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.

Application

Extract-N-Amp tissue PCR kit has been used for DNA extraction and polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

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

Components

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

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.

Articles

The Extract-N-Amp™ Tissue PCR Kit has been created to release PCR-ready DNA from mouse tails in a 15 minute single tube procedure. The included 2x PCR mix is optimized to work with the crude extracts and the solutions in the kit

Standard methods for extracting DNA from tissues can be extremely laborious and time consuming. Certain applications, such as genotyping of transgenic mice using a section of tail, employ a lengthy DNA extraction process.

The availability of simple methods for purification of DNA and RNA has greatly facilitated the analysis and characterization of the genome and gene expression. There is a demand to isolate DNA and RNA rapidly and conveniently from a variety of cellular sources, including cells and tissues from mammalian, plant and bacterial cultures.

Protocols

The Extract-N-Amp™ Tissue PCR Kit contains all the reagents needed to rapidly extract and amplify genomic DNA from mouse tails and other animal tissues, buccal swabs, hair shafts, and saliva.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
