Abstract:
A method comprises: sorbing a sample solution comprising nucleic acids to a sample receiving portion of a quartz fiber filter by contacting the sample solution with the sample receiving portion; and washing the sample receiving portion while keeping most of nucleic acids around the sample receiving portion by flowing a wash solution through the sample receiving portion under a wicking force directed away from the sample receiving portion. An associated apparatus is also provided.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus, comprising:\n a quartz fiber filter comprising: a sample receiving portion for sorbing a sample solution comprising nucleic acids by contacting with the sample solution and keeping most of nucleic acids around the sample receiving portion after a wash solution flowing therethrough under a wicking force directed away from the sample receiving portion; wherein the quartz fiber filter comprises a wash portion spatially distant from the sample receiving portion; and wherein the quartz fiber filter is an elongated strip comprising a first end, the wash portion, the sample receiving portion, and a second end, the wash portion is located closer to the first end than to the second end and the sample receiving portion is located closer to the second end than the wash portion.
