QIAprep 96 Turbo Plates and TurboFilter 96 Plates are designed for isolation of up to 20 g high-purity plasmid or cosmid DNA for use in routine molecular biology applications such as sequencing, cloning, and PCR. The QIAprep 96 Turbo procedure is performed entirely in 96-well format, reducing sample handling to a minimum.
High-Throughput Plasmid DNA PurificationThe QIAprep 96 Plates expedite large-scale plasmid DNA purification directly from bacterial lysates. Designed for use in molecular biology workflows, they integrate seamlessly into multi-channel pipetting and automated systems, making them perfect for laboratories handling multiple samples daily. Each well yields up to 5 g of high-quality DNA, ideal for applications such as PCR, cloning, and sequencing.
Silica Membrane Technology AdvantageUtilizing advanced silica membrane technology, these plates deliver consistent and reliable DNA purification. This ensures each sample is free from RNases and other contaminants, preserving integrity for sensitive downstream applications. The technology enhances yield and purity, meeting the demands of genomic research, diagnostics, and high-throughput screening.
Convenient and Versatile Laboratory UseQIAprep 96 Plates are compatible with standard laboratory equipment, including multi-channel pipettes and automation platforms. Their transparent, polypropylene design allows easy visual monitoring. Stored at room temperature, these disposable plates require no power source, simplifying both routine and high-throughput workflows. Their RNase-free attribute makes them a trustworthy choice for precision research.
FAQ's of Qiagen QIAprep 96 Plates (24):
Q: How are the QIAprep 96 Plates used for plasmid DNA purification?
A: The QIAprep 96 Plates are designed for manual, high-throughput purification of plasmid DNA from bacterial lysates. Simply load your bacterial lysate samples into the wells, follow the binding and washing steps as per protocol, and extract purified DNA using either a multi-channel pipette or an automated platform.
Q: What sample types and applications are these plates suitable for?
A: These plates are intended for purifying plasmid DNA from bacterial lysates, making them suitable for molecular biology, genomics research, PCR, cloning, and clinical diagnostics. The high yield per well supports a range of downstream applications.
Q: When should I consider using QIAprep 96 Plates over single-column methods?
A: QIAprep 96 Plates are ideal when processing multiple samples in parallel, such as in high-throughput laboratories or studies requiring repeat DNA preparations. They significantly reduce hands-on time compared to single-column formats.
Q: Where can these plates be integrated into laboratory workflows?
A: These plates fit into standard 96-well processing formats and are compatible with both manual multi-channel pipettes and automated liquid handling platforms. They can be readily adopted into existing DNA purification workflows in academic, diagnostic, and industrial labs.
Q: What is the purification process and technology used in these plates?
A: The plates utilize silica membrane technology, where DNA selectively binds to the membrane under certain conditions. Impurities are washed away, and pure DNA is eluted, ensuring high purity and yield suitable for sensitive genomic applications.
Q: What are the main benefits of using QIAprep 96 Plates?
A: Benefits include high-throughput capability, efficient and consistent DNA yield, compatibility with various laboratory instruments, and RNase-free material ensuring sample integrity. Their disposable, easy-to-use format streamlines laboratory operations.
Q: Are special storage conditions or equipment needed for the QIAprep 96 Plates?
A: No special storage conditions or equipment are required. The plates are stored at room temperature and require only standard multi-channel pipettes or automation systems for operation, making them highly convenient for routine use.
