λ/HindIII fragments (10 ng in 500 µL) were precipitated using 1 mL of ethanol in the presence of 0.1 mol/L sodium acetate and analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis.


Lane 1 : λ/HindIII (Contorol; no precipitation treatment)
Lane 2 : λ/HindIII+Ethachinmate 3 µl (immediate centrifugation)
Lane 3 : λ/HindIII Incubation at -20 °C overnight
Lane 4 : λ/HindIII Incubation at -80 °C for 20 min.
Under the condition of 0.1 mol/L sodium acetate, adding Ethachinmate allows for quantitative recovery of trace amounts of DNA without the need for low-temperature incubation.
Synthetic 21mer RNA samples (10 ng, 20 ng, 40 ng, and 80 ng) were subjected to ethanol precipitation under the following conditions:
| Sample | Synthesized 21 mer RNA (10 ng,20 ng,40 ng,80 ng) |
|---|---|
| Ethanol precipitation | Each 100 µL RNA solution was added 3M Sodium acetate 3.3 µL and Ethachinmate 1 µL. All samples were immediately precipitated after adding Ethanol. |
| Electrophoresis | 15 % polyacylamide gel |
