This product overview details the many benefits of MicroGEM’s RNAGEM V extraction kit. RNAGEM V utilizes MicroGEM’s novel thermophilic proteinase and buffer system to extract nucleic acids from viruses in less than 15 minutes without the need for purification.

Key advantages:

  • Nucleic acid extraction in less than 15 minutes
  • Simultaneous extraction from DNA and RNA viruses
  • Single-tube extraction
  • No ionic detergents or chaotropic salts
  • High nucleic acid recovery – Minimal loss of nucleic acids during extraction
  • No magnetic beads – No spin-columns
  • 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
