See more pictures of alternative fuel vehicles. You've probably heard about fuel cells. In 2003, President Bush announced a program called the Hydrogen Fuel Initiative (HFI) during his State of the Union Address.
Phenol-Chloroform Extraction. Purpose: Phenol-chloroform extractions are done when you need to purify DNA from a solution that also has proteins. The DNA will dissolve in the aqueous layer, and everything else will go into the non-aqueous layer.. Phenol:chloroform. 1  Add one equal volume of phenol:chloroform:IAA (found in 4C in room 263) to DNA solution. 2  The phenol:chloroform solution has two layers â be sure to take the bottom layer!!! 3  Mix gently; spin for 5 minutes at max speed. 4  Remove aqueous layer (top layer) to a new tube.
These factors might affect the extraction efficiency and/or recovery of RNA from leaf tissues. Two methods of RNA extraction were compared. One is a conventional method using an acid guanidinium thiocyanateâwaterâsaturated phenolâchloroform mixture (AGPC method) (Chomczynski and Sacchi, 1987).ith a DNA probe for rice rbcS, only a single band was observed on the blotted membrane. These results indicate that the improved extraction method of RNA with benzyl chloride is useful for quantitative and qualitative analysis of RNA in plant tissues such as stiff leaves of rice.
