Easy DNA extraction kit from tough tissues (Tooth or Bone)
TBONE EX KIT


So far, it has been a burdensome task to get DNA from tough tissues such as tooth and bone, as the samples should be ground into powder before extraction. Furthermore, this method may cause contamination.
TBONE EX KIT allow you to skip this burdensome sample preparation step before extraction.
Without grinding, genomic DNA can be extracted. The obtained DNA can be used for further analysis, such as mitochondrial DNA sequencing, short tandem repeat (STR) genotyping etc.
NOTE
During DNA extraction procedure, a conventional DNA extraction kit is also required.
The followings are examples of DNA extraction kit which are compatible with TBONE EX KIT.
