Vivacon 2 ETO Centrifugal Ultra Filter (PCR Grade, 30,000 MWCO, Hydrosart Membrane, 25 per pack)

Vivacon 2 ETO Centrifugal Ultra Filter (PCR Grade, 30,000 MWCO, Hydrosart Membrane, 25 per pack)

PCR Grade Vivacons achieved by Ethylene Oxide Treatment

The new Vivacon 2 PCR Grade units, in addition to all features described below for Vivacon 2, have been treated with a dual-cycle ethylene oxide (ETO) gas process to ensure they are sterile to a safety assurance level of 10-6 and free of detectable human genomic DNA contamination tested with a qPCR assay over 55 cycles with a verified limit of detection of < 2 pg.

Vivacon 2 are centrifugal concentrators for DNA concentration and buffer exchange applications with samples up to 2 ml. For optimal performance with very dilute samples, e.g. forensic specimens, Vivacon 2 is equipped with the patented Hydrosart regenerated cellulose membrane that guarantees extremely low binding properties and high flux. High recoveries and excellent reproducibility are paired with convenience offered by volume graduation and molecular weight cut-off printed on individual devices.

Vivacon 2 features a horizontal membrane design that is preferred by some users for reasons of consistency with previously used procedures and high recovery. The possibility of a back-spin after sample processing assures complete concentrate recovery which is especially important when working with low sample concentrations.
