Rapid and simple purification of high-quality DNA from livestock samples

sbeadex™ Lightning delivers ultra-fast DNA purification from livestock material using a novel binding principle that enables simultaneous DNA binding and washing.  

The patent-pending magnetic bead technology reduces the purification workflow from a 5-step to a 3-step process, typically requiring only 5 minutes from lysate to eluate. This innovation saves up to 40 minutes per run while minimising liquid and plastic waste, all without compromising yield or DNA quality.

Why switch to Lightning?

  • High-quality, high-yield DNA: Reliable performance for all downstream applications (e.g. targeted GBS, microarrays).
  • Efficient & scalable processing: All sample types are purified using the same streamlined 3-step process, which is easily automated and completed in just 5 minutes. 
  • Cost-effective: Reduced protocol steps cuts lab costs (e.g. plastics, FTE) while ensuring reproducibility. 
  • Eco-friendly: Minimises plastic, liquid and packaging waste. 
  • Ready-to-use & stable: All room-temperature stable reagents included.

The livestock kit was tested with various livestock sample types

  • Tissue in preservation solution
  • Hair
  • Fish clips
  • Swabs

Eco-friendly DNA purification

Thanks to fewer protocol steps, sbeadex Lightning is an environmentally friendly chemistry that reduces:

  • plastic consumption 
  • hazardous buffer waste 
  • packaging 
  • energy costs. 

Fewer steps means less waste for lower ecological impact and an improved carbon footprint. 

*Savings on buffers and consumables, based on processing 1 million samples per year
