Comparison of the sbeadex® Forensic Kit with Three Other Chemistries used in Forensic Labs

30 Apr 2013

Crime scene samples come in a large variety of types and substrates and so present a challenge to any chemistry and methodology seeking to use a standard approach to extracting DNA. Furthermore, these samples may contain impurities which could affect the downstream processes. Having a standardised method for the majority of samples will greatly simplify the processing and will allow for easier automation of the process. This application note compares three magnetic bead chemistries, which are fairly new on the market, to each other and to established chelex-based methods.
