we started with 20 mg of human nails, unfortunately after DNA extraction by kit method and organic method, we didn't observe any bands on agarose gel.

our instructor said nails don't need any special treatment than other tissues.

I think may be starting material is low specially that nails are full of keratin

or cells don't undergo lysis well?

samples concentration by nano drop were non-relevant

Can you help me in this troubleshooting?
