The Invitrogen™ ChargeSwitch™ PCR Clean-Up Kit provides a fast, efficient, and scalable method for purifying PCR products by removing primers, unincorporated dNTPs, thermostable polymerases, and salts. Using ChargeSwitch™ magnetic bead technology, the kit enables high DNA recovery from 25–50 μL PCR reactions with a rapid, one-tube protocol completed in as little as 5 minutes.
This kit is available in 100-prep (CS12000) and 960-prep (CS1200010) formats, making it suitable for both standard and high-throughput applications, including use with liquid-handling robotic platforms. It is supplied with all necessary buffers and reagents, requiring only the use of a compatible magnetic accessory for DNA binding and recovery.
Key Features
- Fast Protocol – Complete purification in just 5 minutes.
- High Recovery – Optimized for maximum yield of DNA fragments from PCR reactions.
- Magnetic Bead-Based – One-tube purification reduces handling and sample loss.
- Scalable & Automated – Compatible with manual workflows or high-throughput robotics.
- Complete Kit – Includes all necessary reagents and buffers for reliable DNA clean-up.
- Flexible Applications – Ideal for downstream use in NGS, cloning, and PCR-based workflows.
Applications
- Removal of primers, dNTPs, polymerases, and salts from PCR reactions.
- Preparation of DNA for next-generation sequencing (NGS).
- PCR product clean-up prior to cloning and ligation workflows.
- Sample preparation for restriction digestion, labeling, or other enzymatic reactions.
- High-throughput DNA clean-up in automated systems.
