How to extract cell-free DNA (cfDNA)?
Figure 1. cfDNA Extraction workflow.
- Lyse: Lyse plasma sample.
- Bind & Capture: Mix MagVigen™ nanoparticles with sample. Nanoparticles bind to the cfDNA fragments.
- Pellet & Re-disperse 1: Magnetic pellet the beads until the solution is clear. The beads respond to a magnetic force (by use of a magnet, e.g. magnetic separation rack), allowing bound material to be rapidly and efficiently separated from the rest of the sample. Remove supernatant (unbound materials) by aspiration, what remains is the nanoparticle-bound targets. Then re-disperse beads pellet in Wash 1 Buffer.
- Transfer: Transfer Wash 1 Solution to 1.5 or 2ml tube.
- Pellet & Re-disperse 2: Magnetic pelleting, remove supernatant as in step 3. This time re-disperse the beads pellet in 75% Ethanol.
- Wash & Pellet 2,3: Wash the beads pellet using 75% Ethanol. Pellet the beads and remove all supernatant. Re-disperse the beads pellet in 75% Ethanol. Do this step twice.
- Elute: Final elution of high quality cfDNA. Ready for downstream NGS, PCR or other Applications.
2 times of elution can help improve cfDNA yield.
Please refer to the K61003 Product Sheet for further detailed steps.
MagVigen™ cfDNA Extraction workflow can be scaled up linearly from 100 µl to 10 ml of plasma input samples. cfDNA isolated with MagVigen™ cfDNA Extraction kit presents high quality for downstream PCR or sequencing assays. The yield and quality of extracted cfDNA can be significantly better than other methods on market.
And MagVigen™ allows simple and efficient DNA extraction ideal for automation. Learn more about cfDNA/ctDNA in Cancer Detection, Surveillance and Treatment.

Figure 12. Much better differentiation between patient plasma and normal plasma was achieved using MagVigen cfDNA extraction followed by sequence specific target capture with MagVigen-Streptavidin nanobeads vs. MyOne-Streptavidin beads. The qPCR Ct differences between patient and normal plasma samples were over 9 when using MagVigen-Streptavidin Nanobeads (Cat# K61002) and less than 2 when using MyOne-Streptavidin beads, corresponding to over 100x better differentiation power when referring to ctDNA copy numbers of the original plasma samples of 2^9 vs. 2^2.
