An apparatus and method for extracting a nucleic acid comprising a hollow body, preferably a pipette tip, through which a liquid is conducted, wherein a material having a rough surface or a structured surface in the hollow body has a liquid around it. An apparatus and method characterized by being arranged to flow. After dissolving the sample and adjusting the binding conditions necessary for the adsorption of nucleic acids to the carrier material, the batch is pipetted many times through the pipetting process to bind the nucleic acid vertically accommodated in the pipette tip. “Pipeting by the side”. Nucleic acids bind to the material. Thereafter, optionally the wash buffer is "pipetted through" the material that also binds the nucleic acid. Thereafter, a drying step is performed. Finally, the eluent is again "pipetted through" the material that binds vertically arranged nucleic acids again, in this case the bound nucleic acids are pulled apart. The nucleic acid is currently present for the required subsequent use. |
