The Mag-Bind® Viral DNA/RNA Kit is designed for rapid and reliable isolation of viral DNA and RNA from cell-free samples such as serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, and other biological samples such as swabs, aspirates, etc. The Mag-Bind® paramagnetic bead technology is optimized for the recovery of low viral titer and provides high-quality viral DNA or RNA suitable for direct use in most downstream applications such as RT-PCR, PCR, and other enzymatic reactions. The extraction methodology is easily adaptable to various automated systems and can be scaled up or down depending on the amount of starting material used. The kit is not designed to separate cellular DNA from viral nucleic acids and cellular nucleic acid will be co-purified if present.
Protocols are available for the following automated platforms:
- Hamilton Microlab® STAR
- Hamilton Microlab® NIMBUS
- KingFisher™, BioSprint®, and MagMAX® 96
- Adaptable to other liquid handling platforms
