Data and Performance
High recovery of high molecular weight genomic DNA with GenFind V3 kit
Genomic DNA isolated from various blood collected in heparin, EDTA and citrate tubes was run on the Agilent Genomic DNA ScreenTape to assess quality. (Left) DIN values from all samples isolated with the GenFind V3 kit were all ≥ 9.0, indicating that high-quality and intact gDNAs were recovered. DNA isolated using Supplier A’s kit were of lower quality indicated with a DIN score of 7.8. (Right) Sample traces of the Genomic DNA isolated from tubes containing heparin.
