Figure 2. Quality assessment of DNA samples extracted with MasterPure DNA purification kit and Agencourt DNAdvance.
(A) 1% agarose gel for MasterPure samples. (B) 1% agarose gel for DNAdvance samples; same amount of DNA was loaded onto each lane. Lanes 1–3 present fragmented DNA spread along the lane, while lanes 4–9 present majority of the DNA in a distinct band above the 10 kb marker position. (C) TapeStation results for MasterPure. (D) TapeStation results for DNAdvance. Dark grey—Homogenisation with plastic pestle; Light grey—homogenisation ceramic beating beads. (E) DNA fragments distribution for MasterPure samples. (F) DNA fragments distribution for DNAdvance samples. Error bars in (E) and (F) indicate standard error of the mean.
