A260/A280: 1.8 - 2.0 (pure DNA)
A260/A230: 2.0 - 2.2 (low salt/solvent contamination)
What is the positive reaction of this test?
A260/A280: < 1.8 (protein contamination) or > 2.1 (RNA contamination)
A260/A230: < 1.8 (salt, phenol, EDTA, carbohydrate contamination)
What is the negative reaction of this test?
Tris-EDTA buffer
What is the reagent of this test?
Estimate DNA concentration and assess DNA purity
Principle
Tris-EDTA buffer

Dissolves and becomes stabilized
What is the reaction if the DNA isolate when reacted with TE buffer?
Maintains a stable pH
Function of the Tris component
EDTA chelates magnesium ions that are necessary for DNase enzymes to degrade DNA
Function of EDTA
