ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a sample processing method for rendering cellular components such as nucleic acids in a sample accessible. The method involves subjecting a sample of disrupted cells to sufficient agitation in the presence of particles to separate nucleic acids from other cellular components. A heat lysis process without other lysogenic agents or conditions is the preferred method of disrupting cells for the sample. Once accessed, the nucleic acids may be used in various molecular biology procedures.
