EasyPure® Blood Genomic DNA Kit
EasyPure® Blood Genomic DNA Kit provides a simple and convenient way to isolate high quality genomic DNA from 5-250 μl of fresh or frozen blood. Whole blood is incubated with binding buffer to release DNA. DNA is bound to silica-based column. The isolated DNA is suitable for PCR, restriction enzyme digestion and southern blotting.

All centrifugation steps are carried out at room temperature.
1. Add the appropriate volume of blood, 20 μl Proteinase K and 500 μl BB3 into a microcentrifuge tube. Mix for 15 seconds by vortexing, and then incubate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Optional: If RNA-free genomic DNA is required, add 20 μl RNase A before incubating.
2. Centrifuge briefly, and add all the lysate to a spin column. centrifuge at 12,000×g for 1 minute, discard the flow through.
3. Add 500 μl CB3 (check to ensure you have added ethanol), centrifuge the tube at 12,000×g for 30 seconds, discard flow through.
4. Add 500 μl WB3 (check to ensure you have added ethanol), centrifuge the tube at 12,000×g for 30 seconds, discard flow through.
5. Repeat step 4 once.
6. Place the spin column to a collection tube. Centrifuge the empty column at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes to remove any residual WB3. Air-dry the spin column at room temperature for several minutes.
7. Place the spin column in a sterile 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube. Add 50-200 μl of Elution Buffer (preheated to 60°C, able to increase DNA yield) or distilled water (pH >7.0) to the center of column. Incubate at room temperature for 1 minute. Centrifuge at 12,000 rpm for 1 minute to elute the genomic DNA (to recover more DNA, add EB or distilled water again to perform a second elution). For long-term storage, store the purified DNA at -20°C
Notes
• Do not use too many starting materials in case it affects the extraction performance
• To ensure the quality of extracted DNA, use fresh material and avoid repeated thawing and freezing. DNA quality depends on the types of material and storage time.
• Use sterile tubes and pipette tips to avoid the contamination from DNase
• You may perform the second elution step using the same microcentrifuge tube or different tubes
