Nucleic Acid Purification
Biological workflows for detecting, analyzing, amplifying or manipulating DNA and RNA often require extraction and purification from a biological sample and/or enzymatic reactions. Monarch nucleic acid purification kits provide fast and reliable purification of high quality DNA and RNA from a variety of sources using best-in-class silica column technology. DNA and RNA purified with Monarch Kits is highly-pure and suitable for use in a wide variety of downstream applications including sequencing, cloning, and enzymatic manipulations. Available for genomic DNA and total RNA extraction, DNA & RNA cleanup, plasmid minipreps, and gel extraction, Monarch kits are all designed with sustainability in mind; they use less plastic and are packaged in responsibly-sourced, recyclable material.
Choose Type:
- Can I use water to elute the DNA when using the Monarch Kits?
- Are Monarch spin columns compatible with Vacuum Manifolds?
- What is the maximum binding capacity of the Monarch DNA Cleanup Column provided in the Monarch DNA Gel Extraction Kit?
- What is the maximum binding capacity of the Monarch DNA Cleanup Column provided with the Monarch PCR & DNA Cleanup Kit (5 μg)?
- Are plasmids recovered using the Monarch Plasmid Miniprep Kit endotoxin free?
- Can I use the Monarch DNA & PCR Cleanup Kit to purify oligonucleotides and other short DNA fragments?
- I have used 5 ml of cell culture for plasmid isolation with the Monarch Plasmid Miniprep kit and I am obtaining low amounts of plasmid and/or contaminating gDNA. Why is this, and what are your suggestions to improve yield and purity?
- How important is it to pre-heat the elution buffer to 60°C? Would 56°C be OK?
- The enzymes in the kit were not stored at -20°C right away. Will they still work?
- What is the composition of each buffer provided with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit?
- What is the DNA sequence of this product?
- What is the maximum binding capacity of the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit columns?
- What is the minimum elution volume that can be used with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit columns?
- Can I get better recovery with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit if I do a second elution with my eluent from the first elution?
- Can I use a different elution buffer than the one supplied with the kit?
- Can I use a different elution buffer than the one supplied with the kit?
- What size gDNA can be purified with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit?
- Can I omit the low-speed binding centrifugation step to save time?
- Can I omit the RNase A digestion step from the protocol?
- Can I use a different Proteinase K with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit?
- Can I use a different RNase A with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit?
- Can I use Monarch® RNase A for applications/workflows other than gDNA purification?
- Can I use the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit for gDNA cleanup?
- Can I use the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit to clean up gDNA that was extracted with phenol/chloroform?
- Does it matter which anticoagulant is used in blood samples?
- How can I assess gDNA integrity and purity?
- How should I store purified gDNA samples?
- Is Monarch-purified gDNA compatible with Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) platforms like PacBio and nanopore?
- Is Monarch-purified gDNA suitable for long-range PCR?
- What is the minimal input amount that can be used with the Monarch® Genomic DNA Purification Kit?
- When working with other commercial silica column-based kits, I occasionally see a white precipitate in the eluate. What is this?

Five Steps to a Greener Lab: A roadmap to environmental action
The laboratory is a place of inspiration, curiosity, ingenuity, and often altruism. Researchers are, by and large, a thoughtful and deeply invested group, but the environmental and ecological consequences of life science research are not typically at the forefront of researchers’ minds when planning their investigations.
