BioEcho develops single-spin and 96-well kits for the isolation of DNA from different starting materials. In contrast to common bind-wash-elute procedures their proprietary EchoLUTION single-step technology avoids the use of inhibitory or harmful process reagents and does not require washing steps.
Many users in research labs like to store their assay components such as assay antibodies, conjugates, antigens, calibrators or coated ELISA plates for a while without losing functionality.
BioEcho develops single-spin and 96-well kits for the isolation of DNA from different starting materials. Their proprietary EchoLUTION single-step technology avoids the use of inhibitory process reagents while using dedicated efficient lysis reagents for e.g. different plant tissues. In contrast to common bind-wash-elute procedures, the process does not require washing steps. The inhibitor-free DNA enables lowered time-to-result in enzyme-dependent genomic analyses such as PCR or NGS.
