Product Description

The VersaKit™ Plus Fecal offers a comprehensive solution for the simultaneous extraction of DNA and RNA from stool or gut samples. Utilizing a proprietary protocol with Inhibitor Cleanup Technology, this kit efficiently separates RNA and DNA into different eluates, making it ideal for metagenomic and metatranscriptomic analyses.

Featuring optimized lysis chemistry and bead-beating technology, the kit ensures high yields of high-quality DNA and RNA from challenging samples containing inhibitory substances such as polysaccharides, heme compounds, and bile salts. The extracted nucleic acids are suitable for downstream applications including PCR, RT-PCR, qPCR, and next-generation sequencing (NGS) such as 16S rRNA sequencing, metagenome, and metatranscriptome analysis.

The VersaKit™ Plus Fecal allows for the simultaneous purification of microbial DNA and RNA from stool samples, ensuring comprehensive microbial analysis without the need for multiple purification steps. The kit is a complete solution from sample collection to extraction. Stool samples can be stabilized at room temperature, preserving the integrity of nucleic acids until processing.
