Fig. 3

The performance of cfDNA extraction in the PIBEX chip compared to the commercial product QIAamp. a DNA recovery rates according to input of fragment DNA was investigated in three experiments. b Purity of final eluents was compared by absorbance ratio at A260/280 (n = 5). c Relative efficiency of cfDNA extraction in healthy plasma sample was measured by real-time PCR with the four reference genes: TERT, NAGK, RPPH1, and GAPDH. The relative efficiency was calculated based on cfDNA extraction in QIAamp (n = 8). d Size analysis of extracted DNA from human plasma of healthy control was measured by microelectrophoresis. The error bars indicate standard deviation.
