Reaction phenol with chloroform?
No they don't react together. but phenol is soluble in CHCl3.
Role of phenol chloroform in DNA isolation?
phenol is used in order to remove protein impurities from the DNA to yield pure dna while chloroform prevents shearing of DNA during isolation.
What is the function of buffered phenol chloroform in DNA extraction?
Phenol and chloroform are very hydrophobic and are used to remove non-polar bio- molecules (proteins, fragments of membranes, lipids etc) in the extraction.
Role of phenol chloroform isoamyl alcohol in plasmid DNA extraction?
The actual role of phenol chloroform isoamyl alcohol in a plasmid DNA extraction is to purify the DNA. The alcohol will act in part as a detergent.
Function of phenol chloroform in plasmid isolation?
removes the remaining protein which is left after denaturation
What is the uses and importance's of phenol chloroform method in DNA extraction?
importance of phenol
Reaction phenol with chloroform?

Function chloroform in extraction DNA from blood?
to remove excess phenol from DNA to remove excess phenol from DNA

What is the principle of DNA isolation using phenol chloroform method?
Phenol chloroform extraction is the oldest and still widely followed method for the isolation and extraction of DNA from plant and animal cells. The phenol, chloroform (and also isoamyl alchohol) are added in a specific ratio of 25: 24:1.Phenol: Phenol dissolves the organic impurities, like proteins etc.chloroform: Provides density to phenol so that it settles below water during phase separation.Isoamylalchohol: Used to prevent phosgene from reaction of chloroform with air.The Phenol:Chloroform:Isoamylalchohol (PCI) solution is added to the cell extract after removal removal of debris. After proper mixing, cetrifugation is done to separate the phases. Two phases are formed: The upper, the aqueous phase that contains DNA, the lower phase, that phenol phase, that contains organic impurities. Thus two phases are separated by a very clearly defined boundary of coagulated proteins.The aqueous phase is precipitated and then the DNA could be pelleted after rounds of purifications.
What is the function of phenol chloroform isoamyl alcohol in plasmid isolation?
it helps in the removal of proteins from nucleic acid
Water and chloroform are mixedthe components separate into two layerseach of which smells strongly of chloroformHow would you quickly and easily confirm which layer is water and which is chloroform?
Always the bottom layer will be of chloroform and upper layer of water due to difference in the density.
Explain briefly how you would separate chloroform or dichloromethane extract from an aqueous solution using a separating funnel?
Both chloroform and dichloroform are denser than water. You will see two layer in separating funnel. The lower layer will be chloroform and upper layer would be aqueous layer.
Is chloroform soluble in water?
No they are not. Water will float on chloroform as the latter is more denser than the former.
