The PureLink Viral RNA/DNA Mini Kit provides a rapid and efficient method to simultaneously purify viral RNA/DNA from fresh or frozen cell-free biological fluids (plasma, serum, cerebrospinal fluid) and cell culture supernatants. The kit is specifically designed to isolate high-quality viral nucleic acids from a variety of RNA and DNA viruses within 45 minutes using low elution volumes that allow sensitive downstream analysis. The purified viral RNA/DNA is devoid of proteins and nucleases and is suitable for use in downstream applications that allow viral detection and genotyping.
The PureLink Viral Mini Kit has been used to purify viral dsDNA from orthopoxviruses including cowpox virus, variola virus, monkeypox virus, vaccinia virus, and HERV.
The PureLink Viral RNA/DNA Mini Kit provides the following advantages:
• Rapid and efficient purification of high-quality viral nucleic acid using spin column-based centrifugation with no sample cross-contamination
• Specifically designed to purify viral RNA and DNA from ≤500 μL cell-free samples within 45 min
• Ability to elute viral nucleic acids in low elution volumes of 10–50 μL to allow sensitive downstream analysis
