Description
The FastDNA Spin Kit for Soil is designed to isolate bacterial, fungal, plant, and animal genomic DNA from soil and other environmental samples. Soil is processed by a FastPrep® instrument and Lysing Matrix E tubes designed to efficiently lyse all microorganisms. The released DNA is purified by a silica-based spin filter method and is suitable for PCR analysis and other downstream applications. Complete lysis of all organisms, including historically difficult sources such as eubacterial spores and endospores, gram positive bacteria, yeast, algae, nematodes and fungi is achieved within seconds using a FastPrep instrument and Lysing Matrix E tubes.
