Mag-Bind® FFPE DNA/RNA 96 Kit

Mag-Bind^® FFPE DNA/RNA 96 Kit is designed for the sequential isolation of DNA and RNA in separate eluates from the same formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sample. The purification of DNA and RNA from the same sample enables a more comprehensive analysis from a precious sample source. The protocol utilizes a specially formulated buffer system that not only partially reverses the formaldehyde-induced crosslinking but also ensures DNA and RNA are differentially purified with no cross-contamination. The kit can also be used for purification of only DNA or only RNA from FFPE samples if sequential isolation is not desired. Magnetic bead-based extraction makes it suitable for both manual as well as automated processing. Purified DNA and RNA are suitable for a variety of downstream applications including SNP analysis, next generation sequencing, and genotyping.
