DNA-Depleted Plasma

Applications of DNA-Depleted Human Plasma
DNA-depleted human plasma is essential in various scenarios where the presence of background DNA could interfere with the accuracy and reliability of results. Here are some key applications:
  1. Cell-Free DNA (cfDNA) Analysis: Ideal for liquid biopsy research in cancer diagnostics and monitoring, DNA-depleted plasma ensures that only cfDNA is detected, significantly improving assay accuracy.
  2. Assay Development and Validation: Ideal matrix for liquid biopsy assay development in cancer diagnostics and monitoring, DNA-depleted plasma ensures that cfDNA is detected with authentic accuracy, precision and assay linearity in complicated human plasma environment.
  3. Pathogen DNA Detection: Crucial for detecting true copies of viral or bacterial DNA in plasma matrix, DNA-depleted plasma reduces the risk of false positives caused by background contaminating DNA from unknown . Crucial for detecting true copies of viral or bacterial DNA in plasma matrix, DNA-depleted plasma reduces the risk of false positives caused by background contaminating DNA from unknown .
  4. Quality Control: Used to create reference materials that mimic patient samples without the variability introduced by background DNA, ensuring consistent and reliable performance of diagnostic tests.
  5. Research on Host-Pathogen Interactions: Facilitates studies focusing on the interactions between host and pathogen DNA by clearly distinguishing between the two, leading to more precise research outcomes.
Using DNA-depleted plasma in these scenarios enhances the specificity, sensitivity, and overall reliability of molecular testing and research.

Build your own controls using your high-positive samples to save time. With our DNA-depleted human plasma (DNA-free plasma) as a matrix, you can produce reference materials specific to your time-sensitive needs while retaining the natural components of the sample. The DNA-depleted plasma is made from a pool of plasma from at least 30 patients.

Why Is Plasma Better Than Buffer As Reference Material Matrix?

A plasma matrix is a better representation of a real patient sample because the natural, interfering proteins are retained. This allows for a more realistic process in your quality system.


Equal amounts of DNA fragments were spiked into TE Buffer (blue) and human plasma (red).

While the 170 bp peak was recovered similarly in each matrix, much more genomic DNA was extracted from the plasma than from the TE buffer resulting in a more patient-like matrix.

A significant portion of florescence signal actually comes from protein contamination
