Blood DNA - Blood is main samples in the field of life research and diagnostic testing. The blood is composed of a variety of components which enable to sustain life activities, and buffy coat accounting for less than 1% of blood is comprised of white blood cells and platelets. White blood cells are produced from bone marrow to protect the body against external substances. Whenever wound incurred, platelets get together to this part to stop bleeding through blood coagulation.
While other components such as hematin, hemoglobin, plasma proteins, and other substances act as inhibitors. Therefore, they must be removed thoroughly during the nucleic acid extraction step and it is key point for successful research and diagnostic testing.
GenEx™ Blood Sx serves 'Special Buffer System' to extract high-quality gDNA from various blood samples and remove inhibitors. The quantification (yield, purity) and real-time PCR was carried out on extracted gDNA using GenEx™ Blood Sx to evaluate performance.
