DNA isolation for the highest demands: Simple extraction & purification of nucleic acids

Kits and instruments that let you extract and purify DNA and RNA without centrifuging.

Innovative kits and automation solutions for your RNA & DNA extractions

Beckman Coulter’s extraction and purification kits let you benefit from the Solid Phase Reversible Immobilization (SPRI) technology. It involves the use of paramagnetic beads that selectively bind nucleic acids such as DNA and/or RNA according to type and size. For your work routines, this means that you do not have to centrifuge during DNA isolation or RNA extraction, neither must you carry out complex filtration steps. SPRI thus enables safe and high-performance isolation and purification protocols for demanding molecular biology applications including qPCR, ddPCR, Sanger sequencing, Next-Gen Sequencing (NGS) and microarrays.

In combination with one of the semi-automatic and/or automatic instrument solutions described below, you can efficiently clean up even the most difficult matrices while reducing error rates and achieving high yields.

This is how nucleic acid purification using SPRI works:

Step 1:
Immobilization of the nucleic acid. SPRI beads are added to the sample. Contained DNA or RNA binds selectively to the paramagnetic beads while impurities remain in the solution.

Step 2:
Purification/washing. A magnet pulls the microparticles out of the solution. The solution is discarded and the microparticles washed to obtain high purity nucleic acid.

Step 3:
Elution. The purified DNA or RNA is eluted under aqueous conditions, resulting in high-purity nucleic acids and maximum flexibility for your subsequent applications.

Beckman Coulter offers the optimal solution for any application:

  • DNA extraction and purification
  • RNA isolation and purification
  • Total nucleic acids (RNA and DNA isolation combined)
  • Dye terminator removal
  • Fragment size selection for NGS library construction
