  • Method for the isolation of nucleic acid
    Patent number: 6465639
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for isolating nucleic acid from a sample. Known methods for the isolation of nucleic acid from these materials may comprise the use of a chaotropic substance, for example to lyse cells present in the starting material, and free the nucleic acid therefrom. When a nucleic acid containing material is treated with a chaotrope and contacted with a nucleic acid binding solid phase, the nucleic acid will bind to the solid phase in the presence of the chaotrope and the solid phase with the nucleic acid bound thereto can thus be separated from the remainder of the sample.
