About Zyppy™ -96 Plasmid MagBead Miniprep
The Zyppy™-96 Plasmid MagBead Miniprep is the fastest high-throughput (96-well), Pellet-Free method available for efficient isolation of plasmid DNA from E. coli. The kit features a modified alkaline lysis system that bypasses tedious centrifugation, pelleting, and re-suspension steps common to conventional procedures. Instead, the uniquely formulated Deep Blue Lysis Buffer is added directly to bacterial cultures in a 96-well block. Buffer neutralization and lysate separation steps are expedited using a specially designed Neutralization Buffer. Plasmid DNA is then purified using the featured magnetic bead based technology. This straightforward procedure is compatible for either automated or manual processing.
Eluted plasmid DNA is of the highest quality, endotoxin-free, and is well suited for use in restriction endonuclease digestion, DNA ligation, PCR, transcription, sequencing, and other sensitive downstream applications including transfection. An overview of the purification procedure is shown below.
