GenomePlexÒ Tissue Whole Genome Amplification Kit Catalog Number WGA5 Storage Temperature –20 °C TECHNICAL BULLETIN Product Description

method that allows the researcher to generate a representative amplification of genomic DNA. The kit utilizes a proprietary amplification technology based upon random fragmentation of genomic DNA and conversion of the resulting small fragments to PCR-amplifiable OmniPlexÒ Library molecules flanked by universal priming sites. The OmniPlex library is then PCR amplified using universal oligonucleotide primers and a limited number of cycles. This kit is formulated to amplify the genomic DNA from 1 mg of fresh, frozen, RNAlaterÒ-preserved, or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue; however, as little as 0.1 mg of tissue has successfully been used with this product. The tissue is lysed and genomic DNA released in a 1 hour proteinase K/CelLyticä
