The invention relates to a device and a method for eluting, purifying and recovering oversized
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) based on pulsed field
gel electrophoresis, which are used for efficiently recovering complete
DNA molecules from hundred kb level to Mb level. The device comprises an
electrophoresis protection chamber with a polygonal container structure and a sample
recovery chamber, the side edge of the protection chamber is provided with a semi-permeable membrane for current to pass through, and the
recovery chamber is detachably placed in the center and comprises the semi-permeable membrane; the detachable and replaceable
magnesium sheet is arranged in the protection chamber and is used for ionizing
magnesium ions to promote
DNA (
Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid) compression; the method comprises the following steps: preparing a biological sample into an
agarose gel block,
cracking and cleaning the
agarose gel block, placing the
agarose gel block in a device, and adding a
recovery protection solution containing PEG; under the condition of pulsed field
gel electrophoresis, DNA migrates out of a gel block and is combined with
magnesium ions to be compressed into spheres, and the spheres are collected in a recovery chamber after charges are neutralized. Compared with the prior art, the method provided by the invention overcomes the defects of low product purity and tedious steps of a traditional
recovery method, realizes high-purity and high-efficiency integrated recovery, and is suitable for
genomics research and
biotechnology application.
