Urine (Exfoliated Cell) DNA Purification Kit – 47050

This kit provides rapid spin column purification of either: 1) human Genomic DNA from exfoliated cells that have been shed into the urine from the urinary tract; or 2) bacterial Genomic DNA from urine samples. It can process volumes between 1 to 50ml of urine. The kit allows for the isolation of Genomic DNA from both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria or exfoliated cells. Multiple samples can be processed in 45 minutes (including a 30 minute incubation). Salts, metabolic wastes and Proteins are removed to yield high quality DNA compatible with any application such as PCR, qPCR, methylation studies, sequencing and more.Healthy humans generally have < 10, 000 CFU of bacteria per ml of urine, and this kit is sufficiently sensitive to isolate and detect DNA from even this minimal amount of bacteria
