Analytical Kits

The BIABooster kits for DNA sizing offer an unrivalled sensitivity for DNA size analysis. This outstanding sensitivity is based on the µLAS patented technology. Moreover, the technology enables the separation of very large DNA, up to 100 kbp or more, and the analysis of unpurified DNA samples.

BIABooster Kits for DNA sizing

For all kits, precise quantification of DNA size and concentration are obtained using carefully manufactured DNA standards. Kits are designed to minimise the work of the user while maximising the shelf life of the products.
Our range of kits is continuously evolving. If you don’t find the kit you want, don’t hesitate to contact us. It will be our pleasure to adapt kits and methods to meet your needs, in terms of sensitivity, or type of unpurified samples, or resolution in a focused size window.
The table below gives the main features of each kit. Consult product notes to view examples of separations and detailed kit content and specifications.

Always included

(1) Limit of Detection: the concentration for a single fragment which gives a signal-to-noise ratio of 3 (peak height). For smears, the LOD is usually 20-50 times higher.
(2) Dynamic Range: ratio between the highest and the lowest concentrations giving a quantifiable result.
(3) Multiple injection: method enabling to lower the LOD up to 10 times by injecting and concentrating the same sample up to 10 times before DNA separation.
(4) High Salt: method enabling to analyse salty samples, up to 130 mM NaCl. Otherwise, the maximum salt concentration is generally 15 mM.
