Ethanol precipitation of DNA: Primarily used to clean-up DNA that has been stored in phenol
1. In the 1.5mL epi tube containing the DNA sample to clean, add 1mL of COLD 100% ethanol and 100ul sodium acetate (NaOAc) pH 5.2. Mix by inverting
2. Place in -20°C freezer for at least 3 hours, overnight is fine
3. Spin at 14,000 rpm in a chilled centrifuge at 4°C for 10-15 min
4. Discard supernatant. Careful not to disturb pellet! Pellet may be invisible
5. Re-suspendin1mlfresh70%ethanol,centrifugefor5minat14,000rpm
6. Discardsupernatant
