SPEEDTOOLS FOOD DNA Extraction Kit

Genomic DNA is purified from food and feed of animal and plant origin. The kit has been successfully used for the purification of DNA from GMOs and from food or feed of animal origin.

The lysis buffer provided with the kit has been tested for the different samples listed in the following table:

Positive Tested Samples

FOOD of plant origin: 

• Raw products: maize, soya, rape, etc. (powder or oil)
• Chocolate products, cocoa, nougat products 
• Breakfast cereals, muesli, nut/chocolate spread
• Jam and fruit concentrates
• Bread, cookies, cakes and biscuits

• Vitamins (e.g. pills)
• Plant and animal ingredients in creams or powders

Bacteria:

• Starter Cultures

The obtained DNA is ready to use in subsequent reactions like PCR, Real Time PCR, GMOs detection, hybridization, and other downstream applications.

Advantages:

• Easy-to-use protocol
• Phenol free method and non ethanol precipitation 
• Binding step reversible and specific to nucleic acids
• High quality DNA free of PCR inhibitors
• DNA ready-to-use in less than 35 min /6 preps
• Small DNA fragments (30-300 bp) can be purified from complex food matrices
• Suitable for a great variety of food and feed material
