The Viral DNA/RNA Respi Kit has been designed and optimized for automated isolation of viral DNA and/or RNA from respiratory samples, such as nasopharyngeal & throat swabs, for use in downstream applications like COVID-19 testing.
The extraction procedure is based on highly specific magnetic bead technology, and the prefilled 96-well deep well plates allow for fully automated nucleic acid purification with excellent yields and purity.
The Viral DNA/RNA Respi Kit is currently available in 2 formats:
- Kit for 64 extractions on the Katsura M32 Nucleic Acid Extractor, and similar platforms using 8-rod heads
- Kit for 96 extractions for use on the KingFisher Flex instrument and similar instruments using 96-rod heads
