I'm more used to extracting DNA using spin column kits, but trying to work out what is the best non-kit option, in terms of yield and DNA quality.
do You extract from fresh tissue or from paraffin embedded tissue?
Cell lines in culture
Phenol-Chloroform Method is better. Non-Kits method is better and reliable.
Further modification may be helpful in increasing the yield of DNA.
Phenol-Chloroform is the method by which you can get pure DNA. Although the yield may be less than that o salting out method.
Phenol chloroform is best method
What's better for DNA extraction from tissue?
Phenol-Chloroform Method is better
Wondering whether the use of DNA from saliva (or non-tissue-specific DNA in general) is generally considered to be acceptable for methylation analysis. I'm interested to look at this within the...
