I'd assume because it has a lot of cells suitable for DNA extraction. I don't really know, we've always used strawberries because if the high amount of seeds in a small space.

What is the difference between the strawberry DNA extraction procedure and the human DNA extraction procedure?

There are several differences. First, you use different materials to conduct each proceedure. With plants, you need baking soda, with human DNA you do not. Also, with human DNA you do not want to mix your mixtures. You want to keep your tube still. With plant DNA, you have to flick your test tube to make the DNA appear. These are just a few of the differences in the proceedures.


What is the purpose of alcohol when extracting DNA?

According to me, we use alcohol because DNA is insoluble in alcohol, it aggregates together, giving a pellet in centrifugal and we can see a precipitated DNA with naked eyes (that we suppose to see in experiment i.e DNA extraction)....


Why we use two washing buffers in DNA extraction using biosprint?

the washing buffers contain ethanol which precipitating DNA molecules and form clumps. DNA is insoluble in alcohol so come together in an alcohol buffer.


What is Buffer ATL?

Buffer ATL is a proprietary chemical used for DNA extraction and purification. It's used to induce lysis of cell tissues in order to release and expose the cell's DNA during the beginning stages of of the extraction process. I think the letters "ATL" stand for "Animal Tissue Lysis." It's part of the DNeasy protocol from Qiagen. I use this every day during my extraction and purification of DNA from various snake species.
