Qiagen high speed maxi (Sudheendra Rao N R)

Hello!
Is the column for the maxi prep a silica membrane like for other DNA purification kits? If so, then different yields could be explained easily becausethe silica gel is a natural product of varying quality. But anyway, it should not be possible that special lots lead to zero-yield but lower yields.
Cheers,
Niko

No, Qiagen's Maxi prep sorbent is a very high capacity DEAE
anion exchanger. That's why you elute DNA with high salt.
It's all in the booklet that comes with a kit.
