About this manual

The GeneJET Endo-free Plasmid Maxiprep Kit is designed for the large-scale isolation of high-quality endotoxin-free plasmid DNA from recombinant E. coli cultures. It utilizes silica-based membrane technology in the form of convenient spin columns to reduce endotoxin levels to less than 0.1 EU/µg of plasmid DNA.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum amount of plasmid DNA that can be recovered?

Each preparation can recover up to 1000 µg of high copy plasmid DNA.

What is the target endotoxin level for the purified DNA?

The kit is designed to reduce endotoxin levels to less than 0.1 EU/µg of plasmid DNA.

Which E. coli strains are suitable for this kit?

High quality plasmid DNA can be obtained from strains including DH10B, DH5α, XL1-Blue, JM109, JM107, and TOP10.

What is the recommended optical density for the bacterial culture?

The recommended optical density for plasmid DNA isolation is approximately 2-3 (OD 600 = 2-3).
