Abstract
The invention provides the use of water-miscible liquid cyclic acetals for adsorbing a nucleic acid to a solid phase such as a substrate with a silica surface. To this end, the invention also provides compositions comprising said acetals. Methods are disclosed and claimed to purify nucleic acids from samples, as well as kits useful for performing these methods. The nucleic acids purified by a method of the invention are suited for assays aiming at the detection of a target nucleic acid.
