Using kit from Macherey-Nagel to perform a Miniprep
- Grow cells over night in 5ml liquid LB medium
- Spin down cells from 2 ml in 2ml tube at 14000×g for 1 min
- Remove supernatant.
- Repeat with another 2ml in the same tube
- Keep the remaining 1ml of cells for freezing if required
- Add 150µl resuspension buffer and re-suspend all cells
- Add 250µl lysis buffer (blue) and invert 5 times
- Add 350µl neutralisation buffer and invert till the whole liquid is no longer blue
- Spin down the cell debris and genomic DNA at 20.000×g for 3 min
- Prepare the columns in tubes (or on the Vacuum manifold)
- Add liquid without any pellet (better to add less supernatant than accidentally add gDNA)
- Spin down (1min at 13000×g) (or vacuum) and remove flow through
- Add 450µl washing solution and spin down (or vacuum)
- Remove flow through and spin down to remove last bits of liquid
- Move column to 1.5ml collection tube.
- Add 30µl elution buffer AE
- Incubate for 2 min
- Spin down (1min at 13000×g)
- Add 30µl elution buffer AE
- Incubate for 2 min
- Spin down (1min at 13000×g)
- Label tube and trash column
