NucleoSpin 8/96 Tissue is designed for the rapid and simultaneous preparation of highly pure genomic DNA from animal and human tissue (e.g., mouse and rat tails) for varying throughputs in a flexible 8-well strip format and for high-throughput applications in a 96-well format. Up to 30–40 µg of pure genomic DNA (typical yields are 5–15 µg) can be prepared from a 1.2-cm mouse tail tip section (age of mice is 4–6 weeks). Output DNA can be used directly for PCR, Southern blotting, or any kind of enzymatic reaction.
