I was given a tube of GFP DNA to use for a transfection and the quality of the DNA according to several repeats of readings on the NanoDrop is very poor. The A260/A280 ratio is around .6. Is it possible for me to run the isolated DNA through the isolation kit once more to clean the DNA and get a higher ratio? Or would that harm the DNA in the isolate?
I am using the QIAamp DNA Blood Mini Kit.
