innuPREP Water DNA Kit (large) - PP Mini

In the first step, the water sample is concentrated through a process known as Target Concentration Technology (TCT), which reduces the sample volume from 500 ml to 30-50 ml. No filtration step is necessary. In a second step, the technique Polymer Mediated Enrichment (PME) improves the capture and concentration of target biomolecules. PME selectively attracts and binds specific biomolecules such as viruses, bacteriophages, bacteria, environmental DNA (eDNA), algae, and other microorganisms or molecules of interest allowing them to pellet by a centrifugation step. The pellets are then processed first using a mechanical Lysis Tube in combination of a Grinder to get bacteria prelysed and for extraction of DNA/ RNA the PurePrep Mini device has to be used.

The combination of these technologies enables the efficient extraction of genetic material from low or even trace concentrations of target biomolecules present in large water samples. The extracted DNA/RNA is of sufficient quality for a broad spectrum of downstream applications, including amplification reactions and various analytical procedures.
