Functional Principle

Functional Principle

The chemagic™ cfDNA for medium volumes of plasma are based on chemagic™ Technology using M-PVA Magnetic Beads. The cfDNA binds to paramagnetic beads which are magnetically separated from the sample material. During subsequent steps contaminants are removed and the purified cfDNA is transferred into an elution medium. The automated sample processing by the chemagic™ 360 instrument or the chemagic™ Prime™ instrument excludes cross contamination and ensures safe handling of infectious sample material.

Plasma Preparation Protocol

Plasma Preparation Protocol

It is recommended to prepare plasma as fresh as possible (max. 5 days after blood draw). Longer storage of blood prior to plasma preparation may lead to poor separation results and higher background from genomic DNA.
A double centrifugation protocol during plasma preparation is recommended to minimize the potential for contamination of plasma with cells and genomic DNA. Transfer of any other blood components (buffy coat or red blood cells) should be avoided while separating the plasma fraction.
Please refer to the tube manufacturers specifications (max. centrifugation speed) for more information.
From 10 mL of whole blood approximately 4 - 5 mL plasma can be expected.

  1. Centrifuge whole blood collection tube at 2000 x g for 20 minutes.
  2. Aspirate plasma carefully and at least 2 - 3 mm above the buffy coat layer, without disturbing the layer and transfer it into a new appropriate tube.
  3. Centrifuge the plasma sample at 3300 x g for 30 minutes.
  4. Carefully transfer the supernatant to a fresh tube without disturbing the pellet, at least 2 - 3 mm above the pellet.
  5. For direct use storage of plasma sample at 2 - 8 °C is possible, for long-term storage -80 °C is recommended.

Medium volume viral nucleic acids and genomic DNA Kits

Kits for viral nucleic acid and genomic DNA purification from medium volumes of body fluids

The medium volume Viral DNA/RNA gDNA chemagic™ kits are designed for the efficient high-throughput isolation of high quality DNA and RNA from up to 1 ml of body fluids. The particular benefit of these kits is the ability to isolate nucleic acids from different kinds of body fluids such as blood, serum, plasma, urine, stool suspensions, nasal-, vaginal- and buccal swabs, sputum, cerebrospinal fluid, puncture, cell suspensions, amniotic fluid, and others. The kit can be used to purify both viral nucleic acids and genomic DNA for research use only.
