The use of carrier RNA to enhance DNA extraction from microfluidic-based silica monoliths (2009)
Journal Article
Shaw, K. J., Thain, L., Dyer, C., Docker, P. T., Greenman, J., Greenway, G. M., & Haswell, S. J. (2009). The use of carrier RNA to enhance DNA extraction from microfluidic-based silica monoliths. Analytica Chimica Acta, 652(1-2), 231-233. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aca.2009.03.038

DNA extraction was carried out on silica-based monoliths within a microfluidic device. Solid-phase DNA extraction methodology was applied in which the DNA binds to silica in the presence of a chaotropic salt, such as guanidine hydrochloride, and is e...

Development of a bi-functional silica monolith for electro-osmotic pumping and DNA clean-up/extraction using gel-supported reagents in a microfluidic device. Lab on a chip, 9(11), 1596-1600. https://doi.org/10.1039/b820553a

A silica monolith used to support both electro-osmotic pumping (EOP) and the extraction/elution of DNA coupled with gel-supported reagents is described. The benefits of the combined EOP extraction/elution system were illustrated by combining DNA extr...
