Isolation of DNA From Tumor Samples
A method for producing high-molecular-weight DNA from pulverized tissue, nuclear
A method for producing high-molecular-weight DNA from pulverized tissue, nuclear fractions, or cultured cells. This isolation method relies on the powerful proteolytic activity of proteinase K combined with the denaturing ability of the ionic detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid is included in the lysis buffer to inhibit DNases.
