Fungal gDNA Kit (250 Preps)
Cat. No.: BMG-GD2416-02
Size: 250 Preps
Description:
A Fungal gDNA Kit is a specialized tool designed for the extraction and purification of genomic DNA from fungal samples.
Applications:- These kits are essential for isolating genomic DNA to study fungal genetics, gene function, and molecular mechanisms.
- Extracted DNA can be used to detect and identify fungal pathogens in clinical or environmental samples using PCR or sequencing methods.
- The kits enable studies on fungal genetics and gene function.
- They allow detection of fungi in environmental or food samples.
- Some rapid extraction methods are suitable for PCR screening of fungal mutants.
- Certain kits can extract fungal DNA from infected plant material for studying plant-pathogen interactions.
- Some methods are optimized for extracting DNA from fungal spores collected in traps.
- The kits enable extraction of fungal DNA from complex environmental or clinical samples for microbiome sequencing.
- Extracted DNA can be analyzed to detect antifungal resistance genes.
- These kits allow detection of fastidious or unculturable fungi directly from clinical specimens.
- Lysis buffers to break open fungal cell walls.
- Enzymes for protein digestion.
- Binding buffers to facilitate DNA adsorption.
- Wash buffers to remove impurities.
- Elution buffer to recover purified DNA.
- Spin columns or magnetic beads for DNA purification.
- Specialized lysis techniques (enzymatic digestion, bead-beating).
- Spin column-based purification with silica membrane technology.
- Rapid extraction (typically <1 hour) from tough-to-lyse fungi.
- Suitable for fresh and dried samples, including polysaccharide-rich tissues.
- Processing capacity of 20-200 mg wet tissue or 30-50 mg dry tissue.
- Effective removal of PCR inhibitors.
- Typical yield of 5-30 μg purified DNA.
- Elution volumes of 50-100 μL.
- Suitable for various downstream applications (PCR, sequencing).
- Options for manual or automated processing.
- Available in different formats for various throughput needs.
- All-inclusive kits with necessary reagents and buffers.
