I have Qiagen DNA mini Kit (50 preps x 2 with expiration date Sept 2016) buffers are not mixed with EtOH. Do you think they will still work? Low Budget problem.
It should, I would try it out on some not-so-precious sample first though.
Thank you
try with very little amount of sample/ one sample.
Check for precipitation or color change in your reagents. If those are fine then you can go ahead with kits available to you now.
Check the color after the first step.
Thank you all
