  • Publication number: 20090270603
    Abstract: A method for separating and purifying nucleic acid, the method comprising: (1) a step of contacting a sample solution containing nucleic acid with a solid phase to adsorb the nucleic acid on the solid phase; (2) a step of contacting a washing solution with the solid phase to wash the solid phase in a state that the nucleic acid is adsorbed on the solid phase; and (3) a step of contacting a recovering solution with the solid phase to desorb the nucleic acid from the solid phase, wherein the sample solution is prepared by including a step of removing a precipitate component, and adding a surfactant and a water-soluble organic solvent to a supernatant solution of the precipitate.

  • Patent number: 7572578
    Abstract: The present invention is a method for isolating and purifying a nucleic acid, where generation of foams is able to be suppressed whereby the isolation and purification of a nucleic acid are easily and efficiently carried out, the method for isolating and purifying a nucleic acid comprising the step of: (1) contacting a sample solution containing nucleic acid to a solid phase to adsorb the nucleic acid onto the solid phase; (2) contacting a washing solution to the solid phase to wash the solid phase in such a state that the nucleic acid is adsorbed; and (3) contacting an elution solution to the solid phase to desorb the nucleic acid, wherein the sample solution containing nucleic acid contains an antifoaming agent.

  • Publication number: 20060147991
    Abstract: A reactive solid carrier favorably employable for manufacturing DNA chip is composed of a solid carrier and a plurality of vinylsulfonyl groups or their reactive precursors each of which is fixed onto a surface of the solid carrier by covalent bonding via a linking group, and a method for producing a DNA chip is performed by bringing the reactive solid carrier into contact with nucleotide derivatives or their analogues having a reactive group which is reactive with the vinylsulfonyl group or reactive precursor fixed to the solid carrier.

  • Publication number: 20030170664
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide: a method for isolating and purifying nucleic acids which employs a solid phase wherein the solid phase has excellent isolating capability, good washing efficiency, and easy workability, and can be mass produced with substantially identical isolating capability, the solid phase being used in a method for isolating and purifying nucleic acids by adsorbing nucleic acids in a sample onto a solid phase surface and desorbing the nucleic acids by washing and the like; and a unit for isolation and purification of nucleic acid which is suitable for carrying out said method.
