FAQs
How long does it take to extract DNA from whole blood samples?
The entire workflow takes about 37 minutes with 10 minutes of lysis outside of the machine and 27 minutes on deck.
Does the lysis happen outside of the Manta?
Yes, lysis occurs outside the machine. The resulting lysate is then added to the cartridge, which is placed on the device for further processing.
Do you supply lysis buffers?
Yes, we supply all the required buffers and consumables for the extraction workflow.
How does hemoglobin contamination affect blood lysis, and how can it be minimized?
Hemoglobin can hinder cell lysis and affect downstream DNA purity. Using Buffer BL for effective RBC lysis ensures a clean separation of genomic DNA.
Can old or stored blood samples cause lysis difficulties?
Yes, aged blood samples may experience hemolysis and degradation, leading to reduced DNA yield. To minimize this, process blood samples within 24 hours or store them at -80°C for long-term preservation.
What can I do if there are beads in the elute?
If there are beads in the elute, collect the elute in a microcentrifuge tube and centrifuge at 14000 rpm for 1 minute, and transfer the cleared elute to a fresh microcentrifuge tube.
Can I use clotted blood for DNA extraction?
Do not use clotted blood for genomic DNA extraction. In the case of microclots, ensure that the samples are lysed efficiently at 70°C for 15 minutes, with thorough vortexing.
What is the expected DNA yield and purity from blood samples?
The yield ranges from 5–12 μg per 200 μL of blood with A260/A280 purity ratios between 1.8 and 2.0.
