Getting High Yields of gDNA from Plant Samples; MACHEREY-NAGEL and Tecan

Plant research is often geared towards crop improvement, and focuses on yield and robustness to pathogens and other stress factors, such as heat or draught. It is often necessary to sequence the genome, creating the need for purification of high quantities of gDNA. MACHEREY-NAGEL has developed the NucleoSpin Plant II Midi kit to meet the demand for efficient purification of high quality DNA from a variety of plants and fungi. This application note presents a flexible automated solution for the isolation of plant genomic DNA without compromising yield or purity; a result of Tecan and MACHEREY-NAGEL have joining forces.
