Abstract: Provided is a method for rapid nucleic acid purification. The method includes allowing the nucleic acid isolated from the biological sample to be adsorbed on a silica membrane; separating contaminants from the nucleic acid-adsorbed silica membrane by using paper chromatography; and eluting only high-purity nucleic acid from the silica membrane from which the contaminants are isolated by using a buffer, or applying at least one selected from direct PCR, RT-PCR, real-time PCR, and real-time RT-PCR to the nucleic acid bound onto the silica membrane.

Abstract: Provided is a method for rapid nucleic acid purification, and the method for rapid nucleic acid isolation according to the present invention is very useful in diagnosing causes of disease or detecting a target gene; can be used in molecular diagnosis of causes of disease more rapidly and conveniently, as compared with the existing nucleic acid isolation method requiring complicated and special equipment; does not require skills therefor, thereby allowing an ordinary person to personally conduct isolation of nucleic acid for analyzing causes of disease and further solving the existing inconvenience caused by directly going to the hospitals or health clinical centers; and can analyze causes of disease more promptly.
