sbeadex™ livestock kit
Genetic analysis of livestock samples always requires high-quality DNA preparations
which are often challenging and labour-intensive to produce. Blood,
hair, semen, ear punches, saliva and swabs are all commonly used for
analysis of a huge diversity of animal species. Often, sample type
specific kit systems are necessary, which typically follow different
protocol steps including modified lysis conditions as well as adapted
incubation times for binding and washing steps.
Frequently, automation of high-throughput livestock sample DNA extractions
cannot be done in one parallel extraction run, which can be a
significant bottleneck for high-throughput labs.
The sbeadex™ livestock kit has been developed to use just one kit,
independent of sample origin, to enable extraction runs with livestock
samples such as ear punches, blood, hair, saliva or semen to be done in
parallel.
sbeadex™ livestock kits produce very high-quality DNA, suitable for all down-stream applications including next-generation sequencing, KASP™ genotyping and Chip technologies. sbeadex™ extraction chemistry was developed and optimised for Biosearch Technologies’ oKtopure™ system but can be used on other automated DNA extraction platforms.
