Ethanol Precipitation

 Purpose:  To purifiy DNA.

Protocol

 1. Add:
Chemical Volume
100% EtOH ≥ 2.5X
3 M NaOAc 0.1X
Glycoblue 1/300X

where X = volume of the sample

 2. Incubate for at least 1 hour at -80 C
      For smaller fragments it is helpful to incubate overnight
 3. Centrifuge at 4 C
 4. Remove supernatant and add 500 uL chilled 75% EtOH
 5. Centrifuge at minutes at 4 C
 6. Dry the pellet in the hood 
 7. Resuspend pellet in desired volume ddH20
 8. Store DNA at -20C

Recommended Centrifuge Times

Spin Size Tube Time RPM
1 15 mL 30 3000
1 1.5 mL 25 12000
2 1.5 mL 10 10000
