DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus™ – No Traces, No Risk

Effective DNA & RNA Decontamination for Molecular Biology and Forensic Applications
Even the smallest amounts of DNA or RNA on lab surfaces, equipment, or reaction vessels can significantly compromise analysis results—especially in PCR, qPCR, or Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS). DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus™ provides a reliable and safe solution for the complete removal of free nucleic acids – without toxic or corrosive side effects.

🔬 Why Is DNA/RNA Decontamination So Crucial in the Lab?

In molecular biology or forensic laboratories, contamination control is essential. Even trace DNA can lead to false-positive results or interfere with sensitive analyses. Traditional cleaning methods—such as autoclaving—often fall short.

With DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus™, you get a highly effective decontamination agent designed for the needs of modern laboratories: safe, efficient, and sustainable.

✅ Benefits of DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus™ at a Glance

Rapid and complete degradation of free DNA & RNA
Non-enzymatic & sequence-independent mode of action via catalytically cooperative effects
Safe for users and equipment – no toxic fumes, harmful substances, or corrosion
Biodegradable & eco-friendly – ideal for sustainable lab practices
Free from aggressive chemicals – contains no strong acids, bases, azides, or peroxides

Everyday Lab Use: Purity for Every Analysis

DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus™ is used wherever molecular purity is critical:

Surface cleaning in molecular biology labs
Decontamination of pipettes, thermocyclers, reaction tubes
Preparing workspaces for PCR/qPCR or NGS
Forensic lab cleaning – without risk of DNA reactivation

💡 Scientifically Proven: Extensive PCR tests confirm that no amplifiable DNA remains after use.

Autoclaving Isn’t Enough – The Solution: Autoclave-ExitusPlus™

Many labs rely on autoclaving to destroy DNA – but studies show DNA can remain intact and amplifiable, especially when encapsulated in cell structures.

👉 Autoclave-ExitusPlus™ is specifically designed to safely destroy DNA in media and cell cultures during autoclaving – for maximum security.

⚙️ Technical Edge: Gentle Yet Powerful Cleaning

No corrosion – even sensitive surfaces like stainless steel or aluminum stay protected
Long-lasting effect with no residues – perfect for daily use
Compatible with delicate lab equipment – protects your investment

🌿 Sustainable Solution for Modern Laboratories

DNA/RNA-ExitusPlus™ contains only biodegradable ingredients, making it the ideal choice for labs prioritizing safety, sustainability, and environmental awareness.
