Auto-Mag® PCR-Pure

• Rapid and reliable post-PCR and DNA clean-up reagent
• No protocol change against major competitors
• High recovery of amplicons or dsDNA fragments greater than 100bp
• Efficient removal of unincorporated dNTPs, primers, primer dimers, salts and other contaminants
• Predictable and consistent DNA size selection and uniform fragments size distribution
• Adaptable to high throughput liquid handling workstations
• Significant cost savings

Auto-Mag® PCR-Pure Reagent utilizes advanced paramagnetic bead technology to enable efficient purification of PCR amplicons and precise size selection of DNA fragments, making it ideal for next-generation sequencing (NGS) library preparation.

With Auto-Mag® PCR-Pure, DNA fragments selectively bind to magnetic beads, while primers, dNTPs, and salts are effectively removed through simple wash steps. The resulting highly purified DNA is eluted in a low-salt buffer or water, ready for immediate use in downstream applications such as NGS library construction, Sanger sequencing, cloning, restriction digestion, adapter ligation, and microarray analysis.

Designed for versatility, Auto-Mag® PCR-Pure is compatible with both manual workflows and automated systems, offering a streamlined, reliable, and cost-effective solution for all DNA purification needs.

PCR amplicon/DNA fragment purification Workflow

1. Bind DNA to magnetic beads
2. Separate beads from contaminants
3. Wash magnetic beads with 70% ethanol to remove contaminants
4. Elute DNA from magnetic beads
5. Transfer to new storage vessels

Comparison of purification and size selection on 20μl of DNA ladder mix at 1.8x ratio set using  Auto-Mag® PCR-Pure reagent and  AMPure XP reagents following manufacturer’s recommended protocols. The purified DNA was eluted in 20μl and analyzed on Agilent's Tapestation® 2200. The results show that both  reagents provide predictable performance while maintaining efficient and similar recovery.
