eDNA extraction with kaneka
Fei Xia
Abstract
We used the Kaneka Simple DNA Extraction Kit version 2 (Kaneka) for on-site DNA extraction from Sterivex. We injected 500 µl of Solution A of the kit into the Sterivex and shook it by hand for 1 min. We collected the Solution A buffer in the Sterivex by connecting the syringe with the connecting tube. We added 70 µl of Solution B into the collected Solution A buffer in a 1.5-ml microtube and centrifuged (~2,000 g ) with a portable centrifuge for 3 min. We collected 200 µl of the supernatant solution.
Steps
Inject 250µL
of A buffer into the Sterivex , 0h 1m 0s
shake and rotate .
Put Sterivex into 50ml tube and secured for centrifugation 5000rpm
Remove the liquid from the inlet and put into the 1.5ml tube.
Add 40µL
of B buffer to the 1.5ml tube.
Mix by vortexing.
Store the samples at -20°C
