High-Speed Plasmid Mini Kit Protocol
Geneaid High-Speed Plasmid Mini Kit
Add provided RNase A to the PD1 Buffer and store at 4ºC; if precipitates have formed in the PD2 Buffer, warm the buffer in a 37ºC water bath, followed by gentle shaking to dissolve. Add absolute ethanol (see the bottle label for volume) to the Wash Buffer prior to initial use.
- Harvesting: Transfer cultured bacterial cells to a 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube. Centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g for 1 minute and discard the supernatant. Repeat this step if necessary.
- Re-suspension: Add 200 µl of PD1 Buffer (RNase A added) to the tube and re-suspend the cell pellet by vortex or pipetting.
- Lysis: Add 200 µl of PD2 Buffer and mix gently by inverting the tube 10 times. Do not vortex to avoid shearing the genomic DNA. Let stand at room temperature for at least 2 minutes to ensure the lysate is homologous.
- Neutralizatio: Add 300 µl of PD3 Buffer and mix immediately by inverting the tube 10 times. Do not vortex. Centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g for 3 minutes.
- DNA Binding: Place a PD Column in a 2 ml Collection Tube. Add the supernatant from Step 4 to the PD Column and centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g for 30 seconds.
Discard the flow-through and place the PD Column back in the 2 ml Collection Tube.
- Wash: Add 400 µl of W1 Buffer into the PD Column. Centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g for 30 seconds. Discard the flow-through and place the PD Column back in the 2 ml Collection Tube. Add 600 µl of Wash Buffer (ethanol added) into the PD Column.
Centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g for 30 seconds. Discard the flow through and place the PD Column back in the 2 ml Collection Tube. Centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g again for 3 minutes to dry the column matrix.
- DNA Elution: Transfer the dried PD Column to a new microcentrifuge tube. Add 50 µl of Elution Buffer or TE into the center of the column matrix. Let stand for at least 2 minutes to allow the Elution Buffer or TE to be completely absorbed. Centrifuge at 14-16,000 x g for 2 minutes to elute the DNA.
