Plasmid DNA Extraction Kit(PD004, PD100, PD300) --Q&A
　

Q	Why do we sometimes obtain a lower yield?
Q	Why doesn’t the Eluted DNA perform well in downstream applications?
Q	Can the plasmid DNA extraction Kit be applied on Gram (+) bacteria?
Q	Why do we get eluted plasmid contaminated with RNA?
Q	Why can’t the eluted plasmid be cut by restriction enzymes properly?
Q	Why does the Plasmid DNA Extraction Kit require two washings with two types of wash buffers (W1 and Wash Buffer) while competitors kits require one washing?
Q	Eluted plasmid appeared degraded after storage for an extended period of time.
Q	Why was Restriction enzyme digestion unsuccessful?

Gel/PCR DNA Fragments Extraction Kit (DF004, DF100, DF300)--Q&A

Q	Can the Gel/PCR DNA Kit completely remove primers or dimer products from PCR reactions?
Q	Can the Gel/PCR DNA Fragments Extraction Kit be used to clean up DIG-labeled DNA fragment?
Q	A band, smaller than the desired DNA fragment is present in the eluant.
A	The smaller band may be a single-stranded form of the PCR product. The occurrence of it could be due to the elongation of the PCR product not being complete or the PCR product is denatured during the preparation. In this case, to re-anneal the single-stranded DNA, incubate the solution at 95˚C for 2 minutes and let it cool slowly to room temperature. The re-annealed PCR product can be used as usual in all downstream applications.
Q	Why DNA recovery is lower than expected?
Q	Why doesn’t the Eluted DNA perform well in downstream applications?
