NucleoSpin DNA Yeast

The NucleoSpin DNA Yeast kit enables efficient isolation of genomic DNA from pelleted yeast samples. By incorporating a mechanical lysis step with corundum beads, the kit provides a faster protocol than established methods while yielding up to 20 µg of DNA per prep. The kit has been confirmed to perform well with a variety of popular yeast strains, including S. cerevisiae, S. pombe, and P. pastoris.

Preliminary data also indicate the usability of the kit for DNA isolation from fungal mycelia (e.g., A. nidulans), from bacterial spore suspensions (e.g., G. stearothermophilus), and from plant pollen (e.g., honey bee pollen baskets). For optimal DNA yields, bead tubes different from the ones included in the kit may be required.
