摘要 |
Processes for extracting nucleic acid from a biological sample and related assemblies and kits are disclosed. The processes comprise the steps of (a) providing a device comprising an inner surface, an outer surface, a first port, and a second port, wherein the inner surface is composed of unmodified, smooth glass and defines a tubular lumen providing fluid communication between the first port and second port, wherein the lumen is circular, oval, or elliptical in cross-section, and wherein the lumen is essentially free of nucleic acid-specific binding sites; (b) introducing a nucleic acid-containing sample into the lumen of the device via the first port; (c) allowing nucleic acid in the sample to bind to the unmodified smooth glass surface; and (d) washing the bound nucleic acid. |
