Materials
- Buffer PB (in Qiagen kit)
- Buffer PE (in Qiagen kit)
- Buffer EB (in Qiagen kit)
- QiaPrep spin column (1 per PCR reaction)
- 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube (1 per PCR reaction)
Procedure
- Label spin columns and microcentrifuge tubes with the names of the appropriate PCR reactions
- Using a P-200, add 200 μL buffer PB to each 40-μL PCR and mix well by gently pipetting up and down
- Transfer the mixture to a QiaPrep spin column
- Centrifuge at full speed for 30 seconds
- Dump and tap
- Add 600 μL buffer PE to each column
- Centrifuge at full speed for 30 seconds
- Dump and tap
- Centrifuge for an additional 5 minutes at full speed
- Move the column to a 1.5 mL microfuge tube
- Add 50 μL buffer EB (to elute)
- Drip this directly onto the filter disk but don't touch it with the pipette tip
- Wait 2 minutes
- Centrifuge at full speed for 1 minute
- Point the lids of the microcentrifuge tubes in a clockwise direction, otherwise they'll break off
