The innuPREP Plasmid Mini Kit allows researchers to isolate plasmid DNA from bacterial lysates quickly and easily. The method combines alkaline lysis with the process of binding plasmid DNA to a filter membrane once the chromosomal DNA and bacterial proteins have been precipitated. The bound plasmid DNA is then washed and eluted by adding a low salt buffer. The resulting isolated plasmid DNA can then be used immediately in a variety of additional downstream applications. The new method allows scientists to isolate plasmid DNA from 0.5-10ml of starting material. The use of a novel binding membrane makes it possible to isolate up to 40µg of pDNA.
