The Virus Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit provides a fast, simple, and cost-effective method for the
isolation of viral DNA/RNA from cell-free samples such as serum, plasma, body fluids and the
supernatant of virus-infected cell cultures. Its unique buffer system will efficiently lyse cells and
degrade protein, allowing for the nucleic acid to be easily bound by the glass fiber matrix of the
column. Contaminants such as salts, metabolites and soluble macromolecular cellular
components are removed in the Wash Step. The phenol extraction and ethanol precipitation are
not required, and the high-quality nucleic acid is eluted in the RNase-free elution buffer. The viral
DNA/RNA isolated with the Total Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit (Virus) is suitable for a variety of
routine applications, including the Real-time PCR/RT-PCR, Automated Fluorescent DNA
Sequencing, PCR, and other enzymatic reactions. The entire procedure can be completed within
15-20 minutes
