Description
ISOSPIN Plant DNA is a kit for the extraction and purification of DNA from plant leaves.
This kit employs a Centrifuge-based method that effectively removes impurities, enabling the extraction of high-purity DNA even from plant samples containing large amounts of polyphenols and viscous substances, which have traditionally been difficult to process.
Product features
- Efficient DNA extraction from highly viscous Rosaceae plant tissues
- No need for phenol or chloroform
- Proprietary spin column ensures excellent usability
- RNase A included
Protocol

DNA extraction from cedar needles

DNA was extracted from cedar needles following the ISOSPIN Plant DNA kit manual.
To obtain high-purity DNA:
- Add Prewash Buffer and grind the leaf tissue thoroughly with a pestle until it is completely disrupted (see photo).
- After the Prewash step, carefully pipette out and discard the supernatant, which is highly viscous and stringy.
- Continue with the protocol (starting from the PE2 Buffer addition and centrifugation step).When collecting the supernatant, transfer it carefully to a new microcentrifuge tube, avoiding the pellet and any precipitates on the surface as much as possible. For cedar samples, collect approximately 350 µL of supernatant.
| sample | PreWash | Amount | ng/μL | A260/A280 | A260/A230 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cedar needles | 12.1 mg | 26.3 | 1.81 | 2.62 | |
| 14.6 mg | 25.7 | 1.82 | 2.20 | ||

FAQ
- Can I extract DNA from samples other than plant leaves?
- Yes. We have successfully extracted DNA from husk, chestnut (cotyledon), sweet potato, and beech mushroom (stem).
- How should I perform re-purification of a DNA solution that was crudely extracted from a plant sample using this kit?
- Please follow the protocol below:
Re-purification Protocol
Prepare the DNA solution (≤100 µL)
↓←450 μL of PE1 Buffer
↓[←5 μL of RNase A (100mg/mL), mix well, and incubate at room temperature for 10 minutes] *
↓←50 μL of PE2 Buffer and vortex for at least 20 seconds
Centrifuge (13,000×g, for 10 minutes, 4℃)
↓
Transfer the supernatant to a new microcentrifuge tube
↓←Add an equal volume of PB Buffer and mix by inversion until homogeneous
↓
Centrifuge (13,000×g, for 30 seconds, 4℃)
↓
Transfer the mixture to a new microcentrifuge tube
↓
Apply 900 µL of the mixture to the spin column
(Continue following the standard protocol described in the manual)
*If the DNA solution has already been treated with RNase, the RNase A treatment step (enzyme addition and 10-minute incubation at room temperature) can be omitted.
- Can I extract DNA from mushrooms?
- Yes. We have successfully extracted DNA from Flammulina velutipes (enoki mushroom), Hypsizygus marmoreus (beech mushroom), and Pholiota microspora (nameko mushroom).
Since mushrooms exhibit strong DNA-degrading activity, we recommend adding 20 µL of Proteinase K (20 mg/mL) after the RNase A treatment step.
