The Maxwell RSC Plant DNA Kit is used with the Maxwell RSC Instrument (Cat.# AS4500) to provide an easy method for efficient, automated purification of genomic DNA (gDNA) from plant tissue samples. The Maxwell RSC Instrument is supplied with preprogrammed purification methods and is designed for use with predispensed reagent cartridges, maximizing simplicity and convenience. The instrument can process up to 16 samples in 45 minutes, and the purified DNA can be used directly in a variety of downstream applications, including PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis.
