Miniprep- Prepare Plasmid DNA for electrophoresis

Follow miniprep protocol to prepare plasmid DNA samples for gel electrophoresis. Protocol for bacteria digestion:

  • Transfer 1.5 mL of culture into eppendorf
  • Spin for 20 sec and remove supernatant
  • Add 100 uL of solution 1 and vortex to resuspend
  • Add 200 uL of solution 2
  • Add 150 uL of solution 3
  • Mix by inverting, white ppt appears
  • Spin for 3 minutes
  • Pour supernatant in new labeled tube, add 1 mL of ethanol and mix
  • Spin for another 3 minutes and remove supernatant
  • Spin to remove resitudal liquid and then resuspend in 50 uL of MiliQ (ultrapure water) (1 sec on vortex, don't resuspend pellet)
  • Spin for 1 minute
  • Read to digest!


  • Solution 1
  • 90 g glucose
  • 10 mL 0.5M EDTA
  • 6.25 mL 2M Tris pH 8
  • Make up to 500 mL

Solution 2

  • 50 mL 10% SDS
  • 20 mL 5M NaOH
  • Make up to 500 mL

Solution 3

  • 147 g Potassium acetate
  • 57.5 mL glacial acetic acid
  • Make up to 500 mL


Digest using enzymes EcorI (1microlitre) and PS21 (1 microlitre) to digest 10 microlitres of DNA.

Orange buffer (2microlitres) optimal for both restriction enzymes' activity.

6 microlitres of distilled water added to achieve appropriate dilutions.

Leave at 37C (water bath) for 45 minutes.
