Info: Supplier Page 

We are generally studying the mechanisms responsible for the establishment and maintenance of immune tolerance in the periphery

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Prepping plasmid DNA from transformed bacteria for cloning experiments

Starting Material

Transformed chemically competent bacterial cells

Tips

If larger yields are required, running multiple mini preps in parallel can more consistently produce more DNA than a midiprep

Results Summary

Consistently get pure, high (100s of ng/uL) yields when following the protocol as written with no further optimization. Running 3 mini preps in parallel through the same column usually gives a higher yield than a single midi prep at a lower cost.
