QIAGEN MagAttract HMW DNA Tissue Extraction Protocol

The QIAGEN MagAttract HMW DNA Kit uses magnetic bead based purification chemistry to extract high molecular weight (HMW) genomic DNA from tissue samples. This DNA is suitable for applications requiring long, intact DNA fragments, including whole genome sequencing using long read sequencing technologies.

The Myra Liquid Handling System automates reagent dispensing and magnetic bead handling to standardise DNA extraction and reduce hands on time. This MyraScript protocol is configured to process up to 24 tissue samples, with reagent volumes scaled down to reduce reagent consumption, lower processing costs and minimise waste. The purified DNA is suitable for downstream genomic analysis, including long read sequencing with Oxford Nanopore and PacBio technologies.

This MyraScript is available upon request. If you are interested in using this workflow in your laboratory, please contact support@biomolecularsystems.com to request a copy of the script.

Please note that this script has not yet undergone our full review and documentation process. Additional review, optimisation or validation may be required to ensure suitability for your specific application and laboratory setup.
