MasterPure™ Selection Guide
Nucleic Acid Purification for Most Molecular Biology Applications
The MasterPure™ products purify nucleic acids from virtually any sample. The MasterPure technology is solution-based and does not use spin columns, which result in higher yields. Most protocols can be completed in less than one hour and may be scaled up or down as needed. High purity and yields are assured, and kits are free of toxic organic solvents.
