Abstract:

Based on the similarity of prokaryotic DNA to that of mitochondrial DNA, a rapid and efficient method for DNA purification from mitochondrial extracts obtained from different sources, was carried out based on the modification method described by Marmur (1983) which resulted in a high degree of purity (A260/A280=2). In addition we have applied the same technique for the first time to purify the mitochondrial DNA of platelets.

A Simple and Rapid Leaf Genomic DNA Extraction Method for Polymerase Chain Reaction Analysis

In plants, secondary metabolites and polysaccharides interfere with genomic isolation procedures and downstream reactions such as restriction enzyme analysis and gene amplification. The removal of such contaminants needs complicated and time-consuming protocols. In this study, a simple, rapid and efficient method for leaf DNA extraction was optimized. This method use small amount of plant mater...

A rapid, efficient method for purifying DNA-binding proteins. Denaturation-renaturation chromatography of human and yeast mitochondrial extracts.

We describe a novel method for the purification of DNA-binding proteins. Isolated mitochondria were lysed in boiling sodium dodecyl sulfate-containing buffer, the extracts were chromatographed on hydroxylapatite in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, and DNA-binding activities were identified after adding a large excess of nonionic detergent (Triton X-100) and assaying fractions by a gel re...

An Efficient Method For DNA Extraction From Paraffin Wax Embedded Tissues For PCR Amplification Of Human And Viral DNA

  Background and Objective: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues are a valuable source of DNA for molecular studies. We designed and optimized an efficient procedure for DNA extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Materials and Methods: Seventy three blocks of cervical paraffin-embedded tissues were investigated. DNA was extracted using 45 minutes boiling in alkaline sol...

A RAPID AND SIMPLE METHOD OF DNA EXTRACTION FROM CLINICAL SPECIMENS CONTAINING MYCOBACTERIUM LEPRAE FOR PCR ASSAYS

We describe a rapid, simple, and reliable procedure for routine isolation of Mycobacterium leprae DNA from slit-skin swab specimens. This one-step DNA extraction method is based on the utilization of ChelexR 100, a chelating ion exchange resin. Slit-skin swab specimens from seven untreated leprosy patients at Baba Baghi Leprosy Hospital in Iran were processed by this procedure. The polymer...
