Good yield and easy to use
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area: To isolate Plasmid DNA from DH5alpha cells to transfect in mammalian cells

"Obtained a great yield, best in the market when compared to other kits that i have usedand also easy to use, but its somewhat on expensive side, if price can be lowered it will be a great help"

Dependable workhorse for plasmid purification.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Small scale plasmid purification

"Kit represents the gold standard for plasmid preparation. While a little pricey, the Qiagen miniprep kit returns quality DNA for Sanger sequencing. Only complaint is that there is no lid for the columns, which leads to more buffer coating the inside of the centrifuge."

Great results for molecular biology experiments.
Rating: 4.3

  • Application Area:Easily extract plasmid from various samples

"Very effective plasmid extraction kit with easy steps to follow. Straightforward to use, you simply need to follow the instructions and get the higher amount and good quality of plasmid DNA which can be further use to sequencing. Great product and can be efficiently use for plasmid extraction from a range of samples."

A great kit for plasmid purification for a very reasonable price.
Rating: 4.7

  • Application Area:Recombinant DNA plasmid isolation

"The kit is easy to use. Rapid and effective, I was able to generate a great amount of different mutants for my gene of study in a few weeks and I got to enough plasmid DNA for further experiments (transfection of insect cells for recombinant protein expression). For each construct I could purify DNA with high yield and high purity. A great kit for plasmid purification for a very reasonable price."

Great produt, easy to use, works every time.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Cloning and expressing enzymes

"I hadn’t done a plasmid “miniprep" since 2008 until today, when I prepped four. What used to be a real chore, is now as easy as rolling off a log with the use of the QIAGEN Miniprep Kit. Science marches on!"

Great results, great purity.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Plasmid extraction of algae and chlamydonas cultures

"It a very easy to use the mini-prep kit. If the instructions are followed clearly and thoroughly, a high level of purity of plasmids can be achieved. I have extracted over 15 samples using this kit."

  • Application Area:DNA Preparation

"The one problem is that if the user follows the instruction to elute DNA from the column, the DNA is not good for sequencing because it has too much ethanol. The correct step is to spin dry the column for over 10 min at full speed before elution."
