Overview
Please make sure to include:
- Protocol summarized from the Qiagen kit protocol
- A link to the nanodrop instructions for quantifying your plasmid yield Using the Nanodrop2000
- Any information that is McClean Lab specific (where to get water, where the nanodrop is, etc)
Materials
- RNase A Solution
- Buffer P1
- Ethanol (96-100%)
- Buffer PE
- Buffer P2
- Buffer N3
Before completing Plasmid Prep, add both the RNase A solution and Buffer P1 to tube and store at 2-8 degrees Celcius.
Add ethanol and Buffer PE.
At room temp, for 3 mins pellet 1-5mL of bacterial culture in centrifuge at >8000 rpm.
Resuspend pelleted bacterial cells in 250 micro-liters Buffer P1 and transfer to a microcentrifuge tube.
Then, add 250 micro-liters of Buffer P2 and mix by inversion until solution becomes clear (4-6 times). Take caution, do not allow reaction to occur >5 mins.
Add 350 micro-liters of Buffer N3 and mix immediately by inversion. Centrifuge mixture for 10 mins at 13000 rpm.
Transfer the supernatant by pipette to a spin column, centrifuge for 30-60s, and discard the flow through.
Add 500 micro-liters of PB Buffer, centrifuge for 30-60s, and discard the flow through.
Add 750 micro-liters of PE Buffer, centrifuge for 30-60s, and discard the flow-through. Centrifuge again for 1 minute to remove leftover flow-through.
Transfer the spin column to a clean microcentrifuge tube. Add 50 micro-liters of EB Buffer, let it stand for 1 minute, and centrifuge for another minute.
Notes
- Store Buffer P1 at 2-8C
- Maker sure to immediately mix by inversion when Buffer N3 is added.
