||||||||| 9DNA Purification<br />
VI. Genomic DNA Isolation Systems<br />
Purified genomic DNA is necessary for further analysis of<br />
disease states, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)<br />
<strong>and</strong> for many other multiplex <strong>and</strong> real-time PCR<br />
applications. Many methods exist for isolation of<br />
chromosomal DNA, <strong>and</strong> <strong>Promega</strong> has genomic purification<br />
systems that are both general (able to isolate from many<br />
source materials) or specialized (primarily used for one<br />
source type). The source types range from bacteria to<br />
humans <strong>and</strong> can encompass tissues from blood to muscle<br />
<strong>and</strong> from leaf to seed.<br />
A. Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit<br />
The Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Cat.# A1120,<br />
A1125, A1620) is both a versatile <strong>and</strong> scalable system for<br />
isolating genomic DNA. With this system alone,<br />
chromosomal DNA can be isolated from whole blood<br />
(Walker et al. 2003), plant leaf (Zhang et al. 2004),<br />
Gram-positive (van Schaik et al. 2004) <strong>and</strong> Gram-negative<br />
bacteria (Flashner et al. 2004), mouse tail (Lee et al. 2005)<br />
<strong>and</strong> yeast (Martinez et al. 2004). Additional sample types<br />
like fungus (Ahmed et al. 2003), infected frog tissues<br />
embedded in paraffin (Pereira et al. 2005), saliva (Cox et al.<br />
2004) <strong>and</strong> flour beetles (Lorenzen et al. 2002) have also been<br />
used successfully with the Wizard® Genomic DNA<br />
Purification Kit. Not only is this genomic purification<br />
system successful with many sample types, it is also easily<br />
scaled for the quantity of starting material by adjusting<br />
reagent volumes to accommodate your needs. Additional<br />
references for the Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit<br />
or any of the <strong>Promega</strong> DNA isolation systems can be found<br />
on our Citations web site (www.promega.com/citations/).<br />

These authors investigated the amo operon of the marine<br />
ammonia oxidizer Nitrosococcus oceani. The bacteria were<br />
grown at 30°C for 3 weeks in 200–400ml batch cultures in<br />
artificial seawater in the dark without shaking. Genomic<br />
DNA was isolated from cells in stationary phase using the<br />
Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit. The isolated DNA<br />
was then used for PCR analysis.<br />

B. Wizard® SV Genomic DNA Purification System<br />
The Wizard® SV Genomic DNA Purification System (Cat.#<br />
A2360, A2361) provides a fast, simple technique for the<br />
preparation of purified <strong>and</strong> intact DNA from mouse tails,<br />
tissues <strong>and</strong> cultured cells in as little as 20 minutes,<br />
depending on the number of samples processed (up to 24<br />
by centrifugation, depending on the rotor size, or up to 20<br />
by vacuum). With some modifications, whole blood can<br />
also be used with this isolation system (<strong>Promega</strong><br />
Corporation, 2002). This is a silica membrane-based system,<br />
