3 Introduction The UltraClean Forensic DNA Isolation is designed to isolate high quality DNA from forensic samples that can be used in sensitive downstream applications such as PCR. Each DNA isolation is performed using individually packaged, single-use reagents and kit components. The possibility of foreign DNA contamination is eliminated because the reagents are treated with a procedure specially designed to render the kit components DNA-Free. This procedure destroys any sources of extraneous DNA prior to opening the package. With this kit, genomic and mitochondrial DNA can be isolated from many different sample types including whole blood, blood stains, feces, buccal cells and most bodily fluids. All samples are treated by lysing cellular components and binding the released DNA to a silica spin filter. Protein and other cellular contaminants are removed by washing the filter. The DNA is recovered by eluting into our certified DNA- Free Solution F5. This kit is for research purposes only. Not for diagnostic use.

Storage The Proteinase K Solution is stable at room temperature. For prolonged storage, place the Proteinase K Solution at 4ºC. Store all other reagents and kit components at room temperature (15-30 C). Precautions Please wear gloves when using this product. Avoid all skin contact with kit reagents. In case of contact, wash thoroughly with water. Do not ingest. See Material Safety Data Sheets for emergency procedures in case of accidental ingestion or contact. All MSDS information is available upon request ( ) or at Reagents labeled flammable should be kept away from open flames and sparks. The Center for Disease Control, the Food and Drug Administration, and the American Hospital Association recommend universal precautions when working with blood and body fluids. To prevent contact with potentially infectious pathogens, it is recommended that workers protect themselves from contact with these fluids by using suitable barrier protection which includes gloves. Effective barrier protection should be used during this procedure. Any supplies or equipment utilized during the procedure (not provided with the kit) should be qualified as DNA-Free. WARNING: Solution F2, F3 and F4 contain ethanol and are considered flammable. IMPORTANT NOTE FOR USE: Take care to ensure that solutions in this kit avoid contact with bleach or other oxidizers. 4

5 Protocol Please wear gloves at all times. For handling all volumes 200 µl and below, please use the DNA-Free 200 µl pipet tips provided. For handling all volumes above 200 µl, please use the DNA-Free 1 ml pipet tips provided 1. To process blood stains or other soiled materials, punch out sample needed and put in 2 ml Collection Tube (provided). For body fluids, add up to 200 µl of sample to 2 ml Collection Tube (provided). For swabs, put in 2 ml Collection Tube (provided). 2. Add 20 µl of Proteinase K Solution. Optional Step: RNase A can be added at this step if required. Use 2 µl of a 20 mg/ml solution (not provided). 3. Add 200 µl of Solution F1. For stained samples, a pestle may be needed to remove the imbedded sample. For swabs, swirl around swab in tube and incubate for 5 minutes at room temperature. Remove swab after incubation step. 4. Vortex for 15 seconds. 5. Incubate at 65 C for minutes. Remove soiled material and punched out sample holes if applicable. 6. Centrifuge briefly to remove any drops of solution from the top of the lid. 7. Add 200 µl of Solution F2 and vortex for 15 seconds. 8. Centrifuge briefly to remove any drops from the top of the lid. 9. Transfer all of the solution mixture to the Spin Filter. 10. Centrifuge 1 minute at 13,000 x g. 11. Transfer Spin Filter to a new 2 ml Collection Tube (provided). 12. Add 500 µl of Solution F3 to Spin Filter. 13. Centrifuge 30 seconds at 13,000 x g. 14. Remove Spin Filter, discard flow through solution, and replace Spin Filter. 15. Add 500 µl of Solution F4 to Spin Filter. 16. Centrifuge 30 seconds at 13,000 x g. 17. Remove Spin Filter, discard flow through solution, and replace Spin Filter. 18. Centrifuge again for 30 seconds at 13,000 x g. 19. Carefully remove Spin Filter and transfer to a new 2 ml Collection Tube (provided) without it coming in contact with the solution. 20. Add 200 µl of Solution F5. To increase yields, incubate for 5 minutes at 65 C. 21. Centrifuge 1 minute at 13,000 x g. 22. Remove filter unit and close tube lid. DNA in tube is now ready to use for any application. We recommend storing DNA frozen (-20 to -80 C). Solution F5 contains no EDTA. Thank you for choosing the UltraClean Forensic DNA Isolation. 5

6 Hints and Troubleshooting Guide Amount to Process This kit is capable of processing 200 l of bodily fluids or up to 3 hole punches of imbedded samples in fabric or paper. One swab containing buccal cells or saliva can also be processed. Concentrating the DNA Your final volume will be 200 l. If this is too dilute for your purposes, add 8 l of 5M NaCl and mix. Add 400 l of 100% cold ethanol and mix. Centrifuge at 13,000 x g for 5 minutes. Decant all liquid. Dry residual ethanol in a speed vac, dessicator, or air dry. Resuspend precipitated DNA in desired volume. Low Recovery If samples are not mixed well after adding Solution F1, there will be incomplete lysis and consequently lower yields. It is very important to vortex well at this step in the protocol (step 4). DNA Floats Out of Well When Loaded on a Gel You may have inadvertently transferred some residual Solution F4 into the final sample. Prevent this by being careful in step 19 not to transfer liquid onto the bottom of the spin filter basket. Ethanol precipitation is the best way to remove Solution F4 residue. (See Concentrating the DNA above) Storing DNA DNA is eluted in Solution F5 (10mM Tris) and must be stored at -20 to 80 C or it may degrade over time. DNA can be eluted in TE but the EDTA may inhibit reactions such as PCR and automated sequencing. DNA may also be eluted with sterile DNA-Free PCR Grade Water (MO BIO Catalog# ). 6
