BioStringTM PureSol Blood DNA Kit was validated using multiple blood sample types, including 1 mL human anticoagulated blood, 10 mL human anticoagulated blood, long-term stored anticoagulated blood, 5 mL porcine anticoagulated blood and pre-homogenized coagulated porcine blood. The extracted DNA showed A260/280 values of approximately 1.8–2.0, supporting reliable protein removal and DNA purity in large-volume blood DNA extraction workflows.
DNA yield increased with blood input volume and sample type. In the tested conditions, 1 mL human blood produced approximately 39 µg DNA, 10 mL human blood produced more than 300 µg DNA, and 5 mL porcine blood produced approximately 398–412 µg DNA. Stored and coagulated blood samples also produced recoverable DNA when appropriate pretreatment was used.
Agarose gel electrophoresis showed high-molecular-weight genomic DNA bands above 23 kb without obvious smearing, indicating good DNA integrity. PCR validation using human PP1 primers and porcine-specific primers further confirmed that the purified DNA was suitable for downstream amplification workflows.
