Differential Lysis Spin Columns
In forensic casework, especially sexual assault investigations, separating DNA from different sources is often the deciding factor for obtaining interpretable results. Vaginal swabs are particularly demanding: the overwhelming amount of female epithelial cells can mask the limited number of sperm cells.
An optimized buffer system enables selective lysis of epithelial cells while preserving sperm integrity, making it possible to recover male DNA even from complex mixtures.
Key Features:
- Reliable and consistent separation of DNA fractions during differential lysis
- Streamlined workflow: DNA preparation carried out in a single column, no additional pipetting required
- Sterilized with ethylene oxide to ensure a product free from DNA, RNA, DNases, and RNases
- Improved DNA recovery efficiency
Benefits for forensic laboratories:
- Faster processing with fewer manual steps
- Reliable male DNA profiles from challenging mixed samples
- Lower contamination risk due to minimal sample handling
- Easy integration with existing DNA extraction protocols
- Stable: Inactivation of nucleases enables extended sample storage at – 20 °C.
