Common challenges faced when dealing with restriction mapping problems include difficulties in accurately determining the order and distances between restriction sites, resolving overlapping fragments, and interpreting complex patterns of restriction enzyme digestion. Additionally, issues such as incomplete digestion, DNA degradation, and variations in enzyme activity can complicate the mapping process.
We generally add milliQ (DNase free) water. For digestion water is added usually. It provides right Hydrogen bonds between enzyme amino acid residues and bases present in the restriction sites. Utpal Roy
I believe that it is used to stabilize the pH levels so the enzyme activity isn't effected.
Such an enzyme is called a restriction endonuclease
The restriction enzyme used to cut the DNA was EcoRI.
Restriction enzymes are used to fragment DNA by cutting it at specific recognition sites. These enzymes are naturally found in bacteria as a defense mechanism against foreign DNA, and are commonly used in molecular biology techniques like restriction enzyme digestion.

BSA is used to stabilize some enzymes during digestion of DNA and to prevent adhesion of the enzyme to reaction tubes and other vessels. This protein does not affect other enzymes that do not need it for stabilization.
The restriction enzyme EcoRI cuts DNA at a specific sequence of bases, which is GAATTC.
A restriction enzyme is a type of endonuclease. Endonucleases are enzymes that cut DNA at specific sequences, while restriction enzymes specifically cut DNA at recognition sites called restriction sites.
The restriction enzyme EcoR1 specifically cuts the DNA sequence at the recognition site GAATTC.
The enzyme responsible for cutting DNA molecules is called a restriction enzyme.
