Protocol

Preparation of Polymerase Chain Reaction Templates from Embryonic and Adult Mouse Tissue Samples

Abstract

A simple cell or tissue lysate can provide a sufficient quality and amount of template DNA for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This protocol can be used to prepare embryonic tissues, yolk sac, ear punch, toe, or 1- to 2-mm (maximum 5 mm) tail samples for PCR analysis.
