The ChargeSwitch™ Direct 96 gDNA Kit is a solid-phase, high-throughput genomic DNA (gDNA) purification system designed for rapid and efficient isolation of gDNA from fresh or frozen samples. This kit utilizes 96-well plates coated with the ChargeSwitch™ nucleic acid-binding surface, whose ionic charge can be switched by changing the pH of the surrounding buffer. At low pH, the positive charge of the ChargeSwitch™ surface binds the negatively charged nucleic acids. Proteins and other contaminants that do not bind are washed away, leaving pure DNA ready for downstream applications. This kit is designed for research use only (Limited Use Label License 5).


– Successful yields from very small samples volumes--up to 10 μl blood or 2 x 10⁴ cells
– Highly pure DNA isolated using gentle buffers--no guanidine or ethanol
– No sample transfer that can lead to error or contamination--direct amplification in the same well as DNA binding without elution
– Adaptable to your throughput needs--compatible with most automated liquid handling platforms
