  • QIAGEN MIDI/Minispin Kit

    Hi All,

    I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask, but i'll ask anyway.

    So I was extracting DNA from Serum samples and proceeded using the QIAGEN Kit, after spinning the filters with AW1 and AW2 (both wash buffers), I accidentally added SDS to the column/filter instead of Ethanol. I found out about this right after i spinned the columns through with SDS and immediately added more Ethanol (what I was supposed to add) and spinned through it again. I was planning to use the elution to run PCR and DNA analysis, but I was wondering if the addition of SDS would make this DNA useless or interfere with it too much.

    ps. I added a small amount of SDS already along with the sample as part of starting material.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    What % SDS? My guess is you would have lost a lot of your DNA. Did you save the flow through?

      Recent Developments in Metagenomics
      by seqadmin





      Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...

      Understanding Genetic Influence on Infectious Disease
      by seqadmin




      During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

      Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...
