Superior Yield and Quality
The animal tissue and small organism packs use magnetic bead technology for the nucleic acid extractions. The magnetic beads have a lot of surface area and are moving around in the homogenate throughout the initial incubation period, so they isolate high quantities of nucleic acids with ease in half the time of spin columns. They also remove most of the centrifugation steps required with spin columns.
Additional reagents for high quality yield that you typically need to purchase separately are included in the kits: Proteinase K, RNase A (in DNA isolation kit), DNase I (in RNA isolation kit), and FoamBlocker. The result is a high quality DNA or RNA product.
The plant and fungi packs use precipitation to extract DNA. The precipitation process can be started in just minutes.
PrecisionPak vs Other Methods
Â
Comparison of PrecisionPak MAGneat DNA extraction kit and “Qompetitor” kit. Purified DNA from 30mg of various tissue samples were extracted either using PrecisionPak MAGneat DNA kit or “Qompetitor” kit, following manufacturer’s instructions. Extracted DNA samples were run on a 1% Agarose gel. M – 1 kb ladder.
PCR amplification from DNA isolated using PrecisionPak MAGneat Animal tissue kit. PCR amplification was performed to amplify a 900bp fragment of ACT1 gene. PCR products were run on a 1% Agarose gel. M – 100bp ladder.
Comparison of PrecisionPak MAGneat RNA extraction kit, “Qompetitor” kit and Trizol extraction method. Purified RNA from 30mg of various tissue samples or whole Drosophila were extracted using PrecisionPak MAGneat RNA or “Qompetitor” extraction kit, following manufacturer’s instructions or using the Trizol extraction method. Extracted RNA samples were analyzed using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. L – Ladder

One-step RT-qPCR amplification from RNA isolated using PrecisionPak MAGneat Animal tissue kit. Total RNA was extracted from chicken pectoral muscle and used as template for the dynamic range setup targeting GAPDH fragment. The reaction was set up using eight 10-fold serial dilutions (200 ng – 200 fg, six replicates at each concentration) of chicken total RNA. The amplification plot shows reproducibility and accuracy across a wide dynamic range.
Optimized Protocols
We provide protocols that have been developed and tested for your specific application. Bullet Blender® speed and time settings are optimized to avoid DNA degradation for a high quality product. In-house data is available and reflects the quality of the kits. Browse through our library of PrecisionPak Protocols to find one for your needs!
Comprehensive Kits
The PrecisionPak provides everything you need: all the buffers and reagents and the protocol for high quality and high yield. The PrecisionPak includes additional enzymes such as Proteinase K to facilitate tissue digestion, RNase A (in DNA extraction kit) to remove the contaminating RNA, and DNase I (in RNA extraction kit) to remove the contaminating DNA. The kits also include an optimized protocol.
Save Time
Use of magnetic beads instead of spin columns eliminates the need for multiple centrifugation steps, which are both tedious and time-consuming. Our magnetic rack assembly enables you to batch process up to 8 samples in a rack. The magnetic field can be applied for wash steps and removed for binding steps, without the sample tubes ever leaving the rack. This saves time and provides convenience.
No Organic Solvents
The buffers and the reagents in the kit do not use toxic organic solvents. There is no need to overcrowd the fume hood as the procedure can be done on the benchtop. There are no separate containers required to collect the toxic chemicals and you do not have to spend money on the disposal of toxic wastes.
Great Value
The PrecisionPak comes with the lysis and extraction kits to obtain superior quality DNA or RNA, including reagents to remove unwanted proteins and nucleic acids. The protocol is already optimized for high quality and high yield, so you do not have to fuss. With no spin columns, there are fewer centrifugation steps – extraction is finished in less time.Â
Overall, the PrecisionPak offers great value because it includes:
- the lysis and extraction kits and the additional reagents to remove unwanted proteins and nucleic acids at a fair price
- saves you time by providing everything in a single package
- provides a protocol that is already optimized
- includes unlimited technical support
