I am in need of an inexpensive, reproducible and sensitive method. Could I use ethidium bromide?
If you have the possibility of excitation with 480nm you'd better use SYBR Green I or PicoGreen or related DNA dye. They are 100- to 1000-fold more sensitive than EtBr.
Picogreen will be better option here if the DNA is double stranded
Pico Green
You may have to use any of the fluorescent dyes like Syber Green than EtBr for such low concn. of DNA
Dear dr I dont have sybr green dye except sybr green master mix for qPCR could I use it instead ????
Should work.
Try the Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100. It offers very sensitive measurement.
is negatively charged NPs preffered as vector for DNA than cationic one is it targeting to liver

I did alkali lysis of my bacteria and I got DNA concentration of 4000ng/µL, A260/A280 = 2.2 and A260/A230 of about 1.9 - what would be the expected contaminants and what shall I do?
