The new PowerViral™ Environmental RNA/DNA Isolation Kit is the latest addition to the MO BIO range of molecular biology tools, distributed exclusively in the UK by Cambio.

MO BIO’s kits specialize in nucleic acid extraction from difficult samples, and the new kit is no exception. It extracts viral and bacterial DNA and RNA from samples such as waste water, stool, biosolids and gut material. The patented Inhibitor Removal Technology® (IRT) in the kit allows users to produce pure nucleic acids for use in downstream applications including PCR, cDNA synthesis and more. IRT works by eliminating inhibitory substances, such as undigested plant material in the gut or heme compounds from lysed red blood cells, and produces high yields of exceptionally pure product.

PowerViral™ Environmental RNA/DNA Isolation Kits have the option of a bead beating protocol. Glass bead tubes, along with a strong chemical lysis buffer, provide optimal lysis of soil samples and bacterial cells The kits are also available without bead tubes for isolating viral nucleic acids from liquid samples, so researchers can extract using chemical lysis alone.

Cambio Ltd

The PowerViral™ Environmental RNA/DNA Isolation Kit is designed for fast and easy purification of viral and bacterial total nucleic acids from samples high in PCR inhibitors; including waste water, stool, biosolids, and gut material. Patented Inhibitor Removal Technology® (IRT) ensures complete removal of the inhibitory substances often contained in these materials, such as undigested plant material in the gut or heme compounds from lysed red blood cells, abundant in stool. The result is DNA and RNA that is ready to use in the most demanding downstream applications. Nucleic acids are eluted in RNase-Free Water and ready for PCR, cDNA synthesis and RT-qPCR.PowerViral™ Environmental RNA/DNA Isolation Kit Features: Optimized for challenging samples – Isolate viral and bacterial DNA and RNA from waste water, stool, biosolids and gut material. Inhibitor Removal Technology® - Eliminates inhibitory substances, including polysaccharides, lipids and heme for nucleic acids that are ready to use in downstream applications. Optional bead beating protoocol - Available with Glass Bead Tubes for optimal lysis of solid samples and bacterial cells and without bead tubes for isolation of viral nucleic acids from liquid samples.
