Brand: QIAGEN WB120065
Additional Details : CAS Number : 9004-34-6 Weight : 0.47000kg
Description
For collection, stabilization, processing, transport and archiving of biological samples. 4 sample areas per card.
The 4 spot area QIAcard FTA PlantSaver format provides a laminated flap that allows you to vigorously crush plant or insect samples into the FTA matrix without damaging the FTA card.
Features:
- Simply pressing plant samples onto the FTA matrix or applying homogenate captures and stabilizes the DNA.
- Store and collect at room and high temperatures for convenient collection in the field.
- Smaller sample size: Only young leaves are required, reducing growing time and speeding research.
- Fast purification in 30 minutes: PCR-ready DNA can be purified on FTA in three simple steps, all in a single tube at room temperature.
Applications:
- Analyze plant DNA by PCR-based assays
- Detection of Genetically Modified (GM) organisms
- Marker selected breeding
- Varietal identification
- Phylogeny analysis
- Amplification of low copy number loci
- Invader™ assays
- Multiple displacement amplification
- Transgenic identification
Analysis:
- Plant tissue is physically crushed on the card and the DNA binds to the matrix.
- The chemical coating on the FTA card protects the DNA from degradation and allows the cards to be stored at room temperature for extended periods of time.
- To prepare the sample for PCR, the matrix is washed with two nontoxic aqueous buffers.
- The DNA remains bound to the matrix throughout purification and a small disk (1.2 or 2 mm in diameter) of the matrix provides enough template for PCR analysis.
