to neutralise the alkaline conditions.
In plasmid isolation RNA behaves as an unwanted material so to separate it out RNAase is required which breaks down the RNA. This is done to get pure quality of the product.
for phase separation
for cell lysis
what is the function of sorbitol in producing plant protoplasts
Purification of the DNA sample. Phenol is carbolic acid and is used to dissolve proteins and other cellular debris associated with the DNA being prepared for analysis.

it reduces the availability of solvents. that is dissociation of H+ ond OH- ions takes place. which makes the macromoleules to condence or crowd. and let to precipitate
The role that tris-HCI plays in plasmid isolation is to maintain the pH of the solution. This prevents degradation of the plasmids. Tris stands for the organic compound, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, which is a common pH buffer. HCl is a salt acid called hydrochloride. This is added as a buffer as well to add stabilization.
Plasmid isolation involves growing the plasmid under conditions that are suitable for genes to come into play. For example the gene for ampicillin resistance; the bacteria with plasmids are placed with ampicillin so their genes can be seen for those who survived. Sodium hydroxide acts a detergent in the extraction process. A detergent's main role is to break down cell walls and cell membranes. How so? They act as poking holes into membranes. However, for the isolation of plasmid, the NaOH acts
It splices the genome or plasmid in a specific location (EcoRI).
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.
It splices the genome or plasmid in a specific location (EcoRI).
For DNA to precipitate down when ethanol added it needs a higher salt concentration which will allow it to precipitate more accurately, hence this salt is given in form of Na acetate which is the best salt for the purpose or else NaCl
The role of NaCl or sodium chloride in RNA isolation is part of the denaturing process. It is often called the wash step.
Bromophenol blue is the tracking dye in electrophoresis. Being of small molecular size, it races towards the other electrode before the DNA. It is used so that you don't mistakenly let the DNA get washed off the gel and into the buffer solution.
Glacial drift
It sequester carbohydrates in the solution
