We also formally demonstrated that the addition of Tween in the elution buffer resulted in more complex libraries.

It represents an alternative to costly robotisation and can generate 96 extracts within a few hours of lab work!

We used a 96-column plate for downscaled aDNA extractions, compared it to routine single columns and retrieved similar screening metrics.
