IBI Genomic DNA Kits (Plant)

The Genomic DNA Mini Kit for Plants provide a quick and easy method for purifying total DNA (including genomic DNA, mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA) from plant tissue. Samples are disrupted by both grinding in liquid nitrogen and lysis buffer incubation. The lysate is treated with RNase A to degrade RNA and then filtered to remove cell debris and salt precipitates. In the presence of the binding buffer, coupled with chaotropic salt, genomic DNA in the lysate binds to the glass fiber matrix of the spin column. Contaminants are removed using a Wash Buffer (containing ethanol) and the purified genomic DNA is eluted by a low salt Elution Buffer or TE. The procedure does not require DNA phenol extraction or alcohol precipitation, and can be completed in less than 1 hour. The purified genomic DNA is ready for use in PCR, Real-time PCR, Southern Blotting and RFLP.
