Can the Wizard® SV and SV 96 Genomic DNA Purification Systems be used with whole blood or leukocytes?
Both the Wizard®SV Genomic DNA Purification System and the Wizard®SV 96 Genomic DNA Purification System are able to isolate genomic DNA from whole blood and leukocytes. For the Wizard®SV Genomic DNA Purification System, the whole blood must be treated with 20mg/ml Proteinase K for 10 minutes and then Whole Blood Lysis solution added, mixed by vortexing and incubated another 10 minutes. Details on the whole blood isolation and leukocyte isolation can be found by requesting Application Note AN101.
