XpressDNA Blood DNA Extraction kit allows rapid and robust purification of nucleic acids from blood samples. Our patented Magnetic nanoparticle technology ensures high quality isolation of DNA from blood with a starting blood volume of 0.2 – 0.4 ml. 1 µl of blood from blood clots can give a DNA yield of 73.3ng/µl. Our kit helps in overcoming the time-consuming and limiting conventional methods with our optimized protocol for a quick and reproducible extraction with better yields. DNA extracted using XpressDNA Blood DNA Extraction kit is amenable for all downstream applications such as PCR, Real time PCR, Restriction digestion, Sanger sequencing, NGS and Southern blotting.

This kit can be used for extraction of DNA from:

• Fresh, frozen, or aged blood
• Blood stored in different storage vials (EDTA, citrate, heparin and fluoride)
• PBMCs
• Umbilical cord blood
• Blood clot

XpressDNA Blood Kit Highlights

• No phenol extraction required along with minimal centrifugation steps
• Gives good results even with blood clot/ aged blood/ blood spots
• The kit is compatible with any type of vacutainer (Citrate/EDTA/fluoride/heparin tubes)
• No need for mechanical lysis
• The purified genomic DNA displays improved performance in downstream applications.
