forensicGEM Universal Product Overview
This product overview details the many benefits of MicroGEM’s forensicGEM Universal extraction kit. forensicGEM Universal kit utilizes MicroGEM’s novel thermophilic proteinase to offer a perfect solution for forensic sample processing where speed, sample size and sample integrity are critical.
Key advantages:
- Single-Tube DNA extraction in less than 15 minutes
- No need for inhibitory chemicals, such SDS, mercaptoethanol and DTT
- No transfer steps – yield is maximized and opportunities for mistakes and contamination are minimized
- High DNA recovery – Minimal loss of nucleic acids during extraction
- No magnetic beads – No spin-columns
- Reduced handling protects the integrity of the sample
- Flexibility – suitable for low-throughput to high-throughput extraction with a single protocol
- Easily automated using standard liquid handling solutions
- Minimal plasticware required – Reduced waste and supply chain issues
