Patent number: 10041061Abstract: The invention provides methods for extraction of fungal (e.g., yeast spp., filamentous fungal spp.) nucleic acid (e.g., DNA, RNA) from a sample (e.g., be human or veterinary clinical or research samples, agricultural samples, agricultural commodity samples, food products, or environmental samples). In some embodiments, the present invention provides enhanced nucleic acid extraction from samples comprising fungal cell(s) wherein enzymatic (e.g., lysostaphin treatment, lyticase treatment) sample treatment is performed in combination with mechanical (e.g., bead beating) sample treatment.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2011Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: IBIS BIOSCIENCES, INC.Inventors: Gerard Gundling, Thomas Laffler, Cristina A. Ivy, Lendell Cummins
