This is very simple to use and it's a very reliable reagent for mouse genotyping

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Mouse genotyping.

Starting Material

Mouse tissue from the tail or ear.

Protocol Overview

Genotyping protocol Day1: 1. Cut the tail for about 0.5-1.0cm, tail tag the mouse, and write the records. 2. Add 200µl Directly PCR lysis buffer and 10 µl proteinase K (20ng/ml), then incubate at 65 C overnight. Day 2: 3. Heat samples at 85 C for 45min to inactivate proteinase K. 4.

The Bottom Line

We used this for the tail from the wean pups, but it also can be used for genotyping adult mouse ear or liver tissue, it's a very good reagent for mouse DNA extraction.
