BAC Prep UNIFILTER

With ever increasing demand for simple, fast methods to purify DNA from bacterial cultures, the Whatman Genomics microplate is the ideal solution for the clarification of lysates containing large insert vectors.

This microplate has a cellulose acetate membrane with a special support, which clears nonchaotropic bacterial lysates, and long drip directors to eliminate cross talk between wells. Without further purification the DNA is clean enough for further enzymatic manipulation. Cellulose acetate acts as both a depth filter and a fine particle filter. The 0.45 µm pores do not block because of the depth effect of the membrane. Cellulose acetate is also inert and does not bind either DNA or protein.
