QIAsymphony DNA Kits enable automated purification of DNA from a broad range of sample types on the QIAsymphony SP with sample volumes of up to 1 ml. Genomic DNA can be purified from human whole blood, buffy coat, human and animal tissues, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE), cultured cells, and bacterial cultures. The QIAsymphony DNA Mini Kit also enables purification of viral nucleic acids from human whole blood. Optimized protocols provide high yields of pure DNA, and flexible elution volumes allow DNA concentration to be easily optimized for each downstream application. Novel, prefilled reagent cartridges reduce setup time and minimize manual handling. Bar code reading enables full tracking of reagents.
For tissues, cultured cells, and bacteria protocols, manual sample pretreatment is required. The purification procedure is designed to ensure safe and reproducible handling of potentially infectious samples, and comprises 4 steps: lyse, bind, wash, and elute. The user can choose between different elution volumes depending on the protocol. The QIAsymphony SP performs all steps of the purification procedure. Up to 96 samples are processed in a single run.

DNA purified using QIAsymphony DNA Kits is of high quality and is ready for use in downstream applications, such as:
Total DNA was purified from human whole blood (3 donors, 6 replicates each) on the QIAsymphony SP using the QIAsymphony DNA Mini Kit (200 µl) or QIAsymphony DNA Midi Kit (1000 µl). Blood was collected in BD Vacutainer K2E tubes and stored at 5–8°C prior to use. Yield was determined by spectrophotometric analysis.
