Rapid, high-yield purification of microbial and environmental DNA from water samples.
The GSure® Water DNA Isolation Kit is an optimized silica-spin–column based extraction system designed for efficient recovery of high-quality DNA from environmental water samples. Whether the goal is microbial surveillance, environmental monitoring, sewage/wastewater testing, or pathogen detection, this kit ensures robust lysis, efficient inhibitor removal, and high-purity DNA, suitable for downstream applications including PCR, qPCR, metagenomics, and next-generation sequencing (NGS).
The protocol is designed to process filtered water samples using mechanical lysis with glass beads, followed by chemical extraction and silica-column purification. The kit performs reliably across a wide range of water sources—groundwater, surface water, industrial effluent, treated water, and environmental monitoring samples.
● High DNA Yield from Low Biomass Samples: Efficient lysis using glass bead–based disruption + high-stringency extraction buffers, ensuring maximum recovery even from low microbial load water samples.
● Removes PCR Inhibitors Effectively: Proprietary buffers (GDW1, GDW2 & GDW3) remove humic acids, salts, detergents, and environmental contaminants, enabling inhibition-free PCR/qPCR.
● Silica Column–Based Purification: GMini Spin Columns ensure clean, intact DNA ideal for molecular detection workflows.
● Compatible With All Downstream Applications: Purified DNA performs robustly in PCR, qPCR, digital PCR, metagenomics, sequencing, cloning, RFLP, etc.
● User-Friendly, Fast Protocol: Complete extraction within 35–40 minutes, using standard microcentrifuge—no toxic chemicals, no phenol/chloroform.
● Room-Temperature Storage: All reagents are stable at room temperature, enabling convenient laboratory use.
● Flexible Elution: Adjustable elution volume (50–200 µL) for concentration needs.
