Shoreline Biome, a microbiome research company that develops tools for characterizing microbiome populations down to the strain level, today announced that the company will debut a novel new DNA isolation kit at the Miami Winter Symposium 2020, taking place January 26-29.

The new product, Shoreline Biome’s Rapid Prep kit, is a fast and easy-to-use kit designed for the efficient and unbiased isolation of high molecular weight (HMW) single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) in excess of 40KB from Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial and fungal cultures. The ssDNA output is ideal for downstream PCR applications targeting specific microbial, fungal, or mammalian genes of interest.

Additionally, the company will present a poster at the Symposium in collaboration with researchers from West Virginia University School of Medicine.

Shoreline Biome’s poster presentation, “Sustained Gut Dysbiosis Following Experimental Sepsis in Alzheimer’s Disease Transgenic Mice,” is scheduled for Monday, January 27, from 1:30–2:30 p.m. The poster presents research conducted by Allison L. Brichacek, Divine C. Nwafor, Dawn Gratalo, Mark D. Driscoll, and Candice M. Brown. The session will be presented by Brichacek, a student in Brown’s lab at West Virginia University School of Medicine.

Shoreline Biome will also be an exhibitor at the Symposium.
