EXTRACTION OF DNA FROM ONIONS ABSTRACT The purpose of the experiment was to experience firsthand the isolation of DNA form a plant tissue without destroying its structure and sequence. A white onion was used for the experiment. After several processes‚ DNA isolate was the visible result. Different chemical tests were performed on the DNA isolate‚ namely: Dische Test‚ Murexide Test‚ Wheeler-Johnson test and Test for Phosphate. Visible results were then noted.

The Amplification DNA Extraction from minced meat samples using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Gel Electrophoresis for Purification of the DNA. Date: 14th/21st of October 2016 Partner(s): Aisling Loughman. Aim: The aim of the experiment is learn the technique to extract DNA using minced meat samples (Pork‚ Beef and mixed)‚ amplify the extracted DNA using the PCR Technique and further visualise the extracted DNA by Gel Electrophoresis under UV light. Introduction: “The method

Report #2: Strawberries Pathway: The strawberry belongs to the family Rosaceae‚ genus Fragaria. They are one of the most widely consumed fruit throughout the world. This fruit can grow pretty much anywhere except places with extreme climate change. The United States is the largest producer of strawberries in the world. The U.S. strawberry growers mostly use fields to grow this perennial crop whereas other places use mostly greenhouses due to shorter growing seasons. The strawberries that we can

Brandon Schmetterer 3-13-15 Biology labs DNA Extraction Lab DNA is extracted from humans for genetic testing‚ for body identification‚ and for analysis of forensic evidence. The first step of DNA extraction is to take cheek cells from the test subject. Next‚ the cells must be burst open in order to release DNA. Third‚ DNA is separated from protein and debris. Lastly‚ the DNA must be isolated. A buccal swab is necessary in order to collect the cheek cells .The micropipettes are used to add lysis

Extraction of DNA from Cheek Cells Gene Smith February 29th 2013 INTRODUCTION DNA‚ deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the genetic material of every living organism and is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. DNA is often called the ‘blueprint for life’ because it contains the necessary information to carry out all the living processes of the cell (1).The purpose of this lab was to extract DNA from human cheek cells. The isolated DNA could be used inmapping or sequencing‚ PCR‚ crime scene investigation

Can you expect to extract more DNA from a strawberry or kiwi fruit? Introduction: In the experiment we were inspecting the amount of genetic materials in fruits with different numbers of chromosomes. In the experiment‚ we mashed up a strawberry/kiwi fruit (See appendix 1 figure 2) added extraction butter and ethanol to extract the DNA. A chromosome is a long thread-like cluster of genes in the nucleus. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)‚ a self-replicating material which is present in nearly all living

investigated the amount of DNA extracted from strawberries. This was done by using the independent variable of alcohol to affect the dependant variable of the amount of DNA extracted. This was done to find out if primary or secondary alcohol would create more DNA precipitate than the other. For this the primary alcohols used were; methanol and ethanol‚ and the secondary alcohol was; isopropyl. Of this the secondary alcohol‚ isopropyl was discovered to be the most effect alcohol to make DNA precipitate‚ as it

3.2.4 Genomic DNA extraction of the root tips After the treatment of the onion bulbs with lake water sample at different period of time‚ the DNA from the root tips will be ready to be extracted and observed. First of all‚ the genomic of the Allium cepa will be easily done by the already available Uneasy® Plant Mini kit (Qiagen‚ Germany) in the laboratory. All of the procedures can be performed by referring to the manual provided by the kit. A very small amount of root tips that weigh 100 mg will
