Low concentration miniprep

"I have clone the gene in pUC19 and get conformation with restriction digestion. But unfortunately, I get very low quantity of plasmid after miniprep. While the control (circular pUC19) concentration is quite enough with miniprep kit that I used. I shall be very glad to know about the possible reason of low concentration and how can I improve the yield of clone plasmid from miniprep.

Yasir"

Hello!

What exactly should one look for while selecting a particular 2D gel
analysis software? Can people share their experiences about the soft wares
they are using?

Regards,

Hi Yasir
is your gene very large?what kit are you using? if the gene (and so the
plasmid) is large, maybe you should try to increase the quantity of the
bacteria when doing miniprep...

Dear experts,

I am relatively new in the Real-time PCR world. I am about to order a
bunch of hydrolysis probes quenched with the BHQ.

The company states exclusively that they can do 3' - BHQ labeling but
is this also mean that the 3'-OH will be blocked by the quencher
against extension or I must order 3' phosphorylation in addition.

Any suggestions will be most welcome...
Thanks
Ivan

Hi Yasir


e.g. Terrific Broth would help in this case (and if still necessary) bigger
volumes of culture.
Of course you shold not exceed the specs of your kit (or you will have
decrease of DNA quality)
best,
David
