MinElute columns can also be used on any vacuum manifold with luer connectors (e.g., QIAvac 24 Plus or QIAvac 6S with Luer Adapters). The following protocol is designed to extract and purify DNA of 70 bp to 4 kb from standard or low-melt agarose gels in TAE or TBE buffer using vacuum-driven processing resulting in high end-concentrations of DNA. Up to 400 mg agarose can be processed per MinElute column.
