General description
The REDExtract-N-Amp™ Tissue PCR Kit contains all the reagents needed to rapidly extract and amplify genomic DNA from mouse tails and other animal tissues, buccal swabs, hair shafts, and saliva. There is no need for mechanical disruption, organic extraction, column purification, or precipitation of the DNA. The kit includes a PCR ReadyMix™, specially formulated for direct PCR amplification from the extract. This formulation uses an antibody-based hot start, for specific amplification. The REDExtract-N-Amp Tissue PCR Kit contains a tracking dye that allows for convenient direct loading of PCR reactions onto agarose gels for analysis.
Application
REDExtract-N-Amp™ tissue PCR kit has been used for DNA extraction and in polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Biochem/physiol Actions
The Extract-N-Amp Tissue PCR Kits provide all the reagents necessary to rapidly extract DNA from a wide variety of cells and tissues and amplify targets of interest by PCR. A novel extraction method eliminates the need for long enzymatic digestions or homogenization. The kit also includes a specially formulated hot start PCR ReadyMix™ for amplification directly from the extract. The REDExtract-N-Amp PCR ReadyMix contains an inert dye that acts as a tracking dye and allows for convenient loading of PCR reactions onto agarose gels for analysis.
The kit contains validated protocols to extract and amplify genomic DNA from mouse-tails, hair, animal tissue, saliva, and buccal swabs. In a typical procedure, genomic DNA is extracted from a sample that has been incubated in the Tissue Preparation Solution and Extraction Solution for 10 minutes at room temperature. The sample is heated to 95 °C for 3 minutes and then mixed with a third solution to neutralize inhibitory substances prior to PCR. A portion of the DNA extract is then added to a PCR reaction containing primers and REDExtract-N-Amp PCR ReadyMix, included in the kit.
