Automate the isolation of nucleic acids from stool, gut material and biosolids with the MagAttract PowerMicrobiome DNA/RNA Kit. Up to 0.25 g of sample can be run through this protocol, isolating high-quality DNA and RNA. Inhibitor Removal Technology eliminates lipids, heme, polysaccharides and other PCR inhibitors from the sample and ClearMag magnetic particles bind pure RNA and DNA only, excluding further organic inhibitors from continuing downstream to other applications. The kit does not use chaotropic salts or ethanol as part of the binding and washing steps, eliminating a secondary source of enzyme-inhibiting contamination. Protocols are available for the Thermo Scientific KingFisher, Eppendorf epMotion and Hamilton Star platforms. The MagAttract PowerMicrobiome DNA/RNA EP and MagAttract PowerMicrobiome DNA/RNA KF were formerly sold by MO BIO as PowerMag Microbiome DNA/RNA EP (384) and PowerMag Microbiome DNA/RNA KF (384).
