Features
Innovative
AquaGenomic is
a multi-functional aqueous solution for genomic DNA isolation
and purification. It achieves cell lysis, DNA extraction, and
debris removal in a single step.
Simple
Add
AquaGenomic solution to lyse the cells, extract the DNA, and
precipitate the cell debris, and then add isopropanol to
precipitate the purified genomic DNA.
Easy
No columns, no
resins, no slurries, no beads, no filters, no membranes, no
needles, no cartridges, no manifolds, no multiple solutions and
buffers.
Nontoxic
No phenol, no
chloroform, no isoamylacohol, no saturated butanol, no guanidine
hydrochloride.
Fast
Two minutes
to lyse cells and extract DNA, four minutes to pellet cell
debris, two minutes to pellet DNA. From cells or tissues, to DNA
in ~15 minutes.
Pure
A260/A280 of
the isolated genomic DNA is 1.6-1.8. The genomic DNA
is free from enzyme inhibitors.
Flexible
One
AquaGenomic Kit can be used to isolate DNA from cultured cells,
buccal swabs, blood, bacteria, animal or plant tissues. No need
to purchase different kits for different starting materials.
Scalable
One single
AquaGenomic Kit does all: mini, midi, or maxi. No need to
purchase separate mini, midi, or maxi kits.
High
Yield
About 5-10 ug
of DNA can be isolated from
from 1-2
million cultured cells, 200 ul of whole blood, 15 mg of feces, 1
ml of bacterial cultures, 5-10 mg of animal tissues, or 10-20 mg
of plant tissues.
Economic
AquaGenomic
is priced at $199/kit for 300 minipreps, that is $0.66/miniprep
or 1/4 of the price of other genomic DNA isolation kits.

Comparison of genomic DNA isolated from
different mouse tissues by AquaGenomic. Approximately 10 mg of
tissue or 100 ul of blood were processed using the AquaGenomic
Kit. Final genomic DNA was suspended in 50 ul deionized water. Five-microliter
of each prep was run in a 1% agarose gel.
