Preparative and analytical purification of DNA from agarose.

Abstract

Two procedures were developed for removing DNA from agarose after electrophoretic separation of DNA fragments according to size. Both involve dissolving the DNA-containing agarose in NaI. The preparative technique uses binding of DNA to glass in the presence of NaI. The method is rapid and convenient, and DNA of all molecular weight ranges can be recovered in high yield and without degradation. The DNA is free of agarose and remains susceptible to digestion by restriction enzymes. The analytical technique uses selective precipitation of DNA with acetone and has been adapted to molecular hybridization scans of sequences in agarose gels. The sequence-monitoring system is quantitative, directly measuring the proportion of the probe complementary to a given DNA fragment and vice versa. It is especially suitable for analyzing restriction enzyme digests of DNA in mapping experiments.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
