The invention relates to a method for purification of viral RNA from a biological sample. The method involves lysing the virus envelope to liberate the RNA and passing the lysate through a porous hydrophilic polyvinylidine fluoride (PVDF) filter to capture the viral RNA. The filter with bound RNA is then washed to remove proteins, lipids and other contaminants. The RNA is released from the filter using a low ionic strength ribonuclease (RNase) free solution to form a solution containing purified viral RNA. From this solution the RNA is recovered. The invention is also compatible with purification of nucleic acids from other types of samples.

Cette invention a trait à une technique de purification d'ARN viral provenant d'un prélèvement biologique. Cette technique consiste à provoquer la lyse d'une enveloppe virale pour libérer l'ARN et à faire passer le lysat par un filtre en poly(fluorure de vinylidène) (PVDF) hydrophile et poreux pour capturer l'ARN viral. Le filtre sur lequel l'ARN s'est fixé est ensuite lavé pour en enlever les protéines, les lipides et d'autres substances contaminantes. L'ARN est extraite du filtre par utilisation d'une solution exempte de ribonucléase (Rnase) à faible force ionique afin d'obtenir une solution contenant de l'ARN viral purifié. On récupère ensuite l'ARN dans cette solution. La technique selon cette invention se prête également à la purification d'acides nucléiques provenant d'autres types d'échantillons.
