Presto TM M ini Plasmid K it
Introduction (PDH100, PDH300)The Presto™ Mini Plasmid Kit was designed for rapid isolation of plasmid DNA from 1-7 ml of cultured bacterial cells. A modified alkaline lysis method and RNase treatment are used to obtain clear cell lysate with minimal gDNA and RNA contaminants. In the presence of chaotropic salt, plasmid DNA in the lysate binds to the glass fiber matrix of the spin column. Contaminants are removed with a Wash Buffer (containing ethanol) and the purified plasmid DNA is eluted by a low salt Elution Buffer, TE or water. DNA phenol extraction or alcohol precipitation is not required.

Introduction (PEH100, PEH300)The Presto™ Endotoxin Free Mini Plasmid Kit was designed for transfection grade plasmid DNA purification from 1-5 ml of cultured E. coli cells using silica-membrane spin columns. A modified alkaline lysis method and RNase treatment are used to obtain clear cell lysate with minimal genomic DNA and RNA contaminants. In addition, an efficient endotoxin removal step is integrated in the procedure and endotoxins are precipitated in a proprietary reagent. TrueBlue Lysis Buffer (an optional color indicator) is included with the kit in order to prevent common handling errors, ensuring efficient cell lysis and neutralization. DNA phenol extraction or alcohol precipitation is not required and the entire procedure can be completed within 50 minutes. The purified endotoxin free plasmid DNA is ready for use in transfection, restriction enzyme digestion, ligation, PCR, and sequencing reactions.

Introduction (PIF025)The Presto™ Midi Plasmid Kit was designed for plasmid DNA purification from 50-150 ml of cultured bacterial cells. TrueBlue Lysis Buffer (an optional color indicator) is included with the kit to prevent common handling errors, while ensuring efficient cell lysis and neutralization. A modified alkaline lysis method and RNase treatment are used to obtain clear cell lysate with minimal genomic DNA/RNA contaminants. Using an efficient gravity-flow procedure, plasmid DNA in the crude lysate is bound by the plasmid midi column and the contaminants are removed with PW Buffer. The purified plasmid DNA is eluted by a high salt buffer then precipitated with isopropanol for desalting. Due to the high efficiency of the new Presto™ Midi Spin Column, the entire procedure can be completed in 80 minutes without ultracentrifuges, HPLC or other toxic reagents.

Lyse bacterial cells (optional color indicator will turn blue when lysis is successful)
Introduction (PIE25)The GeneaidTM Midi Plasmid Kit Endotoxin Free was designed for plasmid DNA purification using pre-packed anion-exchange resin columns to purify plasmid DNA from 50-300 ml of cultured bacterial cells. TrueBlue Lysis Buffer (an optional color indicator) is included with the kit to prevent common handling errors, while ensuring efficient cell lysis and neutralization. PER Buffer is included with the kit to ensure efficient endotoxin removal from plasmid preparations. A modified alkaline lysis method and RNase treatment are used to obtain clear cell lysate with minimal gDNA and RNA contaminants. Using an efficient gravity-flow procedure, plasmid DNA in the crude lysate is bound by the plasmid midi column and the contaminants are removed with PW Buffer. The purified plasmid DNA is eluted by a high salt buffer then precipitated with isopropanol for desalting. The entire procedure can be completed in 2 hours without ultracentrifuges, HPLC or other toxic reagents and the purified plasmid DNA is suitable for Transfection, Sequencing Reactions, Ligation, PCR, In-vitro Transcription, Microinjection, Restriction Enzyme Digestion and Gene Gun.

Table 1. DNA Recovery is highly dependant on the volume of elution buffer used. 90% recovery can be acheived when using 400 μl of elution buffer. However, DNA concentration is decreased. When using small volumes of elution buffer, recovery is decreased but concentration is increased.

Presto TM Plasmid DNA Concentrat ion K it
Introduction (PC0250/251, PC0500/501 PC1000/1001)The Presto™ Plasmid DNA Concentration Kit offers a simplified replacement for time-consuming DNA precipitation procedures. The Presto™ Plasmid Concentrator will quickly and efficiently concentrate plasmid DNA in anion-exchange chromatographic DNA purification eluates collected from Geneaid Plasmid Midi Columns, Macherey-Nagel NucleoBond® AX, NucleoBond® Xtra Columns, QIAGEN® tip 500 Columns etc. Plasmid eluates are precipitated with isopropanol then passed through a Presto™ Plasmid Concentrator using a syringe. Once contaminants are removed using a proprietary Desalting Buffer, the concentrator is dried and plasmid DNA is eluted with a small volume (100-400 μl) of low salt Elution Buffer. The Presto™ Plasmid Concentrator eliminates DNA pellet loss and incomplete solubilization of precipitates to ensure highly concentrated, purified plasmid DNA. In only 10 minutes, the plasmid DNA can be used directly in a variety of sensitive downstream applications, such as Transfection, Sequencing, Ligation, Library screening, PCR, In-vitro transcription, Microinjection, Restriction enzyme digestion and Gene gun.

Introduction (96PDV04/10, 96PDC04/10)The Presto™ 96 Well Plasmid Kit was designed for high-throughput plasmid DNA purification from 1-5 ml of cultured bacterial cells. A modified alkaline lysis method and RNase treatment are used to obtain clear cell lysate with minimal genomic DNA/RNA contaminants. In the presence of chaotropic salt, plasmid DNA in the lysate binds to the glass fiber matrix of each well of the Presto™ Plasmid 96 Well Binding Plate. Contaminants are removed with a Wash Buffer (containing ethanol) and the purified plasmid DNA is eluted by a low salt Elution Buffer, TE or water. DNA phenol extraction or alcohol precipitation is not required and the entire procedure can be completed within 25 minutes.
