Can I use AquaStool to extract DNA from other biospecimens?
Yes, for DNA extraction from cultured cells, simply add AquaStool solution to the cell pellet or the culture dish after removing the culture medium, and vortex to lyse the cells. For DNA extraction from animal tissues, such as tail snips, homogenize the tissue sample in AquaStool solution. After lysis and homogenization, follow the fecal DNA extraction protocol to recover the DNA from the cleared lysate.
