Abstract
Nucleic acid is captured from a mixture of cellular debris produced by cell lysis by exposing the mixture to an electrode and applying a nucleic acid capturing voltage to the electrode which is then removed from the mixture carrying said nucleic acid. The nucleic acid is undamaged and can be amplified by PCR.
