been successfully tested for a multitude of starting materials, such as blood, traces of blood, hair, hair roots, beard stubble, finger nails, postage stamps, cigarette butts, chewing gum, traces of sperm, swab samples and finger prints on a variety of surfaces. The novel extraction chemistry also allows for the recovery of severely degraded nucleic acids.
