The EZ-96 DNA Methylation-Direct MagPrep features simple and reliable DNA bisulfite conversion directly from blood, tissue, and cells without the prerequisite for DNA purification. The increased sensitivity of this kit makes it possible to amplify bisulfite converted DNA from as few as 10 cells or 50 pg DNA. These innovations have been coupled to a magnetic bead based clean-up for high-throughput methylation analysis. Desulphonation and clean-up of the converted DNA is performed while bound to the MagBinding Beads. The kits have been designed to minimize template degradation, loss of DNA during treatment and clean-up, and to provide complete conversion of unmethylated cytosines. Recovered DNA is ideal for PCR, array, bisulfite and next generation sequencing, etc.
