Important Notes:
For Gel Extraction
Problems |
Possible reasons |
Solutions |
The gel slice is hard to dissolve |
Agarose gel of high percentage (> 2 %) is used |
Add 1000 µl of DF Buffer to 1 volume of the gel slice. |
The size of the gel slice is too large |
If the gel slice is more than 300 mg, separate it into multiple tubes. |
|
Low or none recovery of DNA fragment |
The column is loaded with too much agarose gel |
The maximum volume of the gel slice is 300 mg per column. |
Elution of DNA fragment is not efficient |
Make sure the pH of Elution Buffer or ddH2O is between 7.0- 8.5. |
|
Make sure that the elution solution has been completely absorbed by the membrane before centrifuge. |
||
The size of DNA fragment is larger than 5 Kb |
Preheat the elution solution to 60 °C before use. |
|
Eluted DNA contains non-specific DNA fragment |
Contaminated scalpel |
Using a new or clean scalpel. |
DNA fragment is denatured. |
Incubate eluted DNA at 95 °C for 2 min, then cool down slowly to reanneal denatured DNA. |
|
Poor perfor- mance in the downstream applications |
Salt residue remains in eluted DNA fragment |
Wash the column twice with Wash Buffer. |
Ethanol residue remains in eluted DNA fragment |
Do discard the flow-through after washing with Wash Buffer and centrifuge for an additional 3 min. |
For PCR Clean-Up
Problems |
Possible reasons |
Solutions |
Low or none recovery of DNA fragment |
Apply more than 100 µl of PCR product |
If the PCR product is more than 100 µl, separate it into multiple tubes. |
Elution of DNA fragment is not efficient |
Make sure the pH of Elution Buffer or ddH2O is between 7.0- 8.5. |
|
Make sure that the elution solution has been completely absorbed by the column membrane before centrifuga- tion. |
