Selective Enrichment of Bacterial and Fungal DNA

22 Nov 2018

MolYsis™ is a tool for the removal of human DNA and enrichment of bacteria and fungi from liquid samples. Technically, in a short series of steps, MolYsis™ effects the selective lysis of blood cells and the quantitative degradation (>99%) of released human DNA. After enrichment from the lysate by centrifugation, microorganisms are treated with a reagent degrading cell walls of Grampositive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi. The broad range lysis potential has been shown in clinical evaluations, including over 200 genera of bacteria (86 Grampositives, 120 Gram-negatives) and 65 genera of fungi.

DNA / RNA Extraction and PurificationPurified DNA and RNA are required for numerous downstream molecular biology applications. Consequently, the importance of high-quality DNA/RNA extraction and purification equipment cannot be underestimated. Many purification kits are available and are typically optimized for nucleic acid type and source, including plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, mRNA, RNA and viral nucleic acid purification kits. Automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids can be implemented with magnetic bead separator instruments or high-throughput purification workstations.
