Takara NucleoSpin DNA Insect, 50 Preps

Mini prep kit (50 preps) for the purification of genomic DNA from fresh, frozen, dried or ethanol preserved insect or crustacean samples. The isolated DNA is used for genotyping, sequencing or any other common application. The NucleoSpin DNA Insect kit utilizes MN Bead Tubes Type D (steel beads; included in kit) in combination with a common disruption device, e.g.,MN Bead Tube Holder, or a swing mill in order to lyse different cell types and tissues within a single procedure.

Required Products

Blue rubber foam adapter for processing MN bead tubes with a vortex apparatus (e.g., Vortex Genie 2). MN bead tubes are 2-mL screw cap plastic tubes containing different types of beads (glass, ceramic, steel, or corundum). They are designed for the homogenization of hard-to-lyse biological samples (e.g., soil, stool, insect, and some microbial samples) prior to purification of nucleic acids.
