1. A kit for purification of nucleic acids comprising:
- a resin source plate containing anion exchange resin, wherein said anion exchange resin comprises amine-terminated magnetic beads, and wherein each of said amine-terminated magnetic beads comprises a magnetic bead linked to at least one amine molecule;
a sample mixing plate;
a filter plate or a microtube rack comprising a plurality of micro filter tubes;
one or more resin wash solutions; and
an electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry-compatible elution buffer, wherein said elution buffer does not comprise a metal cation salt.
