Could you specify - How long would you like the fragments to be? Thanks.

Shobha Kumari

You can use qiagen genomic DNA extraction kit, they give full and very easy protocol.

good luck

Ingo Schroedter

If you have 5 to 10 million cells DNAzol is an option.

I would not use it if you had less cells.

Hadjkacem Basma

you can use Trizol.
