For 2-6 months genomic DNA can be stored at +2 to +8°C. For long term storage keep genomic DNA at -15 to - 25°C or -70°C to -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles as this may cause shearing of the DNA.
Add 1/10 volume of 3M NaAcetate pH 5.2 and 2 - 2.5 volumes of ice cold 100% ethanol. Mix and store at -20°C for >1 hr to precipitate the DNA. Recover the DNA by centrifugation at full speed in a microcentrifuge for 15-20 min. Pour off the ethanol and wash the pellet twice with 70% ethanol at room temperature. Allow the pellet to air dry and resuspend the DNA in an appropriate volume of TE buffer or water.
Elution Buffer M: 10 mM Tris pH 8.5 – 9
