Using isotachophoresis as a novel method to improve the yield and quality of nucleic acid purification from FFPE samples
29 Apr 2021To compare the performance of the Purigen Ionic system, DNA from 32 FFPE tissue blocks was purified with both the Ionic system and a commercially available column-based purification kit for FFPE samples. In this poster, Purigen assessed the quantity and quality of the purified DNA with the Qiagen MRef multicopy reference assay and the Agilent Technologies QC Plex Assay.

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.
