DNA Affinity Chromatography, DNA affinity chromatography can be a low-tech method using gravity flow at 4°C, a disposable chromatography column, and DNA affinity resin prepared in the laboratory (see Preparation of a DNA Affinity Column). Include 10-20% glycerol and 0.025-0.1% NP-40 in the column buffers to suppress losses due to nonspecific adsorption of protein to surfaces. Load the protein in a buffer that is compatible with binding of the protein to its target site.

A simple and inexpensive chamber for regulating gaseous environment of small culture plates, such as those used for culture of preimplantation embryos, can be constructed using disposable media-filtration devises such as Corning’s 115-ml system. The following is a description of how to make such a device. - [Read Mini-Chamber for Regulating Gaseous Environment During Culture]
