Protocol
... Optional: Perform phenol-chloroform extraction - see protocol below . Note: Phenol-chloroform extraction...When phenol is mixed with the aqueous solution containing DNA, proteins will move into the phenol phase...Protocol: Phenol-Chloroform Extraction of DNA Samples Add an equal volume of TE-saturated phenol-chloroform... solution 2 mg/mL RNase A TE or water-saturated phenol-chloroform Chloroform 100% ethanol or isopropanol...the aqueous DNA sample. Pro-Tip Water-saturated phenol-chloroform can be used if TE-saturated is not available...recovered aqueous DNA layer. Repeat steps 2-4. Note: Phenol-chloroform is a hazardous waste - DO NOT pour down...purified without a kit it is advisable to perform a phenol/chloroform extraction of the supernatant after ...
