Sox DNA Extraction Kit
Our Sox Soil DNA Kit employs patent-pending methodology of bead-beating, silica spin columns, and a unique combination of chemistry, resulting in exceptionally high yields of highly purified DNA.
Advantages
- Uses reagents that are less toxic than the traditional phenol-chloroform extraction
- Removes contaminants e.g. humic acids and compounds that inhibit PCR yielding high-quality DNA
- No organic solvents and proteinases are used
- The kit can be stored at room temperature
- Sox has been validated by successful extraction of DNA from diverse soil sample types followed by high-resolution rRNA gene and fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) profile analysis.
DNA is ready for downstream applications such as PCR.
See the figures below comparing the high quality and high quantity of DNA yields from the Sox DNA Extraction Kit.
