Abstract

The present invention provides a method of extracting virus genes, which is excellent in quickness and convenience and can be automated, and this invention also provides an apparatus for such extraction of virus genes. A conductive hollow fiber membrane (module)is immersed in a virus suspensionand thus viral particles suspended in the virus suspensionare captured in the conductive hollow fiber membrane (module). The coating of the thus captured virus is lysed and the virus genes are released. Next, the virus genes are collected by subjecting the conductive hollow fiber membrane (module)to at least one of an electrical treatment and a physical treatment.
