MagBeads FastDNA MaxPure Kit for Feces
SKU: 116598-cf
Feces samples are processed using Lysing Matrix E tubes with MP Biomedicals FastPrep® Instruments, achieving complete lysis of host cells, bacteria, fungi, viruses, protists, and other microorganisms within 40 seconds. The kit is compatible with most automated nucleic acid extraction platforms and also supports manual operation.
A key feature of this kit is its specially formulated reagent system, designed to effectively remove common PCR inhibitors and contaminants—including polysaccharides, heme, bile acids, humic acids, phenolics, and enzymatic inhibitors—from complex fecal matrices. This ensures the extraction of inhibitor-free, high-integrity genomic DNA suitable for demanding downstream applications such as PCR, restriction digestion, electrophoresis, sequencing, and more.
