Extracta® Kit – GOLD Pathogen DNA and RNA (MPTA GOLD)
Efficient, automated extraction of pathogen DNA and RNA for molecular diagnostics
Precision and comprehensive coverage for automated nucleic acid extraction in molecular diagnostics
The Extracta® GOLD Pathogen DNA and RNA Kit (MPTA GOLD) was developed for the automated extraction and purification of pathogen nucleic acids from a variety of clinical and laboratory matrices.
Based on magnetic microparticle (magnetic bead) technology and the principle of solid-phase reversible immobilization (SPRI), the kit isolates DNA and RNA from a wide range of microorganisms—including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa—from diverse and complex biological matrices. With an optimized 40-minute protocol (which may vary depending on the equipment), it delivers nucleic acids ready for the most demanding applications, such as PCR, qPCR, genotyping, next-generation sequencing (NGS), and other molecular biology analyses.
