The ChargeSwitch® gDNA Mini Bacteria Kit uses magnetic bead-based technology to provide rapid and efficient purification of up to 12 µg of genomic DNA from up to 0.5 ml of Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacterial culture (Figure 1) or an individual colony in less than 15 minutes after lysate preparation.
• Optimized for higher-purity DNA extraction
• Improved performance with accompanying magnetic rack
• Cleaner purified plasmid for optimal downstream performance

High Quality, High Yield Plasmid DNA
The ChargeSwitch® gDNA Mini Bacteria Kit uses magnetic beads with a unique, ionizable functional group whose affinity for nucleic acids is pH-dependent to facilitate nucleic acid purification. Genomic DNA is isolated without the need for hazardous chemicals, centrifugation, or vacuum manifolds.

Compatible with MagnaRack™ Magnetic Rack
The ChargeSwitch® gDNA Mini Bacteria Kit requires the use of a magnetic rack. We recommend using the MagnaRack™ Magnetic Rack, which is a two-piece magnetic separation rack that consists of a magnetic base station and a removable tube rack. The tube rack fits onto the magnetic base station in two different positions associating the row of 12 neodymium magnets with a single row of 12 tubes for simple and easy "on the magnet" and "off the magnet" sample processing.

Improved Performance in Downstream Applications
The ChargeSwitch® gDNA Mini Tissue Kit ensures reliable performance of the resulting gDNA in a variety of downstream applications, including PCR, restriction enzyme digestion, cloning, Southern blotting, and sequencing.
