  • Applications:
    1. Identification of insert presence
  • Time to complete protocol:
    • Lab time: 15min, 15min.
    • Waiting time: 1-3hours
  • Approximate cost of materials: $0.00

Method from primary and secondary reagents

Primary & secondary Reagents Required including controls
  • Enzyme
  • 10x DNA
  • DNA for digestion
Method including controls
For 20uL reation volume
  1. Make the following reaction mixture on ice.
    • Reaction Mixture
      • 0.5uL Enzyme 1
      • 0.5uL Enzyme 2
        • Add enzymes last only take out of the freezer once ready to add.
      • 2uL appropriate 10x buffer (see table on fridge)
      • 2uL 10x BSA
      • 10uL MilliQ
      • 5uL DNA
        • If performing the same digest for multiple DNA samples make up mastermix of buffer enzyme soultion and make 15uL aliquots to which to add the DNA.
        • Volume DNA may vary depending on concentration, vary water volume to achieve 20uL reaction volume.
  2. Incubate for 1-3 hrs at 37 degrees.
  3. Stop reaction with addition of 5uL 6x DNA loading dye.
  4. Can be stored at -20 or run on gel immediately.
Equipement Required
  • microfuge tubes
  • Ice box and ice
  • 37 degree incubator
  • Pipettes and tips
