A 50-prep kit of the fastest, most simple product available for the purification of plasmid DNA from E. coli.
Highlights:
- Pellet-Free™ procedure* does not rely upon conventional cell-pelleting and resuspension steps
- Innovative colored buffers* for error-free visual identification of complete bacterial cell lysis and neutralization
- Superior design ensures low elution volumes and zero residual wash buffer contamination
- Columns adaptable to centrifuge and vacuum-based procedures
*Pellet-Free™ and colored buffer plasmid DNA purification technologies are patent pending.
We get a miniprep kit (50) for less than 40$.
What is the benefit for us with this kit of yours?
Our miniprep is simple, rapid, precise, and only costs $0.80 to $0.84 per sample.
Our miniprep takes just 8 minutes.
It also uses innovative colored buffers to permit error-free visual identification of complete bacterial cell lysis and neutralization.
We use a modified alkaline lysis method that does not rely upon culture centrifugation, pelleting, or resuspension and our design ensues zero residual wash buffer contamination.
And most importantly, it is free to try. Try it for yourself and see the difference.
Compare this to QIAGEN's similar kit:

Q costs $4.78- $6.00$ per sample
Q takes about 30 minutes
Q's protocols are very complicated
I presume that this offer is only for the States. Am I right? I'm in UK (By the way, I use Quiagen)
That is correct. As of now, this offer is only good for the US. However, within the next few weeks we will be launching the product overseas and sending samples to our major distributors. Please contact one of your local distributors if you would like to try this kit. Thank you very much for your interest.
