DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PURIFICATION OF BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS

摘要

An apparatus, method and kit for isolating a biomolecule from a sample. The sample comprises a complex biological material, which includes insoluble matter. Some embodiments of the apparatus and kit include a reservoir and means for capturing the biomolecule either contained within or coupled to the reservoir. The reservoir can have an inner surface, and can be adapted to contain the sample. The apparatus can further include least one of a filter positioned between the means for capturing the biomolecule and at least a portion of the inner surface of the reservoir, and an aperture defined in the inner surface of the reservoir. Some embodiments of the method include combining the sample. with a solid phase that is adapted to capture the biomolecule, removing the insoluble matter from the sample, and removing the biomolecule from the solid phase.
