Kleargene spin plates are suited for manual extractions and semi-automated DNA extractions for plant leaves, plant seeds and rodent tails.
learn moresbeadex livestock kit
sbeadex livestock kits produce high-quality DNA. Blood, hair, semen, ear punches, saliva & swabs are used for analysis of a huge diversity of animal species.
learn moresbeadex blood kits
sbeadex™ magnetic microparticles enables the automated high-throughput extraction and purification of high quality DNA preparations from blood.
learn moremag kits
mag™ kits have been developed as a high-throughput and cost-effective DNA isolation method for blood sample, saliva, hair, microorganism, plant and cell tissue etc.
learn moreSample material can vary greatly in consistency as well as in sugar, protein and fat composition - all of which can affect the quality and purity of the extracted nucleic acid and the subsequent performance of downstream applications. To provide the most efficient and effective extraction method LGC offers not only a range of different extraction technologies but also the capacity to develop tailor-made kit systems optimised to a particular application.
