Features of the PowerViral™ Environmental RNA/DNA Isolation Kit include:

• Optimized for challenging samples – Isolate viral and bacterial RNA & DNA­ from waste water, stool, biosolids and gut material
• Inhibitor Removal Technology® – Eliminates inhibitory substances, including polysaccharides, lipids and heme for pure nucleic acids that are ready to use in downstream applications
• Optional bead beating protocol­– Available with Glass Bead Tubes for optimal lysis of solid samples and bacterial cells or without bead tubes for isolation of viral nucleic acids from liquid samples

The PowerViral™ Environmental RNA/DNA Isolation Kit is available now. For more information, visit the MO BIO website (http://www.mobio.com/pages/powerviral.html) or call 800-606-6246.
