DNA Barcoding Protocol: Isolating DNA by Precipitation

Jason Williams, DNA Learning Center, goes through the steps involved in isolating DNA from an animal or plant sample.

PLEASE NOTE: this technique is used with the original DNALC barcoding protocol. A more recent version using silica resin is included in the current DNA barcoding protocol used in DNALC programs (see video). Check the protocol to ensure you are watching the matching video.

Duration: 14 minutes, 9 seconds
