Molecular - Chapter 4 - Nucleic Acid
Extraction Questions and Answers

Purpose of nucleic acid extraction - answer to release nucleic acid (DNA or
RNA) from the cell to use for subsequent
procedures by lysing cell without
damaging nucleic acid

Target should be free from? - answer contamination (protein,
lipid, other nucleic acid)

Methods for DNA isolation - answer 1- organic,
2- inorganic, and
3- solid-phase

Methods for RNA isolation - answer 1-organic and
2-solid-phase

Steps of Nucleic Acid Extraction - answer 1-Lyse the cell to Release cellular
material;
2-Purify target nucleic acid;
3-Determine concentration and purity

why determining purity? - answer Quality control before performing the test.

Can be analyzed without
DNA amplification and why? - answer Blood
Buffy coat
Bone marrow
Solid tissue
Lavage fluids
Bacterial cultures
Fungi
Organelles, mitochondria.

Because quantity is sufficient.

What samples are adequate for amplification by PCR? - answer Dried blood;

Early DNA Extraction Methods - answer Density gradient centrifugation
Human DNA first isolated by Miescher in 1869

Organic dna extraction - answer uses organic chemicals, phenol, chloroform
(dissolve hydrophobic contaminants)

Organic chemicals for dna extraction - answer Phenol;

Chloroform.

Inorganic dna extraction - answer uses inorganic chemicals, detergents,
ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), acetic acid, salt (salting out, spooling)

Inorganic chemicals for dna extraction - answer detergents;

ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA);

acetic acid;

salt (salting out, spooling)
