Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to a soil microorganism DNA extraction kit and an extraction method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Most of the microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi in soil are not cultivable, but with the rapid development of NGS (high-throughput sequencing) technology in recent years, especially the macro-genome sequencing and amplicon sequencing technologies based on NGS technology, the analysis of microorganism community structure can be realized without the separation and cultivation of soil microorganisms.

[0003] Due to the complex types of soil samples, especially the humic acid substances in soil, which are difficult to effectively remove in the extraction process, humus has physical and chemical properties similar to nucleic acids. Therefore, most of the humus is separated together with the adsorbed organic molecules and the DNA. Humic acid has a great inhibitory effect on subsequent biological enzyme involved analysis, such as PCR amplification, endonuclease digestion, high-throughput sequencing, etc. In most macro-genome studies, it is a great challenge to separate high-purity macro-genome DNA without humus from soil samples of various sources. The basis of NGS technology is the extraction of DNA, and the existing soil microorganism DNA extraction process is relatively cumbersome and low in efficiency, so it cannot balance the DNA extraction efficiency and DNA extraction quality.
