* | * Spin in microcentrifuge at 13,000 rpm (if possible at 4˚C) for 10-15 min. | ||
* | * Aspirate supernatant carefully not to disturb pellet. | ||
* Resuspend in | * Add 500 µl 70% ethanol (stored at -20˚C). | ||
* Spin in microcentrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 2 min. | |||
* Aspirate supernatant. Dry pellet at room temperature for 10 min (can be heated gently). | |||
* Resuspend in water or TE buffer. TE buffer is generally preferred, because the DNA would be more stable. If the sample does not redissolve it can be heated at 50-60˚C for half an hour to help it. |
