NUCLEIC ACID EXTRACTION MATERIALS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

Abstract:

An example of a nucleic acid extraction material includes a substrate. The nucleic acid extraction material also includes a polycation bonded to at least a portion of a surface of the substrate. The polycation consists of a polymer of a quaternized monomer selected from the group consisting of a quaternized 1-vinylimidazole monomer and a quaternized dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate monomer, or a copolymer of a neutral monomer and the quaternized monomer.
