General description

Chloroform:Isoamyl Alcohol 24:1 is an organic reagent used for DNA extraction and precipitation.

Application

Chloroform:Isoamyl alcohol 24:1 has been used:

  • to extract bacterial genomic DNA, DNA from Daphnia spp, and salmon sperms.
  • for a single DNA precipitation step for high-quality DNA extraction.
  • for protein extraction and RNAse treatment.
  • in phenolic oxidation to separate phenolics from the aqueous portion.
  • for RNA isolation from brown adipose tissue (BAT), inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT), and epididymal adipose tissue (eWAT).
  • in modified cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) method to extract total RNA from Impatiens balsamina.

Fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, is an attractive model organism for transcriptional and chromatin biology research. Such research is contingent on accurate annotation of transcription start sites (TSSs). However, comprehensive genome-wide maps of TSSs and their usage across commonly applied laboratory
