The Invitrogen™ PureLink™ HiPure Expi Plasmid Megaprep Kit is engineered for ultra-high-yield purification of transfection-grade plasmid DNA from E. coli cultures. Using a proprietary HiPure Expi anion-exchange resin and integrated vacuum filtration columns, the kit delivers rapid clarification and purification in a streamlined workflow, eliminating the need for centrifugation.
From 500 mL–1 L bacterial cultures, the kit yields 4–5 mg of ultrapure plasmid DNA in under 2 hours, with purity equivalent to two cesium chloride gradient passes. Endotoxin levels typically fall within 0.1–1 EU/µg, ensuring suitability for the most sensitive downstream applications such as mammalian cell transfection, genome engineering, and gene therapy research.
Key Features
- Exceptional Yield – Recover 4 mg plasmid DNA from 500 mL or >5 mg from 1 L bacterial culture.
- Transfection-Grade Purity – Low endotoxin levels (0.1–1 EU/µg) and A260/A280 > 1.8.
- Fast Protocol – Complete plasmid purification in ~90 minutes with vacuum assistance.
- Integrated Filtration – Vacuum-assisted columns allow lysate clarification without centrifugation.
- Safe & Efficient – No use of phenol, chloroform, CsCl, or ethidium bromide.
- High-Capacity Resin – Enhanced anion-exchange resin ensures rapid flow rate, high resolution, and efficient endotoxin removal.
Applications
- Transfection of mammalian and sensitive cell lines.
- Genome engineering and CRISPR workflows.
- Plasmid preparation for gene therapy and vaccine research.
- Large-scale plasmid prep for sequencing and cloning.
- PCR amplification and in vitro transcription.
- Restriction enzyme digestion and nucleic acid labeling.
