We know that DNA extraction process begins with the mechanical separation of the nuclear contents from the rest of the cell, which is carried out by sonication, agitation and the addition of SDS detergents. To further break down cell components and then draw off the DNA associated proteins, researchers typically add ammonium, sodium acetate or similar salts during this stage of the procedure. Alcohol is trapping the water and facilitates Na+ to interact with the PO3-, and then precipitate DNA, so what is more efficient using of ethanol or isopropanol?
