Effortless, simultaneous nucleic acid extraction from DNA and RNA viruses … in minutes, not hours.
RNAGEM V uses MicroGEM’s novel thermophilic proteinase and buffer system to extract nucleic acids from viruses in less than 15 minutes without the need for purification.
Sample types: nasal-pharyngeal swabs in saline solution, nasal swabs, buccal swabs, and sputum/saliva
Key Advantages:
Simultaneous extraction from DNA and RNA viruses
Single tube extraction
No ionic detergents or chaotropic salts
No magnetic beads – No spin columns
High nucleic acid recovery – Minimal loss of nucleic acids during extraction
Flexibility – suitable for low-throughput to high-throughput extraction with a single protocol
Easily automated using standard liquid handling solutions
Minimal plasticware required – Reduced waste and supply chain issues
