Utilizing a novel cocktail of enzymes which require no columns, no magnetic beads and do not expose the laboratory technician to toxic substances, eXymes Bacterial DNA prep kits are suitable for processing gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria, protozoa, archaea, colonies and liquid cultures, biofilm and mucosal samples, swabs, and metagenomic DNA including soil, stool and water
Uses your laboratory thermal cycler to produce single-stranded DNA suitable for PCR, qPCR, targeted sequencing (amplicon sequencing) from metagenomic samples, 16S rDNA sequencing.
- Rapid workflow- 1/4th the time taken by other methods
- Easily automated for high throughput
- Closed system- no cross contamination and protection against pathogens
- Gentle lysis with no transfer steps- preserves DNA and improves community representation in metagenomic samples
- Minimal handling and pipetting of samples- DNA is exceptionally intact and high molecular weight – perfect for long read nanopore sequencing
- Can be easily adapted to different sample types and workflows
