Abstract

A simple method for the Isolation of pure and highyield DNA from whole blood, suitable for restriction enzyme digestion, is described. The Steps of the procedure are as follows: Cell lysis with NH₄C1, NaHCO₃, EDTA; digestion with proteinase K in the presence of SDS; extraction with phenol-chloroform-isoamyl alcohol; and precipitation with ethanol. The 260 nm/280 nm absorbance ratio showed a mean value of 2, and the average yield of DNA was 212 µg/l. Such DNA preparations were found to be quite suitable for digestion by a variety of restriction endonucleases, as well as for the analysis of gene disorders by different biological methods. The method proposed appears to be useful in clinical chemistry laboratories.
