The NucleoSpin Food Kit allows you to quickly isolate genomic
DNA from many types of processed food or animal feed of plant or
animal origin. Food samples are highly heterogeneous and contain
many different compounds such as fats and polysaccharides. These
characteristics make DNA extraction more difficult. The
NucleoSpin Food protocol guarantees good recovery rates for
small genomic DNA fragments from food. We have optimized the
lysis buffer and purification process to extract DNA from a
variety of food products. The purified DNA is ready to use for
all types of subsequent detection methods, especially as a
template for PCR. Isolation of genomic DNA from food products
assists in detecting and identifying contamination, genetically
modified organisms (GMOs), or individual plant or animal
species. The NucleoSpin Food Kit allows you to process 50–200 mg
of homogenized material using a microcentrifuge to speed the
loading, washing, and elution steps. Due to the low DNA content
of processed food, we recommend usi
