Comparison of Different Methods To Isolate High Molecular Weight DNA From Bacteria

Comparison of Different Methods To Isolate High Molecular Weight DNA From Bacteria content piece image

The first step in many sequencing experiments is to isolate nucleic acids from a specimen, and many commercial companies now offer kits specific to the extraction of high molecular weight (HMW) genomic DNA (gDNA). However, the size and quality of gDNA can vary greatly depending upon the extraction method used.

  • Sample quality
  • Sample size
  • Sequencing results
