Extraction method for nucleic acids

Abstract

A method (100) of extracting nucleic acids is disclosed. The method includes receiving a sample containing nucleic acids to be extracted. The method (100) includes lysing cells in the sample to release the nucleic acids. The method (100) also includes introducing the released nucleic acids to a substrate, wherein the nucleic acids bind to the substrate. The method (100) includes washing the substrate bound to the nucleic acids and eluting the nucleic acids from the substrate. The introducing of the released nucleic acids to the substrate. the washing of the substrate bound to the nucleic acids, and the eluting of the nucleic acids are performed in a pipette tip.
