Overview

• Isolate DNA from a wide range of food materials. (e.g boiled, fluid, processed or raw food products)
• No hazardous chemicals required (e.g. phenol or chloroform)
• Effective lysis with Proteinase K and optional lysozyme treatment
• Fast (less than 15 minutes hands-on time) and convenient processing using a rapid spin-column format
• Wide compatibility with a variety of food products for GMO-DNA isolation
• Universal protocol for food related pathogen DNA isolation (Gram positive and Gram negative)

This kit provides a rapid spin column method for the isolation and purification of total DNA from a wide range of food samples originating from animals or plants. The kit is designed for identification of GMO-DNA or animal components in food and feed and can be used for a wide range of starting materials including raw or processed food, meat, liquids, sauces and dairy products including milk, cheese and yogurt.

This kit also provides a convenient method for the detection of food-related pathogens and will isolate such DNA (enriched or as is) including Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, yeast and fungi which may contaminate food sources.  A number of pathogens have been tested including E. coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica & Campylobacter jejuni.  The purified DNA is of the highest integrity, and can be used in a number of downstream applications including PCR based detection, sequencing and genotyping.

The future of lab automation is here.

Opentrons Flex is a liquid-handling robot designed for high throughput and complex workflows. The Flex robot is the base of a modular system that includes pipettes, a labware gripper, on-deck modules, and labware — all of which you can swap out yourself. Flex is designed with a touchscreen so you can work with it directly at the lab bench, or you can control it from across your lab with the Opentrons App or our open-source APIs.
