HMW DNA ExtractionWith Fire Monkey and Fire Flower, the long-read DNA sequencing revolution starts with RevoluGen
RevoluGen’s Nucleic Acid Isolation and Purification (NAIP) Fire Monkey kit is the only technology that allows extraction and simultaneous size selection of long-length DNA fragments, which are critical for long-read DNA sequencing.
Improves long-read sequencing results – longer DNA fragment extraction by Fire Monkey technology allows for better structural assembly information
Rapid – Fire Monkey can extract and purify long fragments of DNA within one hour and is ready for immediate use
User-friendly Fire Monkey is a simple spin-column procedure, using standard laboratory equipment
Fire Monkey’s built-in size selection process eliminates one damaging sample handling step post-extraction. This saves time and protects long DNA fragments from further traumatic breaks
Facilitates complete bacterial genome plus full plasmid assembly in a single contig due to the combination of long DNA fragments and high throughput sequencing yields
Validated on Oxford Nanopore, PacBio, and 10X genomics sequencing platforms
Watch our Fire Monkey animation showing how our NAIP technology is upgrading and revolutionizing the critical first step in DNA sequencing.
Fire Monkey extracts high molecular weight DNA from bacterial and mammalian cells within one hour.
Fire Monkey is a rapid and user-friendly spin-column nucleic acid isolation and purification kit. It extracts pure high molecular weight DNA and RNA from a cell sample with an average length of 100,000 base pairs or more, incorporating a simultaneous size depletion function that reduces the amount of smaller DNA fragments present in the final extract.
Longer starting DNA is essential to long-read DNA sequencing and long-range PCR.
RevoluGen has developed and validated an automated protocol for Fire Monkey/Fire Flower. The automated protocal uses a multi-well filter plate format that enables high volume throughput and multiplexed hands-free HMW-DNA extraction. The commercial launch of this automated Fire Monkey/ Fire Flower is anticipated soon. To become a test site or to discuss automated applications, get in touch
