Vivantis are very pleased that the GF-1 Bacterial DNA extraction kit has become the most widely published ready to use kit”.

Bacteria is one of the microbes that can be widely found in diverse environments: in the ocean, within soil, in the human intestines, or even in the extreme cold or hot atmosphere. It can be either beneficial or detrimental to human beings. The unique attributes of bacteria makes it one of the most studied subjects in life science research.

What you probably did not know is that the GF-1 Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit from Vivantis is the most widely published ready-to-use kit.  This kit has been designed to provide a rapid and efficient method for purification of high molecular weight genomic DNA from either Gram-negative or Gram-positive bacteria. The purification is based on the usage of denaturing agents to provide lysis of cells, denaturation of proteins and subsequently release of genomic DNA. Special buffers provided in the kit are optimized to enhance the binding of DNA onto a specially-treated glass filter membrane for efficient recovery of highly pure genomic DNA.

The Vivantis GF-1 Bacterial DNA Extraction Kit can produce yields up to 20μg of DNA and requires no organic-based extraction. The highly pure genomic DNA is ready to use for routine molecular biology applications such as restriction enzyme digestion, PCR, Southern blotting and DNA fingerprinting.

Vivantis is a research-based biotechnology company which was founded in 2002. The company specialize in the production of Restriction Enzymes, DNA extraction kits, DNA amplification reagents and other related products for molecular biology research.

Says Vivantis: “We are very pleased that the GF-1 Bacterial DNA extraction kit has become the most widely published ready to use kit”.
