Removal of gDNA from RNA samples is of particular important to scientists undertaking RT-PCR, RNA-seq and microarray-based applications where the high purity and accurate measurement of RNA is vital.

Employing a simple load and spin method the new columns efficiently capture gDNA on the membrane allowing efficient flow through of DNA-free cell lysatesfor downstream RNA purification. Unlike traditional gDNA removal methods – Chromatrap® gDNA removal columns require no time-consuming enzymatic digeston that can also impact RNA purity.

Beneficially using the Chromatrap® spin column methodology the captured gDNA may also be eluted for use in downstream applications such as g PCR, Southern blotting, cloning and sequencing.
