Product Name Acetate Buffer, 3 M, pH 5.2, Molecular Biology Grade
Catalog No. ATR-B-YJL-0193
Description A 3 M sodium acetate buffer at pH 5.2, prepared with DEPC-treated water and certified free of DNase, RNase, and protease activities. This high-concentration acetate buffer is a fundamental reagent for nucleic acid precipitation and purification workflows. When used at one-tenth volume with ethanol or isopropanol, the acetate ions neutralize the negative charge on the DNA phosphate backbone, facilitating efficient precipitation and pellet formation.
Intended Use Precipitation of DNA and RNA from aqueous solution using ethanol or isopropanol in molecular biology workflows.
Principle / Technology Sodium acetate charge neutralization of nucleic acid phosphate backbone enabling alcohol precipitation
Detection Method Spectrophotometric quantification or gel electrophoresis of recovered nucleic acid
Sample Type DNA or RNA in aqueous solution from enzymatic reactions, extraction procedures, or column eluates
Performance Range / Specifications Final concentration in precipitation: 0.3 M sodium acetate with 2.5 volumes ethanol or 0.7 volumes isopropanol
Sensitivity / LOD Typical recovery: ≥90% for DNA fragments ≥100 bp; ≥80% for oligonucleotides ≥20 nt
Specificity Broad nucleic acid precipitation; no sequence or base composition bias
Reaction Conditions / Protocol Add 1/10 volume 3 M sodium acetate, mix; add 2.5 volumes cold 100% ethanol; incubate at –20 °C for ≥30 min; centrifuge 15 min at 4 °C; wash with 70% ethanol
