Abridged solid-phase extraction with alkaline Poly(ethylene) glycol lysis (ASAP) for direct DNA amplification.

Complexity of sample preparation decelerate the development of sample-in-answer-out devices for point-of-need nucleic acid amplification testing. Here, we present the consolidation of alkaline poly(ethylene) glycol-based lysis and solid-phase extraction for rapid and simple sample preparation compatible with direct on-bead amplification. Simultaneous cell lysis and binding of DNA were achieved using an optimised reagent comprising 15% PEG8000, 0.
