I did this twice.
I couldn't see any pellets after adding isopropanol the 1st time
The second time, the yield and ratio was really bad.
Are you growing it in appropriate selective medium before doing your plasmid extraction?
Also, have you tried a control plasmid alongside o make sure your mini prep procedure is working well?

Thank you so much for responding
Yes I am growing E.coli from stock in LB broth with ampicillin. After 16 hours of growth, I use it for extraction.
Same with the control
But I haven't done mini prep. Just midiprep.
Since the midi-prep is not working, try minipreps so you can see if it is a strain issue or a kit issue.
Thank you so much
I will try this
