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.
for cell lysis

phenol helps to remove non polar proteins and lipids from the solution

DNA isolation is a based on the principle of purification. DNA samples are isolated through the use of physical and chemical methods. Friedrich Miescher conducted the first isolation of DNA in 1869.
phenol is used in order to remove protein impurities from the DNA to yield pure dna while chloroform prevents shearing of DNA during isolation.
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.
Sucrose performs the function of osmoregulation in the protocol of DNA isolation from blood
it act as as a cationic detergent for the isolation dna from the given sample
stabilization of phenol against oxidation
It solubilizes lipids and a lot of proteins to remove them from the DNA.
It sequester carbohydrates in the solution
the role seveg in plant DNA extractions is to remove chlorophyll and similar pigments
to remove excess phenol from DNA to remove excess phenol from DNA
for cell lysis
It is an antioxidant.
