Data

Recovery of Trace Amounts of Nucleic Acid

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.

Result

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.


Low-Molecular-Weight RNA Ethanol Precipitation

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.

Affect for enzymes
Data 1. Restriction Enzyme Digestion and T4 DNA Ligase

λ DNA was subjected to digestion, ligation, and re-digestion using restriction enzymes (Hae III, Hind III) and T4 DNA Ligase, in the presence or absence of Ethachinmate (1 µL per 10 µL reaction mixture).

Result

Ethachinmate did not affect the anzyme activity of restriction ligation efficiency.


Data 2. Reverse Transcriptase

In the presence of Ethachinmate, [3H]dTMP was incorporated into the poly(rA)·(dT)12-8 template using AMV Reverse Transcriptase (RTase).
