DESCRIPTION The ZymoBIOMICS MagBead DNA/RNA kit provides a high-throughput, magnetic bead-based purification of both high-quality DNA and total RNA (including small/microRNAs) from the same starting sample. The provided DNA/RNA Shield inactivates infectious agents and is ideal for sample storage at ambient temperatures. The extraction method utilizes magnetic beads for DNA/RNA extraction without the use of phenol and is eluted into ≥50 µl of ZymoBIOMICS DNase/RNase-Free Water. DNA/RNA is ready for any downstream application including Next-Gen Sequencing, RT-qPCR, etc. HIGHLIGHTS Unbiased Lysis: Efficient and unbiased lysis of microbes including gram positive/negative bacteria, fungi, protozoans, and viruses from any sample including feces, soil, plant, water, biofilms, swabs, saliva, body fluids, etc. Ultra-Pure: High-quality DNA/RNA (including mall/microRNAs) are inhibitor-free and ready for RT/qPCR and microbiome measurements using Next-Gen sequencing. High Sensitivity: Increased detection limit of very low abundance organisms.
