Abstract
The present invention relates to a highly automatable method for isolation and/or purification of nucleic acids from a biological sample, which is particularly suitable for nucleic acids-shorter than 250 bp and can be performed without a proteolytic pre-digestion step in an automated system, preferably a cartridge-based system. In a further aspect, the present invention also provides automated nucleic acid detection methods based on said isolation and/or purification method, as well as buffers and kits to be used in performing said methods.
