Lab Protocols

Here are some protocols that we use in our lab that you can download as PDFs and print. At present, the following items are available:

General protocols. Single document including DNA extraction, PCR, PCR purification, DNA sequencing, etc.

Fungal DNA mini-prep using the E.Z.N.A. kit.

Forensic DNA mini-prep using the E.Z.N.A. kit. We have found this to be a very effective method for small samples.

High Quality DNA maxi-prep for single copy, protein coding genes and other template challenges.

Cloning protocols using the Topo-TA (fast and high efficiency) and Classic-TA (good and affordable) kits.

Generating competent cells for cloning.

Primer protocols in html or pdf.

New: RPB2 primer sequences and map html or pdf.

More protocols will be posted later.
