DNA extraction of farm field soil with SPINeasy DNA Kit for Soil (Cat. No. 116530050)

Growing problems with farm field soil samples

The farm field soil sample is rich in both biological contents from microbials and small living organisms and chemical content from fertilizers and additives. The DNA extraction in the study of the quality of farm soil may be disrupted by unwanted contaminants and inhibitors that will affect both the quality and quantity for the DNA extracted.

MP Biomedicals shared on how SPINeasy DNA Kit for Soil (Cat. No. 116530050)can help to simplify the DNA extraction 's process, improve on the quality and quantity of the DNA extracted which will  improve with  the qPCR result downstream.

Overview

Sample Name:

Farm field Soil

Sample Type:

Soil


Featured Materials: 

 

 

Methods

Sample was prepared in order of protocol in accordance to product guidelines found here.

 


Outcome

Trial results data

 

100g of soils were inoculated with same amount of fungal spores.
DNA was isolated from soil samples using soil DNA extraction kits by column membrane method and glass milk method respectively.
The results of qPCR assay by two methods agree well.
 
 
 

 

 

Conclusion

Key takeaways:

The protocol is simple and easy to follow. In the study, a similar amount of fungal spores was added to control group. DNA was extracted from both the control and test groups with SPINeasy DNA kit for Soil and then analysed through qPCR. The similar CT values in both groups indicated that SPINeasy DNA extraction kit achieved high recovery and high purity of DNA.
