General description

An overnight recombinant E. coli culture is harvested with centrifugation and subjected to a modified alkaline-SDS lysis procedure followed by adsorption of the plasmid DNA onto silica in the presence of high salts. Contaminants are then removed by a vacuum or spin wash steps. Finally, the bound plasmid DNA is eluted in water or Tris-EDTA buffer.

The GenElute HP Plasmid Miniprep Kit offers an ultrafast and efficient solution for plasmid preparation from E. coli cultures. This kit combines silica-based membrane technology and the convenience of spin or vacuum format,up to 25 μg of high copy plasmid DNA can be recovered from 1-5 mL of E. coli culture in less than 30 minutes. Note that actual yield and optimum volume of culture to use depend on the plasmid and the culture medium.
