20100143878 | METHODS AND KITS FOR ISOLATING CELLS - Disclosed are methods for differential extraction of a target component from a sample which is predominantly composed of other types of non-target cells that can be lysed using methods that do not lyse the target cells, so that the target material can be purified away from the lysed non-target material. One exemplary method is directed to isolating sperm cells from an aqueous sample and kits for performing same. | 06-10-2010 |
20110054157 | METHODS OF OPTIMAL PURIFICATION OF NUCLEIC ACIDS AND KIT FOR USE IN PERFORMING SUCH METHODS - A method and kit which allow the use of a discrete amount of a binding matrix to first purify nucleic acids from a medium under a first set of binding conditions wherein the amount of nucleic acid bound to the binding matrix is essentially independent of the amount of surface area of the definable amount of the binding matrix, followed by a second purification step wherein the nucleic acids are bound to a discrete amount of binding matrix under a second set of binding conditions wherein the amount of nucleic acid bound to the binding matrix is essentially dependent on the amount of surface area of the definable amount of the binding matrix, thus providing a discrete quantity of nucleic acid. | 03-03-2011 |
20110054161 | METHODS OF PURIFYING A NUCLEIC ACID AND FORMULATION AND KIT FOR USE IN PERFORMING SUCH METHODS - A formulation containing guanidine thiocyanate together with acetamide, one or more acetamide derivatives, or a combination of acetamide and one or more acetamide derivatives is used to purify one or more nucleic acids contained in a medium. In particular, a medium containing at least one nucleic acid is combined with a binding matrix and the formulation in order to cause the at least one nucleic acid to separate from its in vivo cellular environment and to bind to the binding matrix. The binding matrix with at least one nucleic acid bound thereto then is separated from substantially the rest of the combined medium and formulation, after which the at least one nucleic acid is eluted from the binding matrix to obtain the at least one nucleic acid in a substantially purified form. If different nucleic acids are to be selectively purified from a single medium, multiple binding matrices, each compatible with a different nucleic acid, can be used. | 03-03-2011 |

In particular, the present invention provides methods for generating a purified RNA or DNA sample from a sample containing both DNA and RNA molecules using a binding matrix that preferentially binds DNA or RNA in the presence of an acidic dilution buffer, or using a binding matrix that comprises acid zeolites, as well as compositions and kits for practicing such methods. | 03-08-2012 |
20120309952 | SMALL RNA PURIFICATION - The present invention relates to methods, kits, and compositions for purifying small RNA molecules. In particular, the present invention provides methods for purifying small RNA molecules from a sample containing both small RNA molecules and larger RNA molecules using a compaction agent and a RNA binding matrix, as well as compositions and kits for practicing such methods. In certain embodiments, the compaction agent comprises a plurality of metal-amine-halide molecules. | 12-06-2012 |
