The Quick-DNA Fecal/Soil Microbe Miniprep Kit is
a fecal and soil DNA extraction kit designed for the simple and rapid isolation
of inhibitor-free, PCR-quality host cell and microbial DNA from a variety of
sample sources, including humans, birds, rats, mice, cattle, etc. The procedure
is easy and can be completed in minutes: fecal samples are rapidly and
efficiently lysed by bead beating with our state of the art, ultra-high density
BashingBeads. Zymo-Spin column technology is then used to isolate the DNA,
which is subsequently filtered to remove humic acids/polyphenols that can
inhibit PCR. Eluted DNA is ideal for downstream molecular-based applications
including PCR, arrays, genotyping, methylation detection, etc.
