Purpose of
DNA
extraction…
Isolation of DNA is often the first
step before:
• DNA profiling
• cloning
• disease diagnosis
• DNA sequencing
• genetically modified organisms (GMO) -
agriculture, pharmaceutical
• Environmental testing, bioterrorism
… so it is an
important lab
skill to learn.
Summarize this purpose in your
lab book.

Laboratory
Protocol
1. Obtain the cup containing 10 ml Gatorade from
your instructor.
2. Take the Gatorade from the cup into your mouth,
and swish the water around vigorously for 60
seconds. Gently chew the insides of your
cheeks. It is NOT helpful to drawblood!
3. Carefully expel the liquid into the plastic vial.
4. Dispose of the paper cup in the trash.

Cell
Collection
Gently chewing the
inside of the mouth
combined with a water
mouth wash is used to
dislodge epithelial cells
lining the mouth
Ample cell collection is
critical for success.

• Gatorade contains salt
• Na+ ions of NaCI
bind to the phosphate groups of DNA molecules, neutralizing the electric charge of the DNA molecules.
• The addition of
NaCI allows the DNA molecules to come together instead of repelling each other.

Laboratory
Protocol
5. Obtain the detergent from your workstation, and
add 2 ml of detergent to your plastic vial.
6. Place the cap on the vial and gently invert your
tube 5 times (don’t shake it!).
7. Let your vial sit
undisturbed for 10 minutes.

Why Detergent?
To break open the cell and nuclear membranes, allowing
the DNA to be released into the solution

Laboratory
Protocol
8. Add a pinch of meat tenderizer to your vial.
9. Place the cap on your vial
and gently invert it a few
times.
10. Let sit for 10 minutes.

Why Add
Meat
Tenderizer?
• Meat tenderizer is made of enzymes that
break down proteins in meat.
• In this case, the enzymes destroy
proteins that bind DNA.
• This treatment increases the amount of
intact DNA that is extracted.

Laboratory
Protocol
11.Gently pour COLD ethanol into your vial so that
it forms a layer on top of the Gatorade solution
12.Let sit for 10 minutes.

Adding Ice
Cold
Alcohol?
• DNA does not dissolve in alcohol.
• The addition of cold alcohol makes the DNA
clump together and precipitate out of
solution.
• Precipitated DNA molecules appear as long
pieces of fluffy, stringy, web-like strands.
• Microscopic oxygen bubbles “aggregate” ,
or “fuse” together, as the DNA precipitates.
• The larger, visible air bubbles “lift” the DNA
out of solution.
