Qiagen Plasmid Prep - Buffer Compositon and Preparation


Note: Buffer compositions are given per liter of solution. Do not autoclave isopropanol-containing buffer, but sterilize by filtration instead. Buffer calculations are base on Tris base adjusted to pH with HCl (Tris-Cl). If using Tris-HCl reagent, the qualities used should be recalculated. Buffer P1 - Resuspension Buffer 50mM Tris-Cl, pH 8.0, 10mM EDTA, 100ug/mL RNase A Storage condition - 4 C after adding RNase A Prep - Dissolve 6.06g Tris base, 3.72g EDTA-2H 0 in 800mL dH20. Adjust the pH to 8.0 with HCl.
2 o

Adjust the volume to 1 liter with dH O. Add 100mg RNase A per liter of P1.
