Application

Extract-N-Amp^™ tissue PCR kit has been used for genomic DNA extraction from mouse tail biopsies and polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Components

Kits contain Tissue Preparation Solution, Extraction Solution, and Extract-N-Amp PCR Reaction Mix.

Features and Benefits

Fast – rapid extraction of genomic DNA for PCR in 15 minutes Convenient – no long enzymatic digestions or column purification required Practical – perfect for quick genomic DNA isolation for genotyping Flexible – protocols available for mouse-tails, hair, animal tissue, saliva, and buccal swabs Specific – Hot start antibody for highly specific PCR amplification of genomic DNA Extract stable at 4 ^oC for at least 6 months

General description

The Extract-N-Amp^™ Tissue PCR Kits provide all the reagents necessary to rapidly extract DNA from a wide variety of cells and tissues and amplify targets of interest by direct PCR (polymerase chain reaction) . A novel extraction method eliminates the need for long enzymatic digestions or homogenization. The kit also includes a specially formulated hot start PCR ReadyMix^™ for amplification directly from the extract.

Principle

The kit contains validated protocols to extract and amplify genomic DNA from mouse-tails, hair, animal tissue, saliva, and buccal swabs. In a typical procedure, genomic DNA is extracted from a sample that has been incubated in the tissue preparation solution and extraction solution for 10 minutes at room temperature. The sample is heated to 95 °C for 3 minutes and then mixed with a third solution to neutralize inhibitory substances prior to PCR. A portion of the DNA extract is then added to a PCR reaction containing primers and Extract-N-Amp PCR ReadyMix, included in the kit.
