Abstract
Elutips are essentially minicolumns of reverse-phase resin that offer an extremely rapid method for DNA purification and may often replace conventional techniques for manipulation of DNA. The Elutip-d columns commercially available are manufactured by Schleicher and Schuell. Each column consists of a pipet tip, such as may be used on a 0–200 µL automatic pipet, that is filled with an insoluble matrix.
